About this property

Fox Glenn Farm - Rochester Getaway Home Scenic Quiet Clean Modern - Pets Welcome

Unwind in this newly remodeled single level farmhouse decorated for your comfort. Fox Glenn Farm boasts 3 bedrooms including a large master suite. We can host up to 6 guests. Two full bathrooms with tub and shower give everyone a little privacy. With essential amenities like a laundry, air conditioning, responsive heating, and free WiFi, guests will feel right at home. Thoughtful details throughout the house make your stay easy and comfortable. The charming atmosphere of this property is perfect for a relaxing getaway, business stay, or an extended stay at the nearby Mayo Clinic.

Big windows offer views of the sprawling farmlands that surround this private home. No neighbors in sight. This house was built in 2007, and has just been remodeled for a clean, contemporary feel that also honors the 110+ years the property has been in our family. The exterior of the home is still a work in progress. While it is clean and comfortable, we are still working on the landscaping.

Relax on the cozy sectional sofa in the spacious TV room. Watch a movie on the big TV, enjoy the fireplace, pop some popcorn, and surf your laptop. Our kitchen is a cook's dream with plenty of prep space and all of the gadgets and utensils needed for a perfect meal. You may be in the country, but never fear! Doordash and the local grocery and liquor stores all deliver to your door for a perfect "do nothing" day.

We accept up to 2 pets and want them to feel welcome. Special bedding and treats provided.

If you enjoy the outdoors, this is your perfect landing spot. Over 8 acres of rolling hills on the property to safely explore, miles of country roads to bike, and many parks to visit. Fishing, hiking, birding, hunting, and more are all just minutes away.

A long evening on the patio or in front of the fireplace with your favorite beverage will make Fox Glenn Farm your favorite getaway.

Wow. Best of both worlds!
Beautiful, comfortable, warm, modern home on a gorgeous farm with extensive views. The owners communicated so well throughout the process to make sure our stay was enjoyable. They left a hospitality package that was above & beyond expectations. I am a difficult man to impress, and I was blown away by this gem of a property. They have thought of everything. Don't ever stay in a hotel when you can have this experience.

Just book it!
Don’t think twice, just book it!! This place is wonderful, and the pictures don’t do it justice. Everything is newly remodeled with the perfect touch of antiques & traditional decor. If you’re coming in to see family for the holidays, book this place! It’s a great place to come back to and unwind when your family is driving you nuts. The layout is perfect. The kiddos down one hallway with two bedrooms with twin beds and a bathroom, then the master off the back with an in suite bathroom. If you’re coming for the Mayo clinic, this would be a wonderful place to stay as you seek treatment. An oasis where you can relax and soak up nature. Plenty of places to lounge like the sitting area with lots of sun, or the family room with the super comfy couches to nap on & catch up on your favorite shows. If you’re coming for a vacation, this place is awesome. You can go into town and do everything you need to do, and then come back out to the country and relax and unwind. There are plenty of games and entertainment for the whole family. This place is spotless, with a literal chef’s kitchen. Brand new appliances (stove, microwave, ninja coffee maker, & more) All of the cookery and utensils are high end (no dollar store stuff) along with the other amenities offered at this home such as the washer & dryer This is the perfect home away from home. Sonia & Lisa (the hosts) are the most caring & sweet people. They have thought out everything, so you don’t have to!

Top notch!!
Chose the place for the dog to get out in the country. The humans were overwhelmed at how nice the property is!!! There was nothing left out and the extra touches were so thoughtful! As a person heavily into decorating I appreciated how well that was done. I would stay her again and again. Thank you !!!

About the host

Hosted by Sonia Furini

Host profile image
I grew up in the South. Born in Mississippi, raised along the Gulf Coast, I joined the Navy and spent many years on the East Coast. My wife, Lisa is a native Minnesotan. I love to travel, she loves to stay home. Opposites attract! But we find common ground at our Fox Glenn Farm. This property has been in Lisa's family for over 100 years. We love spending time in the garden, watching the clouds, and all the time we spent remodeling the house just for our visitors. In our retirement, we are excited to offer such a beautiful property to travelers to our state. We love Minnesota and know that you will enjoy your time in our area.

Why they chose this property

This beautiful homestead has been in the family since 1913. Once a family dairy farm, Fox Glenn (named for Uncle Glenn) is now a beautiful hobby farm ready to welcome you to the quiet countryside. Rolling hills covered in green crops surround you in every direction. Hardwood forests harbor wildlife of every kind. The sky is BIG and the stars are unbelievable bright. Towering pine trees planted in the 1800s stand guard over the property. There are no neighbors to be seen. This is truly a secluded getaway. But you are not far from all the amenities of the city! Rochester is just a few miles away and you can relax while Door Dash delivers a hot meal, or HyVee Grocery brings everything for your own meal prep. The best of both worlds. Quiet countryside for your relaxation, and bustling nightlife just a few minutes away.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy the peace and quiet! Listen to the wind in the pines. Feel the sun on your face. Watch the deer nibble grass in the field. Track a Bald Eagle across the big sky. Room to stretch out and just be you. Ready for a change of pace? Downtown Rochester is only minutes away. Live music, restaurants, shopping, events, and entertainment are all waiting for you. Many visit Rochester for the Mayo Clinic. Valet parking at the Mayo Building is just 20 minutes away. This property can be just what you need when you need it.
