About the host

Hosted by Melanie Ebertz

Host profile image
My roots are in the St. Croix River Valley, the house I invite you to stay in was my Grandma Florence's! I am passionate about the river, the history & the arts & architecture of Stillwater. I love the cycling, walking and all the great things our river town offers. I am a guide of the Peruvian Andes so the valley hills keep me as closely connected to the mountains as the mid-west can get. I also design Peruvian textiles, so there is a lot of rich color & texture in the house. Having guiding in my genes, I am always happy to point guests in the direction of their passions.

Why they chose this property

Depth of character, comfort and charm! Due to the fact that I spent part of my childhood in this house, I am committed to the preservation of this historic property and making it comfortable for your stay. The valley offers many outdoor activities the house is conveniently situated and the biking & walking is superb!

What makes this property unique

A comfortable house on a large double lot that calls one to sit outside, or on the porch, and enjoy the gardens & the birds. Two porches & lots of green space. AND a Labyrinth, how unique is that!
