Family-friendly holiday rentals in Twin Cities

This is by far the cleanest Airbnb ever. Since we are a group of snorers, we had to try out the 2 couches in the adorable nooks and they were perfect. Appreciated the electrical outlets. All typical travel issues that I usually encounter were solved here. Stay at Aaron and Colleen’s. You won’t regret it.

My family and I selected Aaron and Colleen as hosts based on their five-star rating and safe location. However, we received more than what was expected. The first day, we were met with a personalized note, chocolates, and drinks in the fridge, including homemade cold brew! Such a thoughtful touch made us feel right at home. We were busy with family activities in the city, so we didn’t use the Peloton, hot tub, or sauna as expected. Still, returning to immaculate, extremely comfortable, stylish accommodation was lovely. The mattress was perfect! We also enjoyed listening to various records on the record player while playing cards and board games; it felt nostalgic. We enjoyed our stay, to say the least, and hope to revisit our experience at some future time.

Great place. Eric had wonderful recommendations for walkable restaurants and other things to do in the area. The yard and garage area were a hit. Very friendly host.

Your place was a perfect fit for our weekend plans! We could stay and relax, but also did activities in the Cities due to close proximity. Perfect fit and place to allow our fur baby to come along! THANK YOU!

It was even nicer than the photos, with a beautiful back yard, fun pool table, very clean. Jill was very responsive.

Great place to stay! Easy to get around Minneapolis. This is the best stocked, most organized rental we have ever been to. Sarah has truly thought of everything to make your stay the best.

This well-equipped home is the perfect base for exploring Minneapolis. It's convenient to lots of activities and restaurants, but a tranquil spot to relax with plenty of space both inside and outside. Highly recommend.

The hosts, Katie and Curt, were very friendly and responsive. The hot tub on the patio was a big bonus. I also enjoyed relaxing in the hammock and watching the trolley go by through the woods ($3 to take the short historic ride). And just a few minutes to walk to Lake Harriet pavilion to take in some live music or walk around the lake. I’m excited to come back sometime for this relaxing get-away!

Very cute and peaceful place. It was very nice inside and easy to get to. If you have kids or pets it's the perfect little Airbnb. it has a very large backyard with a secure fence. It even has a swing set. Our dogs loved running around.

Every you need from a household, thank you for the late checkout.

Josh & Layl’s place is exactly the kind of quirky, character-filled place we love to stay when traveling. The apartment is full of art, books, and games. We are part of a large extended family and the dining table was inviting for long talks and laughter. The location was fantastic for us as we could walk to a cousin’s home and the Windom Park. Holy Land is always a favorite and it’s practically next door. 10/10 recommend.

What an awesome lake cottage !! The morning views from all the windows were divine. The house is so ready for fun!! There was so much there that made the trip easier. Beautiful deck, great fire pit, ready for kids, and two canoes + life jackets! I would recommend this lake cottage to everyone !!

Another great stay! Super convenient, very quiet neighborhood. We so appreciate James’ flexibility in our check in!

Great location, easy street parking, and there is everything you need in the apartment though it is quite small.

The apartment was great! The neighborhood is very nice, beautiful, and walkable, very close to the university. The check-in was smooth. It was amazing for our weekend trip to the Twin Cities.

We had a wonderful stay at Jean-Claude’s! It is a beautiful place inside & out. We enjoyed that it was walkable (roughly a mile from Palace Theatre, shorter distances to coffee & restaurants, and Summit Avenue is a gorgeous walk of old mansions). Jean-Claude is an excellent host! We hope to be back someday!

Fantastic stay. The loft is exactly as described. It is charming, comfortable, and has everything you would need, including a fully-stocked kitchen. The layout is great and it’s nicely decorated. The only thing better than the loft itself is the location! Walkable to the Lake and everything in Linden Hills. It was an easy drive to get anywhere else, but I loved the spots in the neighborhood so much that I wasn’t inclined to go far. Sebastian Joe’s (for coffee/scones and ice cream), Martina, and Picnic were favorites. I went to the lake to walk as often as possible, and it was an easy hop across the street. The hosts were super responsive and you can tell they’ve put a lot of thought into the space. I would go back again in a heartbeat, and hope to have the chance to!

It was great! Maybe not for the very tall due to some of the duct work but the location met our needs. The neighborhood was beautiful and the location as close to local shops. We recommend trying "Our kitchen" for breakfast

Very nice and cozy spot near downtown. The place was as described and looked exactly like the photos. Would definitely recommend staying here.

I chose this rental for its convenient central location in a lovely neighborhood and many amenities within walking distance. Rental unit is well-equipped: bed was quite comfortable other furnishings were cozy. During my stay, it was not warm enough to sit on the secluded patio but I enjoyed the view and the privacy of that outdoor space.

I loved staying in this space! It is part of a historic mansion and really beautiful. We all loved the natural light and the tall windows and ceilings. It just felt really special. There was a nicely appointed kitchen which would have been fun to cook in (we didn’t). The beds were comfortable and the bedding was nice. The real star was the sitting room which we spent most of our time in enjoying each other’s company.

Tamara’s place was perfect- welcoming, clean, spacious, well-stocked, and right on the water. She even supplied life vests for the canoe we have access to. Loved staying here!

Alison's place is in a great location for a stay in the Uptown neighborhood. We had a wonderful short stay and enjoyed the lush and private back yard. Short walks to great restaurants and the lakes.

Really peaceful location and easy to zip around to different locations around the Twin Cities. Large living room for local and out of town family to gather and visit, the weather was crap while I was there so we didn’t get to utilize the outside spaces. Looks very nice and well kept outdoor areas though! The only downside was that the beds are a little hard (my family and I like softer mattress tops!) and the steps can be a bit daunting, the only Queen bed is located upstairs. Overall I highly recommend this location, Catherine is very sweet and accommodating!
