My family of 5 (with 3 small kids) as well as my sister-in-law's family of 6 (with 4 small kids) stayed in Tom's home for 3 nights and we loved our time there! Everything has been newly remodeled and was very clean and comfy. Its location is perfect in that it's private and secluded, yet only a short drive to groceries stores, restaurants, and the Twin Cities (the best combo for any fellow introverts!). Our kids loved running around the large yard and exploring in the trees around the house, and we loved it too because we didn't have to worry about disturbing anyone with their loud and active playing since there are no close neighbors. We were unfortunately in town because of a death in the family, but it really did feel like a mini retreat with the surrounding nature and peacefulness that it brings. I can only image how beautiful it must be in the later spring & summer once everything is growing again! We'll definitely stay here again if we're in the area!
