Reviews
Excellent!
4.6/5 -
(20 traveler reviews)
Nice little apartment with everything we needed. Owners very accommodating. Affordable.
Old school house with old building smell. Worse in the hall, maybe the carpet. Had everything we needed otherwise. Good off street parking . Loved the Adirondack chairs. Wished we had time to use the grilling area but admired it. Location is great. Enjoyed shopping and biking in Stillwater and North to Osceola for kayaking. Owners are so right about Square Lake. Were able to call ourselves triatheletes after swimming these beautiful clear waters. The village of Marine on St. Croix is a little gem and worth time spent there also. Had a great time at the school.
Much better than a hotel!!
Enjoyed our home away from home! Nice quiet little town but Stillwater's just 15 minutes away. We really enjoyed the Brookside Grill which is right in town. The Marine on St. Croix Retreat was a great place to stay at a reasonable price.
Great Place, Great People!
We stayed for almost a month at the property and had a perfect time. The owners are wonderful people who are very accommodating and helpful.
Not what we expected
We loved the town but not our little apartment style place.
Great place!
So clean, comfortable and cozy. Exceeded my expectations!
More spacious than it looks on the photos
We were pleasantly surprised to find that the little apartment was more spacious than it looked in the photos. With high ceilings and plenty of room to move about the living room beckoned every time we opened the front door and we made generous use of it. The bathroom counter had enough space for two people to comfortable park their travel necessities and the spacious bedroom contained a comfortable bed.
And then there is the location. Marine on St Croix is a walkable little town with good food, a local market, a post office and a bank... all with easy walking distance. Next time i visit the Minneapolis St Paul area I will definately book here.
