Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Minneapolis

Omg,, this place did not disappoint, it was amazing. The nature back yard was a peaceful oasis for me the symphony noise from the birds and animals was pure bliss just like name. Beds were super comfy, the area has everything no more than 10 minutes away driving, MOA about 23 minutes away, downtown Minneapolis about 28 minutes. It was just like the pictures i felt at home. I will definitely stay here again.

We were in town for a Celebration of Life for mom and wanted a four bedroom, two bath home. This home was perfect for our needs. Beth was very accommodating and quickly responded to my questions. The home was very clean and comfortable. Everyone was pleased with our choice. The decks and spacious yard made us feel though we were on a vacation. I would definitely go back again if we were in the area!

Second time we have stayed at this home. It’s very clean and private. Comfortable and nicely renovated home. Also Pete is very responsive when we have questions. We would stay here again.

nice and cozy

I stayed at Caroline's farm for 2 weeks in April 2025. It was an ideal location for me--remote, but not too remote. I was able to work remotely for my job while I was there. The house itself is plenty big, and the outside space made it even more enjoyable--there's a very spacious back yard with a fire pit, barbecue, patio, etc. And wild turkeys and deer walking through daily! I was lucky enough that Caroline's horse and donkey were in the field near the house and was able to make daily visits to bring them carrots (very much the farm experience!). The house was equipped with everything I needed to truly "live" there. Afton State Park is really close by for hiking/outdoors activities, and I made a couple trips up to Stillwater which as a great history and restaurants/bar scene. And, of course...in Afton itself is Selma's Ice Cream parlour, definitely worth a visit or two. I really enjoyed my time here--I was by myself, but with a family or larger group, this place is ideal.

Very nice set up, perfect for us. 2 couples, 2 separate floors providing private space when needed but plenty of space for ganging out. The sauna was awesome.

We had a wonderful stay at this charming and cozy home! The space was beautifully decorated and had a welcoming feel from the moment we walked in. We especially loved the piano and guitar - such a thoughtful and creative touch that made the stay even more special. One of the biggest highlights for us was how pet-friendly and clean the home was. We never travel without our senior pup, and it is so nice to stay at a place that accommodates her. We highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a relaxing and pet-welcoming spot!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving stay with our extended family at this property. The spacious house was perfect for our gathering, with plenty of room for everyone to relax. We especially loved watching the comings and goings of hundreds of Canadian geese, trumpeter swans, bald eagles, herons, and other birdlife from the large picture window in the main room. I've never seen anything like it! Staying here in the winter, we especially appreciated the working fireplace, which made the common area feel warm and inviting; a perfect spot to gather and spend time together. The fully equipped kitchen made preparing family meals easy, and the large dining table was perfect not only for sharing meals together but also for playing games afterward.

We loved our time at Brenda’s place- highlights include the excellent location for our Macalester visit and attending a United game (both walkable), the comfy beds, the terrace, the neighborhood (very quiet at night), and friendly hosts. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you!

Loved our stay. Had our family of five and two grandparents and it fit us very well. Beds were a little firmer than our preference, everything else was stellar!

Great stay for our guest at Macalester! Close, clean and cozy! Will stay again! Thank you for your hospitality!

Super comfortable place while I experienced a stressful hospitalization of my Dad. It was a perfect spot near the hospital and gave me a great night sleep with everything I needed. Very grateful for this place!

I was on the road for 23 hours before finally arriving at Tina’s. It was my first time to Minnesota and I am very glad that I chose her place for my family and I. It was peaceful, clean, quiet and very homely. We slept so soundly. It felt as though I hadn’t left home in how at peace we were. Tina responded to any queries I had promptly. I was clean, the kitchen is well equipped, and the bathroom is very clean. The only downside for me was that I didn’t book her place for a longer time. I am definitely going back for a longer visit. If you’re still reading this please book already before someone else takes your dates. You won’t regret it one bit! 😀

We had a fantastic stay in Minneapolis! The space was clean, cozy, and had such a warm, homey vibe — it immediately felt like a place to relax and unwind. The beds were super comfortable, and we slept great. Our host, Andy, was incredibly accommodating and kind, especially with our late check-in, which made everything so smooth and stress-free. You can tell care was put into making this a welcoming space. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Great place to stay! We were with our 8 month old and Brett made the space so welcoming and helpful, as we were travelling internationally. Highly recommend staying here!

Jesse and Kris were fantastic hosts, and their AirBnb was lovely. Very much appreciated how clean it was and uncluttered. Great chi and feng shui :) The space was fabulous— high quality design and appointments. The photos can’t capture that. Very much appreciated such an updated space and kitchen with many appliances. Great light, and awesome, thriving plants! Bathroom is small but super clean with nice retro tiling. Beds, very comfortable. Jesse and Kris answered all questions quickly. There wasn’t a can opener, and they bought and delivered one within minutes. This was the best AirBnb I’ve stayed in. Didn’t meet Jesse and Kris but felt like we knew them from messaging.

The River Cabin is a clean, tastefully decorated, cozy cabin in beautiful surroundings. Emily's check in instructions were clear and easy, and she was super responsive about a question I had, solving the issue quickly. I especially enjoyed all the windows, river view, walking trails, and the fireplace. I would definitely stay again!

Beautiful place, very clean and comfortable.

AMAZING cabin. We had a family get away for a couple nights and didn’t want to leave! Great running trails, fishing, comfortable and beautiful home. The fall colors were breathtaking. Tricia was a great host! We really hope that we can come back soon!

A wonderful location and an even better house. The views, the windows, the simple yet cozy decor all made our time here delightful. Abby was so helpful, and responded immediately with any questions we had. We would (and will) highly recommend this house. Definitely hope to be back!

The Cozy Cabin was the perfect oasis to have down time from a full weekend of activities visiting family and friends from out of town. We loved sitting by the bonfire each night! Definitely would recommend and hope to visit again!

We had a great week! The main level was listed as "shared," but no one else was ever there when we were. There were 2 wonderful patios, 1 right off the master bedroom. It was less then a block to Bald Eagle Lake with a small beach. Beds were very comfortable. We would love to come back!
