Overall, my husband and I were very pleased with our stay at this house. Rusty and Donna were very efficient communicating with us almost on a daily basis. We happened to arrive in Champlin during the curfew hours, and the hosts were on the phone with us until quite late at night explaining the directions and remaining very supportive. Whatever questions we had, they were replied within minutes. The neighborhood is extremely quiet, literally you don't hear a sound from the street, and the access to downtown Anoka with its cute boutiques and cafes is very easy. On a warm day we spent nice time out on their big wooden deck, and it was very relaxing. The house has plenty of outlets for phone and computer charges; their washer works well and makes it convenient if you travel for an extended period of time. The kitchen is full of different pots and supplies needed for cooking which makes you feel at home away from home. There are several TVs in the house, so you can watch different movies in different rooms if you arrive as a family. The mattress in the main bedroom is very comfortable which adds to a good night rest.
On the down side, the dryer never shut down automatically, so, we needed to watch for the clothes to be dry and stop the dryer. Also, the tub area needs to be remodelled as it seems quite old.
On the whole, the house has its own charm, it is inviting and provides a nice cosy atmosphere which we truly appreciated. Thank you to Rusty and Donna!
