My family and I loved staying at this location. We flew in from LA and brought our 15 month old. It was the PERFECT spot for a family, equip with toys, a high chair, and many other baby/kids items that made our life so much easier. The house was also such a gorgeous location that was walkable to the lake and all kinds of restaurants. We will definitely be staying here again when we come back to Minneapolis.

The unit was clean, comfortable, and safe. The linens were very nice and our bed was comfortable. Great water pressure for a shower. We did not cook, but I can see that someone could easily prepare a meal if they wanted.Since our trip was to visit a family member in the hospital, this location was perfect for us, as it only took 20-30 minutes to get to U of M Medical Center everyday. That was really great.

My two female cousins and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We loved each having our own bedroom, and the updates and decor were inviting and cozy. We are not seasoned metro drivers, but the location was central to many of the surrounding attractions. The home was stocked with anything and everything you could possibly need! Will stay longer than 2 nights next time!

Clean and convenient

Great stay at this property. It was clean and we had everything we needed including items for our infant. The only thing to be aware of when booking is that there is residents or guests upstairs and the floors are quite thin.

Great Place in a Great Location!

My family enjoyed our stay during spring break. The house was in a great location, in a very cute neighborhood. If the weather was nicer, we would've loved to walk over to a coffee shop or to a restaurant. The home was clean and had all of the comforts of home. Hosts were very friendly and communicative. Would definitely stay again!

Great place for family vacation!

We absolutely loved staying here – it was perfect for our family of four. Everything was beautifully designed and it had everything we needed, from the basics to great details (like hampers, fans, luggage racks, and kids dishes). Our kids loved the selection of books and toys. We hope to stay here again!

Lovely Lake Harriet home

Really nice home very close to Lake Harriet! Amazing backyard, lovingly cared-for interior, plenty of useful stuff for kids like toys, high chair, booster, pack and play, etc. You couldn't pick a better area in SW Minneapolis. Try Broders, Sebastian Joe's, and Le Burger while you're here, and definitely enjoy the walk to the lake!

About the host

Hosted by Karen Thill

Host profile image

We are Karen and Rebecca- we live in the neighborhood and are available to make sure your stay is a success! Although new at this venture, we love to travel and have often stayed in various vacation rentals.

Our hobbies include travel, gardening, playing with our dogs and visiting some of Minneapolis' treasures (Mpls Institute of Art, Walker Art Center, Theodore Wirth Park, etc.)

Why they chose this property

The location is our greatest feature, we know because we live just one block away! The neighborhood is very family-friendly, walkable and offers a mix of architectural styles, including smaller homes and large mansions near Lake Harriet, just 2.5 blocks away. Minnehaha Creek is winding through the area about 3-4 blocks south, and has foot paths if you want to enjoy some quiet nature nearby. Downtown Linden Hills is a 20 minute walk northwest, and offers a library, more trendy restaurants, shops and a bakery. The nearest grocery store is Lunds & Byerlys and is about a 20 minute walk/5 minute drive straight west at the vibrant 50th and France area of Edina. You can also find many great shops and restaurants there. We love living here and know you will enjoy your stay.
