The host is very responsive. I had not received the check in instructions the day before but I messaged the host and I was promptly provided the information. An hour before check in I received a message from the host that the maid had left the towels in the washer and that I could move them to the dryer or leave them in the washer until the end of my stay. When we arrived there were no towels in the closet so I had to move the towel to the dryer and complete the laundry upon arrival. The grass in the backyard was a tab bit overgrown. Two days into our stay the yard men showed up to mow without notice. All in all the house was clean and in a good location.

Great stay!

Kids LOVED the games downstairs! The house was clean, spacious and offered a bunch of space to play. Two beds are memory foam which I don’t care for, but others during the stay loved. Sheets were super soft and bedding was great. Thanks!!

What a beautiful home! The hosts were wonderful and the house was beautiful. The downstairs game room was used for our nightly game nights and was fantastic. We also loved sitting outside around the fire pit in the lovely back yard.

River Falls, university visit

Property was perfect for visiting our daughter who attends UW River Falls. Cute, cozy and simply decorated. Had all the essentials we needed. Dog friendly for small dogs. We opted not to bring our dog this time. We would definitely stay there again and bring our dog next time. The rental had very comfortable beds and a nice lower level rec room. We enjoyed are stay at this lovely place.
