We are located about 1-1.5 miles west of Mayo Clinic. You'll find us located in a beautiful, quiet and secluded neighborhood. We have a private entrance, a staircase and path to your lovely hideaway. The wooded area behind our home has lots of wildlife. It is not uncommon to see deer in the backyard, as many as six at one time! Sometimes a group of turkeys will feed under our deck, you can watch them just outside the windows of your studio apartment. We are often told of how beautiful and peaceful it is here. There is a covered patio and furniture to relax on in the evenings.

    We stayed here for 4 nights recently and loved it. It was so quiet and relaxing. My husband had surgery at the mayo and had to stay in town for a couple days afterwards. The mayo is about a 4 to 5 min drive. I would definitely stay again. We also saw a family of 3 deer right outside our window

    We stayed here while we had some testing done at Mayo, and it was an excellent place to stay for this. The kitchenette is adequate for cooking simple meals, and the furnishings are nice. There are steps around to the back of the house where the apartment is, so if you are having major surgery, this may not be a good fit for that purpose, but otherwise, it is an excellent place to stay.

    Prior to arrival, the host sent us a weather report and update due to inclement weather which was incredibly thoughtful! Upon arrival the host had soft music playing with a warm cozy atmosphere. Our stay of 6 days was impressive to say the least! Fully furnished, even offering clean towels when needed. BY FAR a better stay than any hotel! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS LOCATION!!!!!

    Clean room. 10 minutes from Mayo. Be aware of steps down to the entrance of room. Steps are not very well lit and steep, if you have any issues walking I would be wary. Experience of being at VRBO where owner lives on premises was not for us. Also, paid at total of 360 for 5 nights, but was able to move appointments around at Mayo so only stayed 2 nights. Thought the owner would provide some type of refund or discount but they did not. I completely understand that I had rented for full 5 days so that's what I owed, just thought under the circumstances they would have done a little something is all. Owners did a very good job providing detailed house rules.

    The title summarizes it…..Magical nest…beautiful from moment we entered the neighborhood and drove in the drive! Greg is so kind, welcoming, caring, helpful, and a great communicator. Gave us excellent directions before and for our entire stay. The apartment is beautiful! Bed is so comfy. My husband and I were both there for Mayo Clinic visits. It is so easy to get Mayo Clinic and so wonderful to be able to come back and relax. We felt so supported yet very private. Beautiful music playing was a welcoming touch.What a blessing!Thank you Greg and Yvonne! You go above and beyond!
