Thoughtful details, responsive host

Guests highlight the thoughtful touches, comfortable beds, and Luke's quick communication
A beautiful 1920s cottage on 1.2 wooded acres on a quiet Arden Hills street, 15 minutes from Minneapolis and St. Paul. It feels a world away. Cared for by Luke and Beka.

Cozy fireside sitting room, peaceful sunroom with a hanging swing, well-stocked kitchen with a coffee bar, and a glass-walled backyard studio. Hot tub and sauna open year-round.

Comfortable beds and thoughtful touches. Sleeps 10. Built for friend trips, family weekends, and anyone who could use a good exhale. Come rest.

The space
The full cottage is yours.

Main level: cozy fireside sitting area, writing desk, and living room with a sleeper sofa and Frame TV. The kitchen opens to a sunroom with wraparound benches and a hanging swing. Best seat in the house for morning coffee at sunrise. Coffee bar with a Nespresso machine and a full drawer of teas. A record player for slow evenings.

Upstairs: four bedrooms (1 king, 2 queens, 2 twins) with comfortable beds, sound machines, and bedside chargers in every room. Full bath upstairs, second full bath on the main level. Treetop views from every window.

Out back, the glass-walled studio hosts dinner parties, photoshoots, and quiet afternoons. Unheated, so best in warmer months. The hot tub and sauna sit just past the deck, open year-round. String lights on a timer for evenings outside.

Guest access
Full cottage access. Follow the driveway left through the trees. Keypad code arrives the day before check-in and changes with every guest. Garage is on the property but not accessible.

Other things to note
Built in the 1920s, so expect some character: creaky floors, narrow doorways, and a few brick steps at the entry (no handrail). A sleeper sofa and full bathroom on the main floor offer single-level access.

Pet-friendly with prior approval. One exterior camera for security.

Events and commercial use require prior approval. Message us before booking if you're interested.

Residential neighborhood. Please be considerate of our neighbors.
