Tamara and her family were a treat to host. Great communication, very friendly and left our home in impeccable shape. We would welcome them back anytime.
Such a cute house. Loved the screen porch that allowed us to sit outside despite the rain. The owner was very responsive and easy to deal with.Great place to stay in Mpls

We downsized to a tiny condo in Linden Hills and when we have visitors I get a VRBO for all of us to stay in. Boxwood Cottage is the best one we’ve ever had. It is beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. The locks worked smoothly and the kitchen had plenty of glassware and dishes. We’ll be booking this property again.
