About this property

The Cozy Colfax House

  • Summary:
    Welcome to the Cozy Colfax House in Wadena! This 1950's charmer has been tastefully renovated and professionally decorated to suit the business traveler or the family on vacation! Within a short distance to several amenities including the Maslowski Fitness/Wellness Center (Indoor Water park!), Hockey rink, school and parks!

    With 3 bedrooms 2 baths, living room, basement family room with wetbar and air hockey table, even having a "stay-cation" here will be....well...cozy!

    The Space:
    The bedrooms have the following:
    Bedroom 1: King Size Bed
    Bedroom 2: Queen Size Bed
    Bedroom 3: Full/Twin Bunkbed
    Basement: Pull-Out Bed (It should be noted it is just a twin and is pretty firm).

    Main dining table seats 4 comfortably, but there is a 4 person bar in the kitchen and another dining table in the basement.

    Full bathroom on the main floor and another full bathroom in the basement.

    Laundry in basement utility room.

    2 Car attached garage for parking

    Guest Access:
    You will be able to access all areas of the home except for the owner's closet. The electrical panel room will be locked, but there is a hide-a-key on top of the door trim in case a breaker trips or if there is a water leak, the main is in there and can be turned off. Please know I have several tools in that room and I would prefer for them to not be used unless there is an emergency.

    Other Things to Note:
    Please know that the bottom 3 steps of the staircase leading into the basement are not at the same height. Due to the older nature of the home, the stairs are not 100% evenly distributed height-wise. The third step from the bottom has a larger drop and the last step has a small drop.

    Interaction with Guests:
    Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns you may have! I'll be checking in on your stay periodically to make sure everything is ok!

We were in Wadena for our mom’s funeral. The home worked great for family to gather together the night before the funeral.

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The house is really nicely updated and everything was very comfortable. All necessities typically expected were provided. Kitchen had everything you need. Plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, soap, shampoo, conditioner etc. lots of bath towels, hand towels and wash cloths. We really enjoyed using the hot tub. It was large and easy to use.The front door code didn’t work for us. Luckily we also had a lock box code so we could get in the garage. Only complaint would be that the home could have been cleaner. The floors were pretty dirty and gritty. The dishwasher was full of dirty dishes and very stinky. We asked for an extension on our check out time and the owner was very responsive. He gave us an extra hour which was nice.Overall we really enjoyed our stay. We would definitely stay here again.
