Wonderful home and close to all the activities! Jim and Jill were fantastic hosts, very responsive. We enjoyed the well supplied kitchen, outdoor spaces including fire pit, and bike storage downstairs. Easy to walk to bike rentals, parks, restaurants in town. Very comfortable home for our large group.

Lanesboro VRBO

We love our many vacations to Lanesboro and have stayed at several VRBOs, however, this place was amazing! Perfect place for a large family or 3 or 4 couples to enjoy. The kitchen is fully stocked with high end appliances. We loved the outdoor spaces as well for a fire or dining. Location to the Main Street is a bonus. I highly recommend this home and look forward to coming back!

Lovely spring weekend

The Lanesboro House was exceptionally clean and comfortable for our family. The kitchen had all of the brand new utensils we needed to cook and grill. We enjoyed the patio and also the large dining room table for board games. The house was steps from the Root River Trail where we recorded numerous species for the worldwide bird count. Many birds were also seen in the yard due to the stocked bird feeders. The owners even had additional supplies for restocking. Just down the street, we attended a superb performance at the Commonweal Theatre. What a wonderful weekend in Lanesboro.

Amazing Property!

We simply cannot say enough about this property! The owners are obviously interested in the comfort and enjoyment of their guests. The amenities are plentiful - so many things we brought were already provided. The kitchen is so well stocked with quality equipment, dishware, etc. that we all wanted to stay! They even provided bird seed and suet if we wanted so we could enjoy the birds as we enjoyed the outdoor environment. The town of Lanesboro was fun and so nice to be able to park our cars and walk every where we wanted to go. Our group always go to a different place every year but this place truly temps us to repeat! Thank you so much Jill & Jim for an amazing location!

Family gathering

Great home with perfect group gathering and private spaces. It is well conceived. The one down side is that my wife is encouraging some remodeling to mimic the lodging.

Awesome house!

The house was awesome and very well stocked with everything we needed (kitchen supplies, bath towels, etc.). Firepit and outdoor dining area very nice as well. Hosts super easy to work with, prompt responses. House was clean and beds very comfortable. 4th bedroom isn't ideal for adults as the beds are shorter but a couple in our group are short so it worked. Will definitely stay here again if we're in the area!!

Lanesboro House is perfect!!!

We visited Lanesboro for biking on the Root River State Trail, and kayaking. Our sty at Lanesboro House (there were 4 of us) could not have been better!! It was immaculately clean, very well provisioned, especially the gorgeous, gourmet kitchen!!! The setting is very quaint with a fire ring in the back for those chilly nights, a lovely dining area, and lower level indoor parking for our e-bikes!!! It was all perfect, and we’ll be back!!!

Lovely renovated home

Our group of six adults thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Jill and Jim's home. They thought of everything you would possibly need, especially in the large kitchen. The house was immaculate and the beds were comfortable. We loved being so close to downtown and the trails. The lounging spaces inside and out are very comfortable. It is fun to see Lanesboro continue to thrive. Kayaking down the Root was a bit challenging at times with the water exposing so many boulders, but tons of fun. Do not miss the International Owl Center in Houston and the Lanesboro Museum!

Home away from home

This property is beautiful. Jill was extremely quick to answer any questions! You absolutely do not need to bring anything along except groceries, the kitchen is fully stocked and then some. The only thing to note would be that the king bedroom does not have a door, and the bedroom with the twin beds is through the king room. Perfect for our family because my kids were able to stay in that room while my husband and I were right there. If it wasn't family that could be weird. We would absolutely stay again!

Luxurious Accommodations, Great Location with lots of Bonus Amenities

This Lanesboro rental was very homie and luxurious with well thought out amenities. And, Well appointed kitchen. We grilled out a lot and enjoyed all the awesome outdoor spaces (Fire pit, Balconies, BBQ area, Birdwatching). The home/property has some many nice spaces to unplug. Bedrooms were comfortable and very private with their own spaces to spread out. Bathrooms were perfectly located in the house up and down for all us to share. The walk-in basement was perfect for bike storage and 100’ from the bike paths. Our entire group enjoyed our 7 night stay and rate it 5 stars. We were so impressed with the details and hosts. I highly recommend staying at this great house for the location, amenities and hosts.

Die Räume waren sehr klein und dunkel. Die Klimaanlagen funktionierten nicht sofort nach Einschalten und hatten ein sehr seltsames Verhalten. Wenn alle Funktions-LEDs aus waren, war die Anlage an. In der Küche hat alles soweit gepasst. Der Pool war knapp 300 m weiter weg in der Anlage gegenüber. Dort wurden wir ziemlich angegangen, weil wir keine Badekappe hatten. Das stand auch nirgends. Deswegen haben wir auf einen 2. Durchgang verzichtet. Das Wasser im 2. Pool war recht dreckig. Der große Pool war sauber. Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Nervig war, dass esd nur ein Schlüssel gab und man aber ohne Schlüssel nicht aus der Anlage kam. Die nahe Straße hat man gut hören können. Die angrenzende Gaststätte war bis in die Nacht rein auch recht laut. Wir waren nur 2 Nächte. Die Lage zum Gardasee ist ganz gut aber alles in allem würden wir ungern 1 ganze Woche in der kleinen Wohnung verbringen wollen. Es hat soweit gepasst, 3.5 Sterne von uns.
