The host is phenomenal. We had a minor issue come up at 6pm on a Saturday night. Alex was at the house within an hour and totally fixed the problem. We are grateful for a well maintained property with very responsive hosts. I am picky about cleanliness and the home was immaculate to stay in especially when recovering g from surgery. We ll be back when we need to visit mayo. Very quiet and peaceful setting . Thanks Alex and Emily.

We have stayed at a lot of vrbo’s, this was by far the cleanest we’ve stayed in. The kitchen was stocked nicely with utensils, pots/pans, etc. plenty of space to visit with our adult children.

Amazing place to Stay with Family

Everything was perfect about our stay. Great communication before, during and after our stay. The house itself was perfect for a family of 4. The location was great. We all loved playing in the school field next door. The kids loved catching fire flies in the evenings. Thanks for everything!

Great stay

We had a great stay, we were in town for medical appointments at Mayo Clinic and everything was a short drive away. The hosts were very quick to respond to any of our questions. Recovering from surgery was easy to do in this home, nice neighborhood to walk, quiet at night, and plenty of room for everyone.

We have stayed at this location twice while our son has appointments at Mayo. The house is cute, comfortable, and spacious. Alex is a kind and responsive host. This home will be our first choice in the future when we return for more appointments.

Perfect house for a weekend in Rochester

We booked this house while in Rochester for a volleyball tournament. The property was perfect for our group of two adults and three teenagers with an area downstairs for the teenagers to hang out. It’s a beautiful property that appears to be recently renovated. It was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The owners were prompt in responding to questions and were very accommodating. We would definitely rent this property again!

Great place!

From start to finish everything was great! Door code instead of keys made it easy for check in/out. Owner very attentive and helpful, even had the driveway and walkways quickly cleared after a heavy snow. Garage with extra tall door and automatic opener was perfect to keep our Suburban out of the weather! House is adorable. Nicely updated, and everything worked as it should :) Lower level family room and 3rd bedroom where our teenage son slept was a little cooler temp than the rest of the house, but he loved it that way! Had a ton of fun down there with the Xbox. Located on a quiet dead-end street so not a lot of traffic at all. Easy, short drive to Mayo. Would definitely stay here again.
