This was the perfect place to spend a snowy Christmas in Minneapolis. Patty has done an amazing job decorating the place and providing any amenity you could possibly need. She even left us gifts under the tree! The electric fireplaces in the living room and bedroom provide great ambiance and heat when needed. The kitchen has modern appliances and everything you would need to cook. The yard is enclosed which was great to let our dog run around. She has a brand new Traeger grill that we got to christen during our stay. The hot tub is obviously a great bonus and a huge selling point for most people I'm sure. There was a little market, a liquor store, and a few restaurants within walking distance for takeout. We also were able to walk one block to the nearby park and golf course to do all kinds of snow related activities, including snowshoeing and cross country skiing. The only disappointing thing about our trip was that the storm that brought in all the lovely snow we enjoyed during our trip, also prevented us from making it to Patty's place on the first night, so our stay was shortened by a day. We only wish we could have stayed longer.
