Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Minnesota River

I was in town with a friend for a conference. Staying at Lisa's AirBnb was so much better than staying in a local hotel. The AirBnb was exactly as described, clean and had everything we needed for an overnight stay. It is near campus but in a quiet area. I would recommend it to anyone visiting their kids who are studying at the U of M in Mankato. Very pleased!

Another fantastic stay at Jarrod's Mancave! The space was spotless and had everything I needed for a comfortable visit. Jarrod is a great host and communication was easy, he made sure everything was taken care of.

The home was exactly as published and perfect for our needs! We booked the location for a family gathering, we had 4 adult couples and 3 kids staying, as well as a couple of local family members dropping by during the day. It was easily located near the airport for those flying in and near the Mall for a day-trip to entertain the kids. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor space for family seating and dining, the kitchen was well stocked with any utensils and cookware we needed, and the bedrooms were spacious and clean. Having 3 rooms with king beds was a nice addition. John-Lukas was a great host and was communicative and helpful with any questions or needs, even helped return a lost item that was left behind after our stay. We will definitely be looking at this house again to rebook for a similar trip in the future.

This home was immaculate and ideal for a trip with my husband, 3 kids and mother in law. The big dining table was perfect for big family meals and for game night using the home’s stocked game cabinet! The kids loved the waffle bar that the host provided and the grownups loved the local coffee beans Jesse left for us. A great place to stay with the family!

Love the house and has all we need! They have a lot of stuff for kids and have kitchen stuff other airbnbs don’t usually have. We enjoyed our stay!

Place was exactly how it was described and close to everything. I will definitely book again if I’m in the area again.

Gina’s place is absolutely gorgeous! Everything in the space is so thoughtfully done. We will be back!

Perfect place for my quick trip to visit family nearby. Walking distance to food coop, coffee, restaurants. Nice, quiet neighborhood. Cool bathroom tiles. Spacious. Lots of good information in notebook left by Josh. Great communication. I will definitely look to stay here again when next in MInneapolis.

The space was clean, comfortable, and well-located - perfect for exploring the neighborhood and nearby Macalester College. The private balcony off the bedroom is especially nice.

We have stayed at Debbie’s place multiple times and it is always a great experience. Great location, well designed, clean and great communication. We highly recommend it.

My friends and I really enjoyed the space and the location!

A Fantastic Stay at Sable 204! This place is a great find! Self check-in was super easy, and communication with the host was fast and smooth throughout our stay. The covered parking spot is a huge plus—just steps from the unit, which made coming and going incredibly convenient. The unit itself was very comfortable, with a well-stocked kitchen that made cooking a breeze. Located in the heart of the North Loop, we were close to everything—restaurants, shops, and entertainment. Highly recommend staying here if you're visiting Minneapolis!

Very sweet spot. Bigger/better in person than in the pics. Although it is all one open space, there is some privacy in the two sleeping areas.

Beautiful place, as described, and the little touches (food, snacks, etc) were very nice to have. Would recommend to anyone!

A great place. Cozy but spacious. Super clean. We didn’t arrive until after 10 PM, but Susan was fine with that.

Jodi's place was the perfect house for our team to stay. We were in town for a conference at the convention center and house was about a 10 minute drive from the center, and we saved hundreds of dollars over is staying at a hotel in town. I would look to stay here again if I return to the Twin Cities.

It was a great place all around. My daughter got married in the area & we used the house as a pre wedding area. Beautiful location & big enough to house all the girls! Definitely would be a great place for a family gathering!

Absolutely beautiful and peaceful little getaway on the river! Our host was very responsive and accommodating. The cabin was immaculate and wonderfully decorated. We will definitely be back again!

This was our 5th year of staying at Castaway in the spring. Love the area and the quiet peaceful lake. There are lots of golf courses and antique shops. There are plenty of local restaurants within a few miles. Vicky and John are very quick to respond for any needs or questions. It is a rare thing these days to receive the customer service and experience they give.

Staying at this lakeside cabin was an absolute dream. The cabin itself is incredibly charming, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully equipped with everything you could need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Waking up to peaceful views of the lake and the sound of birds in the trees felt like pure serenity. The host was welcoming, responsive, and full of great local tips. It’s clear a lot of care has gone into creating a space that’s both inviting and special. We left feeling rested, recharged, and with our kids already talking of coming back. Highly, highly recommend!

Beautiful house on the lake. Loved seeing the geese in the mornings just hanging out on the lawn. Very comfortable beds , kitchen was modern and many useful utensils !

We loved Bruce’s place. It really did feel like staying at a beloved grandparent’s home. It’s spacious and comfortable, with good beds and linens, and is stocked with everything anyone might need. The setting is delightful. A massive backyard to play in and the hiking trails one a pick up at the edge of the property line. Six of us stayed comfortably while attending our daughter’s graduation in Northfield. Afterwards we had a family cookout, played outdoors games, and enjoyed sitting together at the fire pit. We’d definitely stay again and explore the cute town and the nature trails.

Our stay at the Cozy Cabin for a family wedding was perfect. We were there in early May, so we did not enjoy all the lake amenities, but the setting was beautiful and tranquil. The cabin was spotless, and the dining room table was wonderful for gathering around for conversation and games of cards. Laura was a very responsive host and was kind enough to grant a special request.

Nathan’s Cabin was the perfect location for my weekend trip with friends! From amazing lake views to winding down next to the fire pit we overall had a great time and would do it again!
