Cozy, Immaculate Golden Valley Retreat in Quiet, Central Neighborhood

Very comfortable place in a quiet residential area for a solo traveler or couple. Full kitchen has everything needed. This was a nice alternative to a few days in a hotel room for a similar price.

What a delight!!!! We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The attention to detail was evident in the condition of the home as well as the care put into decorating and furnishing it. We found the owners to be very friendly and punctual in their communication. We are excited to stay here again when we visit Mpls.

This is one of the best places we have rented anywhere, definitely a find for us in Minneapolis. The design and layout are superb, an architect/builder's vision. Small, yet with a feeling of spaciousness, ideal really only for a couple. Barbara is a superb host, detailed and helpful. I do think the sofa should be replaced and not serve as a foldout bed. We love this place.

Barbara & Jim were very welcoming and made us feel at home. Their place was in excellent condition, modern, and had all the amenities we needed

Host's and ammenities

Lovely hosts and a terrific space for 2.The rental was cozy, clean and the owners are engaged with their guests.

Small but really well appointedWonderful host and even cleaned the snow off my carVery highly recomened

Well appointed place for one or two people. Great location in quiet family neighborhood between lake minnetonka and downtown. Exceptionally clean, well stocked, and organized.the small niceties (electric tea kettle, magnified facial mirror, chocolates, coffee ...) added to enjoyment.

A great comfortable place for 2 people located in very nice neighborhood. The owners are great and want to meet the people who are renting their place. Next time we go to see our kids and grandkids we will be staying here again.

Fabulous. Clean. Cozy place. Everything you might need. Even an umbrella. Comfortable bed and pillows. Nice shower. Even a high towel bar and a low towel bar for different heights of guests. Heated floors. Wonderful kitchen. Lovely outdoor area. Best hosts. So kind and helpful. Great place for short or extended stays. Centrally located and great access to wherever you might want to go.

Very comfortable one bedroom apartment, attached to the renter’s house. Very clean with up to date appliances and nice furnishings. Modern kitchen and bathroom. Would definitely stay there again.

Very nice place. Good location. Hosts were wonderful and helpful.

This property is even better in person than it is in the photos, which is a rare and delightful surprise! The hosts were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. They are so communicative and provided so many thoughtful touches that made our stay more comfortable. The location was absolutely perfect, offering a peaceful and private feel while still being close to all the great shops, restaurants, and sights. It was the perfect home base for exploring the city and the surrounding area. We left feeling so refreshed and truly can't wait to come back. We wouldn't hesitate to book this property again and highly recommend it to anyone traveling to the area.

The space felt very homey. Perfect level of privacy and every amenity you need.

We had a cozy and quiet stay. Just the right size for two of us.

Very pleasant stay, host are very nice . Definitely recommend staying here

Attractive decor. Extremely clean. Quiet and comfortable. Amenities plentiful and well-thought-out. Everything functioned perfectly. An ideal spot for two. Highly recommended.

Simple and easy process. This apartment was perfect for us and close to my husband's family. I can envision a longer stay. Nongs restaurant is perfect.

Our second stay at this very nice accommodation in Golden Valley. Very comfortable, cozy, and quiet. Very convenient location.

The house was very inviting- quietly comfortable, with plush carpets, a heated bathroom floor and a spacious kitchen. We loved the little Christmas tree and faux fireplace with mantel. We would come back from a day seeing the Cities with family and kick back on the couch to admire the holiday decor. Bed was very comfortable, and there was lots of convenient hooks and storage. Host was generous with salt and sand on the driveway and sidewalk, in the true spirit of Minnesota. Communication with host was easy. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Fresh, clean accommodations. Quiet, comfy and cozy. Convenient location. Nice amenities.

I can’t think of anything they need to improve on. The location is central. The hosts have thought of every possible detail. Immaculately clean and cozy and comfortable. But most of all it’s the attention to detail on even the littlest things that made our stay great.

This was one of the coziest, cleanest, and most well-appointed Vrbo’s I have ever stayed in. From a bedroom clock that projects onto the ceiling to heated bathroom floors to freshly stocked ice in the freezer, you can tell the hosts put a lot of thought into every detail to make the stay as comfortable as possible. I came with my infant daughter, and Barbara went above and beyond to accommodate us, providing us with a pack-n-play, diaper genie, and a beautiful quilt to lie down on the floor for playtime. My primary reason for booking the Vrbo was because I needed a place to stay while visiting family who didn’t have space for us, but this listing became so much more than just a “place to stay”. I felt so cozy and relaxed here, and I cannot thank the hosts enough for a great stay and for all of the extra accommodations for my baby! Thank you!

Very convenient location, and the place had everything we needed. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. Could not have been happier.

Barbara and Jim’s unit is extremely comfortable. It has all the latest fixtures and technology, plus comfy furniture and bedding. Do note that you will need a car to get around as there is minimal walk ability.

This apartment is private, well appointed, clean, and very comfortable. The owners are on site, friendly and engaging, but were respectful of our privacy. The unit is located in a quiet neighborhood and was convenient for our needs. Beside the usual dishes and cookware, there were any small items available in the kitchen (dish soap, sponge, cling wrap, foil, cooking oil) - items that make it easy to immediately work in the kitchen. We would highly recommend this unit and will return if the need arises.

It was extremely clean & had everything i needed.

Pleasant stay. What a cute place and the owners are top notch! Thank you so much for hosting us!

I had one of the best, if not the best, experiences at this Vrbo. The home was clean and cozy, it really felt like home, The layout is great, comfy living area, private bedroom. Amenities galore. To get to the door, you will pass by the back of the house, so you may see the hosts, but they were respectful. I barely heard/ saw them. I had brief interactions with Barb; she was so sweet and helpful. I reached out a couple of times during my stay; response was prompt and felt she made sure I was comfortable. 10/10, would stay here again.

I recently stayed at this wonderful apartment for 10 days, and I couldn’t have been happier with my experience! From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by how spotlessly clean everything was. The space is beautifully designed with cozy cottage vibes, and the natural light pouring in from windows on three sides of the apartment was a dream come true. The apartment is equipped with new full-sized kitchen appliances and the ultra-fast WiFi made working from home effortless, which was a huge plus for me. Despite the hosts living on site, it was incredibly quiet, providing the perfect balance of privacy and tranquility. They said they could not hear my many work Zoom meetings! The hosts themselves were so kind and friendly, always available if needed but never intrusive. A designated parking spot on the driveway, complete with a security camera, gave me extra peace of mind, especially since the neighborhood itself is very calm and safe. I loved the nearby walking paths and trails that made for peaceful evening strolls. And if you want to explore the city, downtown Minneapolis is just a quick 12-minute drive away, or you can hop on a bus directly from the neighborhood—super convenient! There are also some great dining options in the area, which made it easy to grab a delicious meal without having to go far. Overall, I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a serene and comfortable stay. I’ll definitely be back!

So glad we found this place. I took my son to Minneapolis for a weekend of concerts, staying here was so much more relaxing and comfortable than staying downtown with the crowds. Everything we needed was provided, the place was spotless and the hosts were great.

The owners were very friendly and accommodating. The whole apartment was very updated. The neighborhood was very quiet and friendly. Well located from downtown Minneapolis. We really enjoyed our visit.
