Description of the Minneapolis vacation townhouse rental

This 'close-in' townhome in Eden Prairie is on the end of a very quiet cul-de-sac, right up against a wonderful 'northwoods' setting. You feel like you are well away from the world. All views in this home look into woods/wildlife area. The split entry leads to an upper level which includes living room (with fireplace), dining room, and kitchen in a great room type setting and 2 bedrooms, 1 bath. There is a private deck off the great room area-- surrounded by woods. The Master Bedroom has a walk-in closet, and a new king size Euro-top bed (15 inch mattress). There is a smaller second bedroom on this level as well. The spacious kitchen is well-equipped. Downstairs is a family room (with 2 single sleeper sofas), also with a fireplace and woods views, an office area (with internet cable and wi-fi) second bathroom and a laundry room. There is a 2 car garage.

Owner Supplied Testimonials
Thanksgiving, 2006

We're on our way after a great holiday weekend. Thanks much for the use of the townhouse -- it worked out well for us. We found it well equipt (Nancy said she didn't need to bring the roasting pan from Seattle . . ), convenient and private. We enjoyed the neighborhood trails, the restaurants and the 18 movie screens within 10 mn walking! Nancy is leaving a few things in the fridge hoping someone will be able to use them. Best wishes, thanks again and we hope to be back.

Sadly we are heading home tomorrow. We have had such a nice Christmas here, thanks in no small part to our accommodations. We could literally walk anywhere we needed to go, though truthfully we generally took the car. The location was so convenient for access for shopping, meals out, and entertainment. Yet, we felt like we were in the country on our walks through and around the Preserve. We walked around the lake next to the wildlife nesting area, and also visited the hockey rink in the park near your place. We walked to Starbucks next to Jerry's Market, as well as to Dunn Bros Coffee. We were actually able to find everything we needed for Christmas food, decorations, and gifts in a relatively short period of time. We were all settled in for Christmas by Saturday... Your kitchen is so well equipped, we were able to cook Turkey, stuffing, and the works...

We thank you very much for the stay here. What a nice area, and the people seem so friendly. Have a wonderful New Year.

We really enjoyed our stay. The freedom of a “home away from home” worked very well for us.
Amazing that you can be so close to shops, restaurants, major routes and even the airport but still enjoy such peace and quiet.
I would imagine that checking availability for another visit is the greatest compliment.

This is a well appointed town house, in a very convenient location. This was my wife's first introduction to the USA. We came via Dulles Washington, which created a very bad first impression for her. Which I am glad to say was recovered by Minnesota, the delightful house and the nice folks in Eden Prairie. Would I return to the same house, you bet I would.

My wife and I will be in town to adopt a baby...Baby Olivia is doing great, and we are getting a lot of use out of the fireplaces...We see the turkeys about once a day. Yesterday morning we saw a wolf/coyote? chasing a bunny through the backyard... It looks like we may get some more snow tonight...We have seen the deer a few times...Just wanted to let you know we will be leaving MN tomorrow morning...We had a great time and enjoyed your townhome.
