We were so pleased with our stay. The home and location were even better than we could have expected. The house is beautifully decorated and well equipped with tons of sleeping space, high quality towels and linens, everything we needed in the kitchen (inc. the Keurig!), a nice long dining space for meals, and everything needed for cleaning and keeping up with laundry during a longer stay. We especially appreciated the back-porch area and green back yard with fire pit. Amanda does not skimp, and everything we needed was already in the cupboard (e.g. spices, salt, oil, coffee) or in the yard (e.g. comfy outdoor seating, firewood). Not knowing the area, we were so pleasantly surprised to figure out that there were tons of awesome playgrounds, outdoor activities, and trails within 10 minutes. Despite being outside of a town, we even had pizza delivered. Minneapolis-St. Paul is an easy 20-35 drive, depending on your destination. On top of all of this, Amanda is an absolutely lovely person and serious about hospitality. She and her family were kind and accommodating, and getting to meet her and see her beautiful store (next door) was a real pleasure. Our kids loved staying here, and we would definitely stay here again on a future trip through the Twin Cities.
