Lake Minnetonka Island Cabin

SaraRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Thank you for a charming and comfortable place to stay. We stayed for a month. Lots of fun places to go nearby. Great sunsets! Cute little place with everything we needed. Felt very homey, very quiet, nice lake location. Safe. Neighbors yards are really messy but that didn't bother us. Host was really nice.

MSP/Mall of America/Pond View with garden oasis

Kelly’s place was perfect for our needs. The two living areas gave us plenty of room to spread out, which made the stay especially comfortable. The view of the pond was peaceful and beautiful—a lovely backdrop. Everything we needed was provided, and the space was clean, cozy, and well-appointed. The workspace was also ideal for a member of our group. We truly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely return!

Spacious Home| Lake Minnetonka| Downtown Excelsior

OlayinkaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Hasan’s Airbnb was an incredible experience! From the moment we arrived, we were wowed by the spacious interior, which felt much larger than expected. It was perfect for our group retreat, offering multiple comfortable areas for deep conversations—the deck, upstairs patio, and dining room all created a welcoming environment. Parking was easy, fitting our three cars without issue. One of the standout amenities was the grill—we used it twice, and it made for such a fun way to cook meals together and bond. The home was clean, well-stocked, and thoughtfully designed. We also appreciated the games, like air hockey and corn hole, which added to the experience. Hasan himself was an exceptional host—communicative, accommodating, and kind, granting us extra time for checkout. His hospitality made all the difference, and we truly felt at home. We’d 100% stay here again and highly recommend Hasan’s Airbnb!

Modern Home with private beach on St Croix River

RyanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This was a fantastic place to stay. It is right on the river and is in a very quiet neighborhood. There is a wonderful dock with the place and there is a marina with boat ramp and rentals about 500 feet away. We fished off of the dock all week and caught Drum, Walleye, and Perch. Hudson WI is 5 minutes away and Stillwater MN is about 15 minutes away. Both towns are full of good restaurants and shops.

Charming Uptown Home - A Walkers Paradise

LisaRating, 5 stars7 months ago
We had a great stay at Nancy's place. It was the perfect base for our stay in Minneapolis. I particularly appreciated being so close to the lakes for daily walks, and Uptown is centrally located and has a variety of restaurants and grocery stores. The home was very comfortable and located in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood.

Vicki’s place was absolutely lovely. We stayed for a family wedding and could not have asked for a nicer space of more helpful host. We were 3 couples and had all we needed and more. Vicki accommodated us in several ways, from early check in to quick response to a few questions we had. We’d stay again!

Fabulous place with walking trails by the river right across the street. Very cozy bed and linens. Well stocked kitchen and welcome snacks- always a nice touch. Perfect for two as there is only one bathroom. In nice weather we would have enjoyed the beautiful deck and yard. Hosts are delightful and great communicators.

Moore Lake Retreat - Walk 2 Beach&Park by LuxLife

MarkRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This was a great place for our group of 8. It had everything we needed and was very clean. The beds were comfortable and the showers were relaxing. We appreciated the grill. We used the driveway and street parking which was helpful. The movie room and arcade games were a great bonus. We enjoyed walking to Moore Lake Park. It was a good central location for trips between our daughter’s college, Minneapolis and St. Paul. We definitely recommend Nelson’s Ice Cream and Isles Bun and Coffee. Both are a bit of a drive but you truly won’t want to miss them.

Mid-Century Modern Lake Retreat w/ Sauna

CheriRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
So much better than a hotel - my family put together a puzzle, had a fire by the lake, played games with laughter and privacy, Grampa took a nap on the screen porch, money saved by cooking and had fun doing it in a kitchen ready for anything! Everything we needed was there and more- plus labels made even light switches clear at first glance! The best comment was - "I could stay here a week!" - and the photos will be memory keepers of birds in the trees and deer across the lake and mostly my family caring for one another.

Exotic Dwelling with Fire-pit & Bistro Lights

JessicaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
I have stayed at a few air bnb’s and this one was my favorite by far. It was well worth the price, I have paid double the price in the past for places that were most definitely not as nice as this. The outdoor area is beautiful, there is plenty of space, the artwork is beautiful as well as the furniture accents. The couch is actually comfortable for lounging and binge watching Netflix. Everything i would need to be able to cook was available to me, and coffee was provided. There was a small fridge and microwave in every room, towels and washcloths in every room, two dedicated work spaces, extension cords in the bedrooms for phone chargers etc as well as TV’s in every room. The entire house was beautiful, and especially the living room and downstairs bedroom/ bathroom. Every single thing I could have thought of and even things I wouldn’t have thought I needed were available. Ms. Edna was a very friendly and clear communicator. This is top tier and my first pick. Book it!

TuviaRating, 5 stars12 months ago
The house fit our needs perfectly. All rooms and appliances were clean and there was ample furnishings (large dining room table, nice dining room chairs, plus plenty of foldable chairs for extra company). The biggest treat was a lovely backyard with plenty of tables and chairs to host our entire family, in a very quaint environment. Very quiet neighborhood with parks and walking trails in the near vicinity.

Air traffic noise may surprise guests. Neighbor on the right tends to creep around his yard. Not enough light in the bedroom to see things in the closet. Otherwise great little house and very well appointed.
