Cool, Quiet, and Comfortable Cottage Near Mac

Modern Cozy Getaways makes old homes have cool vibes!
Remodeled and tastefully designed St. Paul cottage that is casually comfortable and modern. We’ve put our heart into restoring this side by side duplex that contains many of the original architectural features from the 1930’s. Private and in a great neighborhood, you’ll have one of the units all to yourself. You won’t lack for comfort, quiet, and calm in our cottage.

The cottage is a fully renovated 1200 sq. ft. space with 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath. The living area comes with a comfortable couch and lounge area perfect for relaxing, watching the large screen Smart TV, taking advantage of our super fast WiFi, or reading under the light of a modern Italian lamp.

The kitchen is sleek and modern with black cabinetry, brass fixtures and stainless steel appliances. It is loaded with everything you need. Love coffee? We do! We provide a couple different ways to make coffee. We have a drip machine or you can use the large stainless steel french press. At our coffee station you'll find sugar (and non-sugar sweeteners), and creamers. We also provide a grinder for whole bean do it yourselfers. Enjoy a variety of different teas as well because we love tea too.

The dining room features an antique gothic pendant light, mid-century modern table, and plush velvet seating.

The bedrooms are comfortable and quiet with new award-winning mattresses. The main floor bedroom has a mid century vibe with a queen bed and the highly reviewed Helix Dusk mattress (voted one of the most popular mattresses for comfort and support). Up a few small stairs is another bedroom, secluded and very quiet with a king bed featuring the Bear mattress, known for modern cooling technology to provide great sleep.

There is ample on street parking in front of the cottage. The neighborhood has many walkable attractions, places to eat, local shopping stores.

We live in Minneapolis but are always on call and will be exceptionally responsive to our guests needs or questions.

Convenient to excellent breweries, cafes, and restaurants: Rose Patisserie, Yum, Magic Noodle, French Meadow Bakery and Cafe, and many other fantastic choices all nearby. If you’re in the mood for cooking in our modern kitchen, Whole Foods is 3 ½ blocks away (an 8 minute walk).

Our modern cottage is near 5 universities: Macalester, Concordia, Hamline, University of St. Thomas, and St. Catherine University! Great for parents visiting their college kids! Or, if you are looking to explore everything that Minneapolis / St. Paul has to offer, our cottage is an equally short ride from the downtown areas of St. Paul and Minneapolis. Enjoy activities year round. Only blocks from the beautiful Allianz Field where the Minnesota United play. Catch a Twins, Vikings, Wild, or Timberwolves game. Check out a concert in downtown St. Paul at the Xcel Energy Center. Walk along the Mississippi. You’ll love exploring the Twin Cities and then coming back to a quiet and comfortable home. Whether you’re in town for a girls / guys weekend, for work, or just to tour one of America’s best cities (or two of them ☺), our modern cottage will make you feel at home.

There is plenty of on street parking in front of the cottage. The cottage is also closely located to public bus lines, airport shuttle, and a light rail station.

I94 and 35E are close by and make driving into downtown St. Paul and Minneapolis easy.

Saint Paul

The location was excellent. The only slightly negative things were the lack of any storage drawers for clothes, uncomfortable bed pillows, and the steep stairs to the basement where the washer/dryer is located. All are typical in this area. On the positive side, there is a great heating/cooling system and new windows. The mattresses were very comfortable. The owner responded quickly to any issues. Our son and his wife came to visit and loved the unit and the neighborhood.

Cozy and comfortable home

Charming rental in a duplex. The neighborhood feels safe and friendly, with many people out chatting and walking their dogs. Beds were very comfortable, and the dining table is perfect for playing cards or games. Owners were responsive and communicative. Would definitely stayed here again!

St Paul Cottage

Our stay was very pleasant. Outside of a lock issue which was resolved in a timely manner, there were no issues. The cottage was well equipped and very clean. The local Macalester College area was a good place to be based. The indoor space was great. I would say the back yard area could have been better and we didn’t end up using it. Overall a good experience. I would stay there again when in Minneapolis/St Paul.
