About this property

☆Dee Dee's Den: A Dharma Dwellings Parent Company☆

Centrally located near Silver Lake, less than 10 minutes to Mayo Clinic, this home is the largest entry in our Dharma Dwellings homes! Named after Grandma Dee Dee, this is where she stays when she visits the grandkids, but she isn't always in town, and wanted to offer the space to others who could use it while she isn't here! We have been blessed to host hundreds of guests, and work hard to ensure you have an relaxing and restorative experience with us at Dharma Dwellings!

About the Space:
➤Large open concept kitchen with Granite countertops, perfect for preparing a meal and sitting down for a family dinner. All the pots, pans, cooking oils, and spices you may need. Any amenities you could need including Coffee and tea. Please let us know if you find anything missing.

➤This home has the same initial layout as Oakley's Oasis and Poppy's Paradise next door, but has a bump out kitchen and large upstairs/basement bedrooms.

➤Five Spacious bedrooms (two queen bedrooms on the main, two upstairs (a king and a queen,) and one king downstairs), the size of the bedrooms are unique to most of the homes in town.

➤Large 65inch Roku 4k tv (with associated Netflix/ Amazon Prime account), Xbox 360, and an over the air antenna with 25 local HD channels provided.

➤This home has a unique backyard of rare plants sure to be a relaxing spot on a summer day! Enjoy lounging on the patio set and watching the many native species of birds and other wildlife that make this area their home. Eat a meal prepared on the Electric Grill.

➤Full service snow removal/ice melt to ensure you are able to get to your appointments.

➤ Located next door to both Oakley's Oasis and Poppy's Paradise. These three homes all in the same location provides us unparalleled ability to provide flexibility for your stay, should you need to extend based on Mayo testing or complications

This home was the perfect choice for our first visit to Mayo. We had an active toddler who was able to run around on one floor while others could get rest out of earshot. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay.

Great place for a staff retreat!

We booked this place for a 3-day staff retreat and it worked perfectly. Everyone had their own room, and there’s was plenty of space to both work and relax in the home. Great location and the hosts were excellent to work with.

Dee Dee's Den was very comfortable for our family of six adults and one 2 yr old child. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes and an assortment of common pantry items. The house was spacious and comfortable. Checking in was flawless. Host Alex was very easy to work with. The house is located in a quiet, safe residential neighborhood.
