Great for a family stay!
We enjoyed our stay! It had everything we needed for a long weekend, and would love to see all the plants in full bloom in the summer. Location was close to downtown, the airport and there are several good restaurants nearby.

A VRBo for Thanksgiving
This was a good and reasonable option for gathering our family from afar and staying near a son who lives in Minneapolis. The house offered everything we needed for a Thanksgiving stay.
