An urban cottage. It's not ultra-modern, it's grandma's place updated. Clean and correct. Hulu and Amazon Prime on the digital TVs in the bedrooms. USB charging stations in both bedrooms. Fireplace in the living room, but no TV there, it's a living room :-)
Well-equipped efficiency kitchen (small) coffee maker, new pans, gas range, dishes, silverware (not sterling) newer washer and dryer in the basement. the bedroom upstairs has dual remote controls for the lights.

The space
2 car off-street parking, but who needs a car here? I guess if local friends want to visit.

Just a 2.9-mile walk from the US Bank stadium and SuperBowl if you take the scenic route past the Walker Art Center and the sculpture garden. 0.9-mile walk to Utepils Brewing Company, Walk to Sparks Restaurant in 0.2 miles. When you are ready for a faster-paced scene it's only a 2.9-mile ride to the "WestEnd" area or 2.7 miles to the Smack Shack and all the great watering holes in the North Loop district.

We work downtown and live close by. Have an urgent need, we can be there in 15 minutes. Needs more TP or Peat's Coffee and we can drop it by the next AM.

a little disappointed...

The property was ok for the most part. We were there for an agility trial with our dogs, so we did not spend a lot of time in the unit. Check in - I received an email with the "keys to our trip", but when we tried to access check in details, there was nothing. So, we were standing there with no way to access the unit. I had to reach out to the owner and we did finally get the code to the lockbox and front door, but it took about 45 min. Check out - There were no check out details, so we just put out the garbage, we left the recycling in the house because there weren't any bags and we were not sure if we should just pile it in the bin outside. The pictures don't show the stairs to get to the upstairs bedroom, but they are VERY, VERY steep and coming down was a bit concerning as the stairs were narrow. Also, it was quite warm out when we were there (sept 12 - 16, 2024) and the Air Conditioning was working but it did not seem to be reach the upstairs bedroom, so it was very stuffy and quite warm. My friend and I ultimately decided to share the downstairs bed which was not ideal, but we managed. The bathroom was clean as was the bedroom, but there was no dish soap to clean any of our dishes, and the stove looked like it needed a good cleaning. There was a fantastic park across the street where we spent lots of time with our dogs. It is a lovely neighborhood and we were a short car ride from restaurants, Costco etc.

Time away from home

Very quiet and dog friendly neighborhood! Very impressed with the location, trails around the ballpark to walk my dog were very convenient. This cottage is a cute little place to stay and was exactly as expected based on the listing and reviews. I would definitely stay here again if returning to the area!

Concert at the Target center

We took our son and his friend to a concert at the Target center along with some sightseeing. We saw Paisley Park and the Mall of America. It was a great getaway and a perfect location.

The Perfect Father’s Day

Even in the pouring rain this property was so perfect and exactly what our family needed for the holiday weekend. We landed earlier than expected and were able yo check in right away. Host had everything setup and the house was all the charm of an old cottage that we were looking for. In set shelving and old fireplace and all the hard wood floors! Plus the upstairs loft was perfect for the kids to have their own little suite. We absolutely fell in love with the old house and we’re so thrilled to stay in this wonderful little time capsule. The Bryn Mawr neighborhood tho is the real treat. This little house is nestled in a magical little place just 10 mins from all the downtown activities but in a world all its own. The cottage is just a ten minute walk to the Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden and Bird Sanctuary that we didn’t unfortunately didn’t get to experience due to weather but is on our list for our next trip. If you are considering going to Minneapolis we would 10/10 recommend this place if you are looking for an easy, affordable, one of a kind stay

Good place to stay for a Vikings game

Nice cottage with a quaint personality. Not fancy, but updated with internet. Very conveniently located to anything in the downtown area. Could use a TV in the living room so a group can watch a movie together.

Lovely cottage, as advertised

Pretty easy. Prior reviews have pointed out that an info sheet would be helpful and I echo that but nothing that we couldn't eventually figure out and deal with/purchase. But I would rent it again. Convenient location and sweet neighborhood and charmingly eccentric cottage.

Girl Get-Away Review

Location was GREAT - on-line pictures were accurate. Nice park to walk in - nice neighborhood. Recommend a cheat-sheet to run t.v. or restaurant/grocery store locations. Would also recommend the toilet paper be on the roll, garbage bags in trash cans, batteries in smoke alarm, windows properly locked or cleaned up a bit - Communication with owner was GREAT - responded quickly - thank you

Great place for a weekend getaway

The hosts were very easy to communicate with leading up to our trip to Minneapolis, and we had no issues getting into the house or taking advantage of any of its features. Loved the functioning fireplace and quaint feel of the home. A dog-friendly home was much appreciated to bring the whole family along!

A Little Disappointed

Pros: The cottage was as described. It was cozy and clean. The owner responded with instructions and restaurant/grocery information the day before we arrived. Cons: I was surprised that I did not get a response to questions the day we checked in, nor did we hear anything at all from the owner while we were there. When I’ve stayed at other properties, I’ve always been asked if check-in went alright, whether we needed anything, etc. I couldn’t find a contact phone number, though the message with instructions did say I could call or text if I needed anything. I had messaged the owner that, though we’d planned on bringing the dog, we’d decided not to and asked whether we might get a refund of the pet fee. This is not a huge deal, as we had agreed to the fee when we booked, but a response would have been appreciated. A large amount of snow fell the evening we arrived. We were happy to arrive safely and that there was a driveway for parking. Unfortunately, the driveway and walk were not cleared before or at any time during our stay (we were unable to take the trash out, as the garbage cans were in the driveway, already full and covered with snow). We shoveled the walk ourselves a couple of times and fortunately had a 4WD vehicle; without that, I’m quite sure we would have gotten stuck in the snow. A shovel was at the front door, so maybe I misunderstood and we were expected to take care of snow removal? So, to sum up, the cottage was as described and clean, but better communication would have been welcome.

Quite and not far from US Bank Stadium

My mom and I came to Minneapolis to see The Rolling Stones and visit Paisley Park. We needed a dog friendly property and this home was perfect for us. Quite, clean neighborhood but close to everything we needed. Had one small problem but Juliette answered us immediately and the problem was solved. Great communication throughout.

Worked For Us

We came in town for a soccer tournament up north in Blaine. While this was a bit out of the way, the beds were comfortable and the Internet worked. I would have loved a fewer cobwebs in the cottage but I get it, it’s old. A plug for the bathtub would have helped my aching soccer player but we improvised 😀. Perhaps a place to sit outside for a spell would be lovely as Bryn Mawr is a cute neighborhood and there is some great architecture to see?

My parents, husband, daughter and I stayed here 2 nights while attending a family wedding in town. The location was ideal for our needs. The host was very helpful when we had questions about parking an additional car. The house was close to the main freeway but was in a quiet neighborhood. It was simple and cozy.

This property is location location location with loads of historic charm.

We walked for hours everyday and each day was different. From downtown and the Mississippi river to various lake and neighborhood walks. Super easy access on and off the freeway. The home has the warm charm of an older home. We will be back.
