This property was perfect for us. The house is in a beautiful neighborhood and was just about a half hour drive from every thing we wanted to see and do. Perfectly central just about. The owner was very nice and helpful. The house was quiet, clean and adorable.

Bridget has provided a very lovely property to stay in the twin cities area. Very conveniently located in the Lake Harriett area with great walking options. We leveraged the outside seating area during our full 2 week stay, as well as, a great sunroom area off the kitchen. The place has tons of mid-century charm. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked with glassware, appliances, and utensils (and sharp knives!!! we always appreciate some sharp knives). We also enjoyed the traditional charcoal grill outside for several steak and pork chop nights. Net, we highly recommend this as a great place for a couple or family to stay. We've already rebooked for another 10 night stay!

Felt like home.

We had a wonderful visit In Minneapolis and this home made it possible. The house was clean, comfortable, and centrally located to Downtown and the South and West suburbs. I can't imagine having a better base of operations during our stay.
