Beautiful house with comfortable beds, plenty of room, a well-stocked kitchen, and a lovely neighborhood. While the trains were a bit noisy (and frequent), it was perfect for attending out son's wedding nearby at the Como Park Zoo.

Beautiful and comfy home that accommodated four adults and an infant. Dao was an amazing host who was very accessible and communicated with me very well, answered all my questions and helped with pack and play and high chair for the baby. The house was located a short walk from Lake Como. I enjoyed a lovely morning walk. Great location. We will definitely stay here again if we are ever back in the area!

Great House

We booked this house as a nice quiet place for ourselves and our wedding party to stay and get ready for our wedding and it was perfect for that, very pretty quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors and lots of indoor and outdoor space. There are train tracks a few houses down which you can hear in the house but this didn’t bother us much and the host was incredibly kind and accommodating

We stayed over Thanksgiving and even walked around Lake a couple times. Appreciated having attached garage. We will certainly return to this home which was perfect to visit our adult children living in the Twin Cities. Dao is a wonderful person to work with.

Truly loved staying here! It was so central to everywhere we wanted to be in Saint Paul and surrounding areas. The house has been beautifully updated and was a perfect fit for our family of six! The backyard was absolutely dreamy and so spacious. We spent a lot of time outside. The train is very close but honestly did not bother us nor did it wake us or the kids in the night. We came for the Minnesota state fair and were able to get there easily from the property! We will definitely be back! 10/10!

Very cute, walking distance to Como Lake and fishing dock. Very responsive owner. Unfortunately, we found the property to be dirty - particularly the bathrooms and the refrigerator/kitchen. Linens were clean. Train runs very close to this house and was loud enough to wake lighter sleepers. Owner said they will make sure house is cleaned better. However, we already spent a sizable amount of money on renting the property and that didn't really help us.
