Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Rochester

We stayed at the The Cozy Blue Haven for 2 1/2 weeks. It truly felt like our home away from home. Erin and Jacob thought of every amenity to make sure our stay was comfortable. Erin was very friendly, responsive and so easy to work with. The location is perfect for taking walks. If we visit this area again, this will be the first place we will look to see if it is available. Thank you for providing such an enjoyable stay!! -Nicole Hansen

Loud construction noise during this trip, since neighboring house is getting sided, but that’s just the luck of life. This is a great spot – our favorite whenever we come back to Rochester!

Very nice house. Well equipped, spotlessly clean, excellent instructions. Location great near to my family in a lovely quiet and central area. Near to everything. Have already booked again twice for the coming months. Ila is a great host highly recommend

We were staying in Rochester for a wedding and lived at the Kottage for three nights. If you have up to 5 people in your party, it's a great space. Wonderful kitchen with everything you need. Beds are comfortable. Bathroom is clean and has a great shower. Very quiet and peaceful. If we ever find ourselves returning to Rochester (we're in Tennessee), we will definitely look into reserving this space again. Well worth the investment!

This is an excellent house. Walking around the pond is very nice as well as great walks through the neighborhood. The house has lots of nice features and amenities. It is an easy drive to Mayo. Highly recommend staying with Joy.

Tiffany was extremely responsive and communicated very well! The home was beautiful, especially with the outdoor views. Such a great place to stay at.

This house was perfect and Hana was so kind and helpful. We were traveling with our 14 month old and everything we could have needed was provided. It was such a nice place to go to after long days. We'll plan to stay here again when we have Mayo appointments.

This place is tremendous. Pamela’s home feels so awesome like you are on a luxury vacation but so comfy it feels like home! Literally everything you could need or want. Everything is top notch. No cut corners here. From the furniture, the bed and beddings, TV, soft blankets, the view!!! I could go on and on. The kitchen is perfection. Modern and all the pots, pans, silverware etc are upscale. Heavy duty and a breeze to use and clean! The kitchen was so fun to cook in! The deck upstairs has a beautiful view and a really cool huge table: The theater and game room was so fun. The TV is ginormous… we had a blast up there. The themed rooms are done so nicely and the beds are big and comfy! The master bedroom has a huge closet and the connecting bathroom is a fantastic. The heated floor tiles are a dream! The garage is huge and the neighborhood is lovely Do not hesitate to book this place, it is exceptional and the host is wonderful and very accommodating. A+++

Perfect location about a 10-minute walk from Mayo, a grocery co-op, and a dozen great restaurants. Mei's place looked exactly like the photos and was spotlessly clean. Having a washer and dryer and fully functional kitchen was a great benefit for a week-long trip. I would stay here again.

We loved this little apartment! Felt like home and great place to just relax after all the appointments and testings we had to do at Mayo. Would 100% rent this place again in the future.

Awesome place! We stayed for almost two weeks while a family member was at Saint Mary’s. It was so close, and saved us the stress and money of parking daily at the hospital. Britt was very responsive when I had a question, and provided clear instructions for checkin/out. Great experience, and would definitely stay again!

Hema was a fantastic host. She was extremely responsive and super easy to deal with! The place was just what we needed. Simple, clean, efficient. Everything we needed for our extended stay. Thank you!

Highly recommend this space and host. Clean and well organized upon arrival. Clear and detailed instructions for everything, along with local recommendations. The backyard is beautiful and we saw so much wildlife during our stay. Birds, otters, woodchucks, deer and more. Walking distance to quarry hill park which is lovely. There is a bus stop about a block down the road so it was easy to get around even when we didn't have our car for a couple days. The host was incredibly quick to respond and very kind.

During our 1-week stay, we appreciated the closet space, clean covers, having a washer/dryer to use, a big table, and comfy recliners. Wi-Fi was fast and the TV was really nice. Had the feel of like a nice and cozy finished basement. Some things to know: The bathroom was a tight fit and the shower liner doesn't seem as clean. Also, some of the towels are stained, but there are some cleaner ones and there's bleach in the laundry room if you want to wash them. Plus, I recommend bringing a towel or sponge to use for dishes. Overall, we had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay. We took a long walk through the city and could easily walk to Aldi or Hy-Vee for stuff. John responded to our needs as soon as he could (i.e. paper towels and tissue). Would definitely stay here again. Hopefully, it'll be available on our next visit to Rochester :))

Great place with a responsive host! The apartment is in a convenient spot for walking to downtown but felt more like suburb then city. Would definitely stay here again!

Emily was an amazing host! Checked in periodically to make sure I had everything I needed.

Host was extremely helpful, very attentive to how my stay was going. Highly recommended!

The apartment is clean and comfortable. The bed is comfortable and the linen is of good quality. It is in the back of the building, facing the parking lot and away from street noise. Most importantly, it is about five minutes walk from the Mayo clinic and downtown restaurants. On the minus side: The kitchen sink is minuscule, equipped with a bathroom type faucet that makes it difficult to wash even dishes, let alone pans; the shared washer and dryer are often busy, because the cleaning crew uses them as well. That said, it was a good value overall.

The house was exactly what I needed. It was a bit smaller than her pictures and there were a flight of steep stairs I was not expecting. They have done a nice job of providing everything one would need and more. Thoughtfully set up. Close to the mayo clinic a short walk of a few blocks. I think this space is perfect for one person, two may find it a little smaller than but it is still very comfortable. Thank you both

We had a great stay with Jackie. We had easy walk to mayo clinic as well as many wonderful shops and restaurants. I would definitely recommend this place and anyone staying here to check out the Old Rooster antique shop as well as Midwest vintage toys and the arcade all of which are basically right across the street.

Greta place to stay with a responsive host. I would highly recommend this location if you need a place to close to Mayo Clinic or the downtown area.

Everything was great, just what we needed for our stay at Mayo

I stayed here for a week while at Mayo Clinic. It was a wonderful place to rest and recover. The beds are very comfortable, the place felt modern, and it was way more convenient than a hotel room. Had everything I needed for the stay. It is downtown, so there are some downtown noises - the train, traffic, etc but that didn’t bother me at all, I knew this going into the stay. Also, stairs to get to the unit, again not a problem for me. Perfect place, will be back.

Close to Mayo. Super responsive host. Very clean. Minimalist style.
