A Luxury Bungalow Near Mayo Clinic

Kathy House is an Excellent long stay accommodation. Convenient to Mayo Clinic and St Mary’s Hospital. The Hosts have thoughtfully included amenities to ensure home away from home comforts. This house has been beautifully remodeled. As a home chef, the kitchen was perfectly stocked with useful wares. Our hosts were wonderful, and great communications. During our stay, Mother Nature was not kind….snow removal was necessary and taken care of. Thank you!

Shawn and Shelley were incredible hosts! My friend and I were visiting town for a conference at Mayo and this could not have been more perfect for our stay. The house is exactly as advertised and is a beautiful and functional property. Shawn and Shelley have gone out of their way to make this feel like a home away from home. From having a whole shelf of spices, a tray of various teas, a well stocked kitchen with every utensil/tool you could need to having nice details like robes, shampoo/ conditioner they have thought of every detail so that you can enjoy your stay. We would highly recommend this property to anyone. Having stayed at our share of airbnb/vrbo over the years - this was by far our favourite!!

The house and neighborhood are exceptional. The hosts were so helpful when I needed to extend our stay and responded quickly with any questions. The hosts have thought through every detail to make this home a great experience. We will be back again.

Unfortunately my family’s visit here happened to be at an unprecedented stormy week in Rochester. The beautiful and very cozy space located on a quiet culdesac also proofed to be a safe place and offered all the comfort to make my family’s visit enjoyable! I recommend this amenity highly to anyone visiting Rochester and who also wants to experience Midwest Nice❣️ - that’s how I would describe all interactions with the hosts. M. Keppler

I would highly recommend this wonderful home for anyone who will be visiting the Mayo Clinic as it is literally a 3 minute drive to the campus and back. It was so nice to be able to come back to a quiet home between and after appts and not be cramped in a hotel room, but be able to take time apart to think or be together and enjoy the scenery. The property is close to restaurants and shopping or you can prepare meals in the beautiful kitchen that is well stocked for your needs. Relaxing in front of the fireplaces was a huge plus and sitting in the lovely sunroom was amazing! I can’t say enough about Shawn and Shelly, as they wanted to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. We knew if we had any questions or had any trouble we could reach out to them and when you’re away from home for an unsettling reason, that’s huge! If we venture north again, I hope we’re able to book the Kathy House again! Thank you!!!

Nice property. Lived up to all descriptions and exceeded expectations. Will stay here again on next trip to Mayo if it’s available.

Beautiful, clean home in quiet neighborhood. Literally minutes away from everything you may need. Ye Olde Butcher, Caribou Coffee, Apache Mall and Nothing Bundt Cakes were our favorites in addition to an absolutely amazing Italian restaurant, Terza, that we dined at twice. The homeowners were incredibly helpful. No matter your reason for visiting Rochester do not hesitate to book The Kathy House. You will be happy you did.

Our hostess was very helpful and prompt in getting back to us regarding questions or concerns. The property was excellent in every way - modern very nicely furnished and coviently located

We stayed in this wonderful property for the week of 4th of July while visiting our son who lives in the local area. It was a great home base to relax and visit. Temperatures were a little warmer than expected during the week but we had no issues due to the central a/c. The property is very quite, has been meticulously upgraded and includes everything you need for a great stay. Most notable was the cleanliness of the property, which I would imagine is a necessity for others who may be visiting or staying due to the clinic. We would stay again if the owners will have us! I cannot recommend highly enough for anyone visiting Rochester.

The house was wonderful! SO much better than being in a hotel for a week and a half while my mom was at Mayo for a heart procedure. We had plenty of room for family to visit, rest, eat lunch, cook dinner, etc. Love that we had two bathrooms and access to laundry. Lovely sunroom and outdoor space as well. We enjoyed being able to use the grill. House is clean and has a wonderful stock of amenities and supplies. TVs and family rooms upstairs and downstairs were wonderful. Perfect place to stay. If we ever have to be back at Mayo Clinic or have an event in Rochester we will be staying here again!

Beautiful home in quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed the sunroom watching the squirrels, rabbits and chipmunks frolicking in the backyard. Comfortable beds, great shower, nicely stocked kitchen and full size washer and dryer. Host answered all questions promptly. Would definitely stay again when back in the area.

Like many others staying in Rochester, we were there for Mayo. Shawn’s place removed a few stressors and made the day-to-day routine easier. The home is well-appointed in every way— no details were spared in conveniences and comforts. If there were six stars, we’d leave them!
