Coming from the city, I especially enjoyed the tranquil setting of Maple House. The patio surrounded by beautiful trees with a glimpse of the St. Croix River below in the valley was very special. I loved the décor, cleanliness and thoughtful extras provided in every room. The comfortable bed, plush towels, and an amazing bathroom were terrific. (All of the bathrooms are beautiful and clearly recently updated!) The kitchen is very well equipped with a great view overlooking the patio and trees. I knew in advance that the great room would not be available for my stay as it was undergoing remodeling; however, I was able to "peak" and see that it is going to be an incredible space. The person who was going to join me on this trip couldn't and I'm so glad I didn't cancel. Sydney was a delightful host and provided a wealth of information about the surrounding area.
