The property was great and the host was very accommodating! We had a four generation get together and it could not have been more perfect. Great kitchen, main was spacious and the views were beautiful! Highly recommend!
Seven moms had a little get-away at this fun property! We loved the giant gathering area in the living room - it’s perfect for lounging & relaxing! And so much natural light & great views!The beds were very comfortable & they’ve created cozy spaces in every bedroom. We will definitely stay again!
Love the ease of check out instructions.Love the large roomsLove a big refrigerator Love plenty of dinnerwareLove the coffee station We’ll be back next fall!!
I have been traveling with my friends every fall for 17 years. We have always used VRBO. This property was very convenient to Stillwater which was a big plus. The house was comfortable & had so much room. Kitchen was well stocked, nice deck to enjoy the beautiful weather with a glass of wine.
We really enjoyed staying here. We’re from Minnesota but live in Atlanta so we wanted a nice, convenient property where friends & family could come and visit and this was perfect. The rooms were spacious and the house was well-equipped with anything we might need. Jo was incredibly responsive and easy to work with. We highly recommend staying here!

The inside was incredibly clean and very pleasant. The kitchen is wonderful. The bathrooms are very clean just very cramped. The hosts work hard to keep the place nice and comfortable. Thank you!
The living room and dining room in the house were awesome for hosting meetings for our team of 10. The parking situation was slightly difficult and there were a few area in the house that were not perfectly clean upon check-in but overall it's a gorgeous property and we enjoyed our stay.
and weand we enjoyed our art!
Quiet Comfortable Riverside Retreat - Just Outside of Downtown.
Had a great stay. Very clean, comfortable beds, high quality towels and bedding, kitchen well stocked. Plenty of shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. Plenty of coffee, tea and hot chocolate. This is a very comfortable home with lots of room to spread out in a very quiet part of town. Excellent communication with the host. Highly recommend this comfortable home.
The location was very good and easy to get to. The communication with Jo was very good from prior to booking to stay. Jo was very responsive and gave great information. The kitchen, dining and living area is fantastic. It worked phenomenally for a family of 10. It was great gathering area and also dining area. I would highly suggest and will hopefully return at other times of year. I would highly recommend
Hi Jo, THANK YOU for Sharing your Home, with us! It is a GREAT HOUSE and we LOVED Every part of it!! FIVE + STARS! We will be back in a couple of months and will definitely STAY WITH YOU!! THANKS, AGAIN👍‼️
The house is wonderful. The kitchen and living room occupy much of the main floor, and both are airy, spacious and bright. The main floor bedroom is smaller than the upstairs bedrooms but clean and comfortable. The main floor bathroom is clean and functional. The upstairs bedrooms are large, well appointed and clean, and the upstairs bath large and inviting. The table on the main floor has a few very small nicks, but otherwise, all furnishings are in very good shape. Both decks are inviting and look out toward the St.Croix River, although there is a busy road and a significant amount of foliage that compromise the otherwise awesome view a bit. The driveway has a significant incline compromising parking a bit, but it is manageable. The only issue we had concerned the “pet friendly” description. The owner goes above and beyond to make dogs welcome inside the home, including dog blankets, bowls and even treats available. However, there is only a small (like picnic table sized) area of grass on the property, and neighbors on both side were openly hostile toward our pets, both contacting the owner about us, including accusing us of soiling their lawn when we did not do so. There is no sidewalk to walk pets, and the road is very busy. The on site grass would be fine for a small dog, but not suitable for larger animals. We loved our stay and would encourage people without pets or with small dogs to consider utilizing this property.
