Other Details to Note

This charming 1910s Craftsman has been thoughtfully renovated while maintaining its historic character. As with any older home, you may notice minor quirks such as: - Sloped or squeaky floors. - Occasional brief harmless yellow tint to the water if not used for a bit (I haven't noticed since updating all plumbing & filtered water is available in the fridge). - Harmless ladybugs or boxelder bugs (extremely common in MN). - Occasional plane noise at times (Sound machines and fans are provided for your comfort). We have a strict no-party policy - violations will result in immediate removal (I am always happy to discuss any small gatherings before your booking to see if we can accommodate!). We do have exterior security cameras & noise sensors for security purposes. Finally, please review our cancellation policy prior to booking—we recommend trip insurance. If you cancel after the policy window, we will relist the home and refund only the amount we are able to collect from a successful rebooking.

Amber is an incredibly thoughtful host. We have stayed in her home twice and both times were blown away by how relaxing and family friendly she has made the place. Super comfortable and high quality!
