Home was clean and very unique! We really enjoyed the fitness room and game room. If we are in the area again hope to stay here! ##### Eric F. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wayne H. 26 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Wow! The Minnesota Gopher-themed decor was cool! The whole house was very clean and ready for us to move in for 4 days. Location was perfect for us - we were in town for Minnesota Wild hockey game and Mall of America. The hosts were great in communicating back and forth when checking in and out. The property has a large garage converted into a fitness center with a game room/arcade upstairs and a sauna on the main level - the grandkids enjoyed these features a lot! If we choose to do this again, we will definitely book this house again! A ##### Wayne H. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 ---
