Mac-Grove Neighborhood. This is one of our favorite neighborhoods in St. Paul. Old Charm, beautiful houses, relatively quiet streets. Great parks in walking distance. A grocery store just a few houses down. A tap room a few houses down the other way. A gas station at the end of the block. Close to Macalester College, St. Thomas University and St. Catherine's University, all beautiful campuses in the St. Paul area. Not far from Grand Avenue that has GREAT shopping, food and ice cream. Summit Avenue is also nearby which boasts 373 of the original St. Paul mansions built in the 1800's. It's worth a stroll on a nice afternoon to check out these beautiful pieces of architecture!

We were looking for a home that could comfortably accommodate six of us for a weekend getaway, and this one was perfect. With eight beds and four bathrooms, there was plenty of space for everyone to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfortable, and there were more than enough towels. The main gathering area was ideal for our retreat. Communication with the owner was excellent, and both check-in and check-out were seamless. We would gladly stay here again.
Wonderful property, very spacious, well stocked with essentials beyond starter kit they talk about. Host was very easy to work with and let us be once we were settled.
This was an awesome VRBO. Fabulous location, amenities, and as described. The home is deceptively huge, with a great layout. And the Yay team is awesome as well. I hope to stay at their property again in the near future.

We’re so glad you enjoyed your time at Groveland Inn! We’d be happy to welcome you back anytime.
Our family had a great experience here. It was spacious, close to, or in reasonable driving distance to our venues. We will definitely stay here again when we have another visit to the Twin Cities!
Great space with plenty of room for us all. Tanya was super accommodating and quick to respond to everything. Would definitely stay again if back in the area.

Thank you for choosing Groveland Inn for your stay! We would welcome you back anytime you're in town.
Funky layout - a super cool house in a great neighborhood. A little store is just a 2 min walk away as well as a pub with great food. The house was perfect for our group with multiple seating areas for hanging out and a big table for everyone to sit at together. The basement is a little basement-y (dehumidifiers running) but provided just enough space. The beds are pretty firm but comfortable. The host was very quick to respond about an outlet that wasn't working. Overall, I'd recommend this place if you are staying in the Twin Cities area!

We had a big group and this property fit us perfectly! The owners were friendly and helpful, and the space was beautiful and had all the amenities we could ever need.
This house was perfect for our group of friends! I would recommend it to anyone looking for a place for a large group. Every time I messaged the host I received a response back within a few minutes which made planning and our stay a breeze.

We had a great stay at this house! Our group consisted of 8 adults, and the house provided plenty of room for us. The house was just as advertised, well stocked with anything we needed, and Tanya was great at communicating throughout the entire process.

This was a great property and a great host! Tanya was very helpful with local recommendations and she answered all of our questions in a timely manner. We’ve made this trip the past 11 years and this was one of the best rentals we have had thus far! We would love to stay there again next year if possible!
This was the perfect property for a few families to meet up and stay together! We fit plenty of cousins/aunts/uncles in the home, and found everything we needed to make meals and spend time visiting together. We appreciated having a full bathroom for each family. The host was very responsive and helpful with suggestions. We were pleased with our stay!

Tanya is a great host! We had a great time in this perfect St Paul house. We were a group of 13 and had plenty of room for relaxing, spreading out, cooking meals and eating. All the rooms were so comfortable and tastefully decorated. Definitely a great find! Thank you Tanya!!!

Our group of 14 stayed here for 3 nights. The property fit everyone comfortably. The 2 dining rooms, large living room, and 2 refrigerators on the main level accommodated our group as we prepared for a wedding and watched the NBA finals on the large TV.
Sleeping spaces & bathrooms were great for our group of 15 adults and one preschooler. Kitchen was small (narrow), but other spaces made up for it. We will definitely keep this property on our list!

About the host
Hosted by Tanya R
I am a local Minnesotan that LOVES hosting guests. I love to travel and we try our best to accommodate guests the way we like to be accommodated! We have spent a ton of time here in the Twin Cities so enjoy giving feedback on where to go to eat, get coffee, eat ice cream, anything.
Why they chose this property
This neighborhood is amazing. Friendly people. Cute bars, restaurants and shops.
What makes this property unique
I love music so we tried something different at this house and each room has a song and was designed around a piece of the lyric. Every bedroom has a lyric with a QR code to the song! We also LOVE dancing in the kitchen so there is an entire wall of options for the littles, the boomers, the gen x and everything in between.
Great game room in the basement for the kids or the adults. Wii Console included and easy to hook up a gaming console you may have brought as well.
Every room bedroom has a memory foam mattress, blackout curtains and TV.
Two Living rooms and dining rooms makes for lots of room to congregate. And an extra fridge, because when I travel with 12 people, I ALWAYS NEED MORE SPACE in the fridge!
