About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The dollar house

This is a fully renovated single family home which is setup for you to have a very nice place to stay while in the area. The dollar house was a tired little place that hadn’t been lived in for over a decade! It’s fully renovated into something sort of special if you ask me. A great place to stay and really well equipped. It's private, on a safe street, close to parks and both lakes. If Albert Lea has nicer short term accommodations, we need to see it to believe it (Unless it's my two bedroom down the street, "Albert Lea revival". This unit is an exceptional value!

If your car runs on coal, there's an EV charger in the driveway! Or plug in your RV/ camper, etc.
