The Cottage is sandwiched between our beloved Minnehaha Falls/Park & Lake Nokomis and situated in one of the VERY most popular locations in Minneapolis/St Paul.

We realize people may not remember everything we do as hosts - but will remember how we made them feel as guests. LOCATION: Close to the Mall of America & major highway thoroughfares makes getting around Minneapolis/St Paul and surrounding suburbs almost effortless. Close (but not too close) to MSP International Airport makes it an ideal location for International travelers and guests with close travel connections. The Cottage is steps from THE GRAND ROUNDS, which is the nation's only urban-based National Scenic Byway. It is part of the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board's 6,400 acres of trails, lakes, parks, and recreation facilities. The parkways and paths are divided into seven segments and together form a nearly complete loop through Minneapolis as they connect 14 natural lakes, three creeks, two waterfalls, and the Mississippi River. Because of careful planning and strategic land acquisitions, all waterfront and rights-of-way around the lakes, creeks and river segments are in public ownership. Walking distance to Lake Nokomis & Minnehaha Falls/Park at The Mississippi River and steps from The Grand Rounds make it easy for guests to explore what Minneapolis/St Paul is MOST known for - our LAKES! After all, this is why we are called "The Cities of LAKES" :) METRO TRANSIT: Is one block away with access to The Light Rail/Blue line, which whisks guests to US Bank Stadium, Twins Stadium, Downtown, MOA & MSP. Guests can switch to The Green Line to access St Paul. OUTDOOR: The Cottage hosts a private outdoor lounge/patio area w/pergola, canopy and fire table surrounded by mature organic gardens and herbs.

We were in the cities for our daughter’s graduation and the cottage was perfect for the two of us! Very clean, comfortable and nicely equipped. The outdoor space was great!
