This was our third stay and we plan to return again in the future. It is conveniently located within walking (or cycling in warmer weather) distance to wonderful trails that are nicely maintained during the winter months. A grocery store and a couple of neighborhood restaurants are also within walking distance. Also, nice updates to the duplex! - Paula and Joe

A beautiful little spot in a great location with all the amenities we could hope for. Check-in was a breeze, the space was clean and well-maintained, and we enjoyed our time there very much. Would love to stay again in the future. - Leah

Andrew's place is a little slice of heaven. It was so fun to be able to have our dog too. Can't wait to go back when it's warm to enjoy the fenced backyard and Minnehaha Falls. - Katie

    It appeared that it had not been properly cleaned between guests arrival time. The bed looked unmade, dirty towels in hamper, clean dishes in dish washer, light blub burned out in bathroom. It was not a welcoming sight.

    I highly recommend that you take advantage of the well marked, spacious, night lighted alley parking spot for this rental property. Pass through the gate into the fenced backyard, and you are home, walk in the back door, go up a few steps to your door, enter the hallway and you are Home. Host Andrew is very prompt in response to messages. Having owned an AAA Multiple Diamond destination resort, which catered to travelers from around the globe, I understand how important it is to anticipate the needs of a broad range of expectations, Andrew is very good at covering this aspect of travel. The information provided is accurate, the facility is very clean, and well furnished, such that it is easy to feel comfortably home. Also, it really is just a short walk to enjoy the Falls!

    This was a great place to stay for our short trip to Minneapolis. Kitchen appliances top of the line, bed was super pcomfortable, shower worked great, laundry facilities in the basement, warm even heat throughout the apartment, big TV, comfortable sofa, fast internet, many automatic lights that turn on outside and down to the basement, dedicated parking spot in the alleyway.Location was ideal; literally walking distance to the grocery store, coffee shop, and cozy little restaurants. All in all a great stay!When I couldn't figure something out Andrew came over straight away and took care it.

    This small home is centrally located in south Minneapolis and is just minutes from Hwy 62, 494, and 94, making getting around the cities quick and easy.A grocery and liquor store are both in walking distance, along with a couple of restaurants (recommend Asian Duck Cafe), which is great. Additional grocers and retail is a quick drive across Ford bridge.The space is comfortable for two, and the kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, etc. Laundry is available downstairs, which we appreciated.

We appreciated the designated off-street parking and the easy walk to nearby businesses and restaurants. Super close to the Minihaha Falls. We could occasionally hear guests on the other side of the duplex, but honestly it was never enough to disturb us. Highly recommend The Howe Daily Kitchen & Bar for great burgers!

    Our stay was fantastic! The place is so cute and it has a fenced in backyard, which was key for us as we travelled with our pups. The location is incredible, a half mile walk to the falls. Lots of local restaurants around, a grocery store, and a liquor store. Easy to catch the light rail/bus, less than a 10 minute walk. It’s a quiet neighborhood and there’s a parking space around back. Easy access to freeways to get in and out of Minneapolis, St. Paul, uptown, etc. Our host was so nice and communicative and wanted to ensure we had the best stay possible. We’ll definitely stay here again!

    I had a solo retreat at this property and it was just perfect. So peaceful and simple yet with everything you would need for a great stay. Just two blocks away from all the paths at Minnehaha Falls. Check in and out was super easy and the host was a great communicator throughout. It is a duplex and you can hear a bit near the back entry (this was said in the description), but couldn't hear anyone from the other side throughout the house and even in the bedroom (which is off the back entry). It was a lovely place to stay!
