The location was great - really close to the entrance to nearby state park, riverboat ride, and food options. Andy was super about our request to add more A/C units to the upstairs during an extremely hot summer weekend.

Lovely house

We were a group of 6 ladies. The house is just beautiful and very spacious. All bedrooms were large especially the master bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen was very large and had everything we needed. We spent most of the time at the large table in the kitchen playing games as unfortunately the weather was rainy. The front porch was nice and covered and kept us dry despite the rain. It was a half mile walk to Taylor’s Falls. This house was perfect for a group of our size.

This is a great location to access all the fun to be had in Taylor's Falls, St. Croix Falls and the surrounding area. We visited fawndarosa, kayaked on the St. Croix, hiked at interstate park, listened to great music at wild mountain winery, ate at the drive in , and had an all around great time. The house is very clean and you can walk to many places.

Home is beautiful, spacious, comfortable and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the peacefulness of the backyard. It was a quick walk into town to explore shops and grab a bite to eat. A perfect weekend! We would stay again and highly recommend to others.

Nice place

My husband and adult kids stayed here for a short get away. Neat old house that has everything we need. The owner checked with us via email to see if all was going well. The jacuzzi tub was nice after a kayak trip in the park. 50's themed diner and minature golf across the street were fun.

Within a short drive to restaurants, shopping, convenience and big box stores, hiking trails and a winery. Loved having a bonfire one of the nights. Loved using the jacuzzi tub.

Excellent location-Walking distance to dining and shopping

The kitchen was well stocked and had plenty of seating. The main floor also had plenty of room and a very comfortable living room sectional. All of the bedrooms are on the second floor along with two full bathrooms. There are a lot of stairs so not good for anyone with knee problems. The master bedroom and bathroom are huge! The other two bedrooms and full bath are also plenty roomy. The half bath on the main floor was also very nice and convenient. There was plenty of off-street parking. We had three vehicles and there was still space. The home was within walking distance for eating, bars and shopping. Very good location! Our biggest problems were figuring out all of the remote controls to run the living room TV and the thermostat.

Exceeded Expectations

As lovely as this house looks in the photos, it's even better in person! We so enjoyed staying here. The owners are extremely hospitable and responsive. The furnishings are very comfortable. We appreciated the quality of the appliances, dishware, glasses, towels and sheets. (No thrift store finds here!) Plenty of space to gather, play games, and relax. We didn't realize just how close we'd be to the fun downtown area and to Interstate State Park, the location could not have been better! We took a boat ride on the St. Croix, took a train ride from Osceola, and took hikes in Interstate Park to see the amazing potholes. A very joyous family vacation with our college aged sons.
