Beautiful location. Entire property extremely clean. Bedroom layout perfect for our group. Lots of room for entertaining. Fireplaces throughout. Convenient to picturesque (decorated for Christmas) Stillwater and St. Paul (some attended Jr. Hockey Tournament). Although December, some walked the groomed trails throughout the 14 acre property. The home itself, as well as the decor, were just loaded with character

Clean and has everything needed for our stay. Beautiful property
8 / 10Excellent·Sep 2025
House was very beautiful and had nice rooms/decor/outdoor areas. Upstairs bedrooms were small with some cramped headroom. It was difficult with 6 of us to only have one shower, but we enjoyed it! We would stay there again with smaller group.

Beautiful, spacious home and property. My group loved our days there and look forward to returning one day. Close to all the Stillwater attractions.
