My senior Yorkiepoo, Bennie, and I found the space and location to be perfect for a week long getaway. Minnehaha Falls is very dog friendly and an easy walk from the house. I ate twice a the Asian Duck Cafe. Very good food at reasonable prices. I spent a lot of time writing in the house. Lots of windows, natural light was fabulous, AND the blackout shades allowed me to have a couple of peaceful naps.

Great to have parking, easy access, and the fenced-in yard is a huge plus for those traveling with dogs. If you aren't a dog person, you wouldn't know that pets have stayed there because it's very clean. Would definitely stay here again.

I highly recommend that you take advantage of the well marked, spacious, night lighted alley parking spot for this rental property. Pass through the gate into the fenced backyard, and you are "home", walk in the back door, go up a few steps to your door, enter the hallway and you are "Home". Host Andrew is very prompt in response to messages. Having owned an AAA Multiple Diamond destination resort, which catered to travelers from around the globe, I understand how important it is to anticipate the needs of a broad range of expectations, Andrew is very good at covering this aspect of travel. The information provided is accurate, the facility is very clean, and well furnished, such that it is easy to feel comfortably "home". Also, it really is just a short walk to enjoy the Falls!

This small home is centrally located in south Minneapolis and is just minutes from Hwy 62, 494, and 94, making getting around the cities quick and easy.A grocery and liquor store are both in walking distance, along with a couple of restaurants (recommend Asian Duck Cafe), which is great. Additional grocers and retail is a quick drive across Ford bridge.The space is comfortable for two, and the kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, etc. Laundry is available downstairs, which we appreciated.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew Fischer

Host profile image

I am a local realtor. I grew up in the Twin Cities and am ready to help with dinner/activity recommendations and any other general inquiries.

What makes this property unique

Fun activities include hiking/running trails at Minnehaha Park, a well-known seafood eatery and bar called Sea Salt, Long Fellow Gardens and an active dog park. The rental is two blocks from Metro Transit with quick access to MSP Airport, downtown, US Bank Stadium, Target Field and more. Ten minute Uber/Lyft from airport. Walking distance from a liquor store, gas station, Walgreens, brewery and three-minute drive to Highland Village Center with many quaint bars and restaurants. Lakes Nokomis and Hiawatha are nearby where you can enjoy the beach, paths around the lakes and rent canoes/kayaks/stand up paddle boards at Wheel Fun Rentals.

At the end of the street is the bus stop and two blocks away is the Metro Transit light rail, so you could get along without a car. If you have a car, there's a private parking spot in the back.
