Cozy Home
We enjoyed the house and it was perfect for our weekend getaway. There was an odor in the house and the stairs going up are very steep and 3 of us fell down the stairs. Other than that it was very cozy and comfortable.

Great place!
Very comfortable home with great amenities in an excellent location. Communication with hosts was great. Only issue was the outdoor lights weren’t working properly, but hosts said they would fix them for the next guest. Definitely recommend!

Great Place for Family
The home is in a very nice quiet neighborhood close to amenities. Easy on and off the highway. A great place for our family to stay while visiting for my Mother's 90th birthday. Lots of room for everyone and well furnished. The sunroom is excellent for late afternoons. Plenty of room to be able to get privacy when needed. Fully equipped kitchen. I highly recommend this house.

Great family friendly location
We had a wonderful stay! We wanted to get away from the Texas heat and this location had everything we wanted: plenty of room for all in a family friendly location near the Minnehaha creek. It was wonderful to see children riding their bikes and chasing the ice cream truck. The grocery store was super close as well as several nice restaurants. The only reason I didn't give it a 5/5 is that the a/c struggled to cool the upper bedroom on the hot afternoons. In cooler weather it wouldn't be a problem. Great stay and we would be happy to stay here again.

Lovely home in Minneapolis
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this home for a Thanksgiving trip to Minneapolis! The property was spotless, well-maintained, and felt like a cozy retreat while still being close to the city’s attractions. We traveled with a large family including young kids and there was plenty of space and good amenities. All stairways have doors at the top and bottom which is great for very young kids! The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the living space was perfect for relaxing with our family. The location was perfect for exploring Minneapolis. We loved being able to enjoy the peaceful surroundings of the cabin while knowing we were just a short drive from great restaurants, shops, and parks. The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a perfect balance of comfort, charm, and convenience.

About the host

Hosted by Anthony

Host profile image
I m a mom of two lovely kids and enjoy traveling. Spent past 10 years working in startup tech company in CA and now enjoy time with family.
I like great movies, running, hiking, rock climbing and quality time with friends and family.

Among all my work/projects, running this Airbnb is my favorite. I love our vocation home and enjoy hosting. Brining joys to our guests granted my incredible satisfaction.

Why they chose this property

Lynnhurst is a picturesque neighborhood located just off of Lake Harriet in southwest Minneapolis. Minnehaha Creek runs right through the residential area and attracts canoers and kayakers.
I enjoy running along Lake Harriet, no matter it's summer sunset or chill snowy morning, taking my kids to playgrounds parks (Minneapolis has one of the best park systems in the nation, and is surrounded by stunning rivers and lakes) , walking to the cafe 2 blocks away to enjoy my breakfast. My neighbors are so friends, they are so kind to us and I love my neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

Cozy and family friendly. We can sleep in upstairs while kids play in the family room. Enjoying a slow brunch in a sunny day with bunnies and chipmunks running in the garden, reading while holding a cup of hot coffee in the sun room are a few of my favorite things. My young son will definitely vote for the sand pit. He can easily spend hours there with his little construction vehicles.

It's a quiet neighborhood close to everything. Conveniently located to many fun places. Walking distance to 3 highly rated restaurants and 1 cafe (2 blocks). Quick access to Lake Harriet (<1mile) Minnehaha Pkwy (1 .1 mile) , MN famous bike and walking paths. The Mall of America, Minnehaha fall, MSP airport and downtown msp are all just a 12-13 minute drive away. You will be centrally-located
