Great house for family getaway!
We ventured to Mankato for some skiing over spring break. The kids, ranging in ages from 15 to 10, really enjoyed the game room! How cool and unique from most VRBO’s! The adults and kids enjoyed the hot tub as well, which was very nice and also easy to use. The house was clean and provided just enough space; the bunk bed room was perfect for the kids. I also appreciated the Native brand soaps in the showers…nice the owners go the extra step like that! Would definitely stay again.

Nice, neat, clean and well stocked.
Clean and neat. Hot tub works well. Beds were very comfortable!Double bunk beds and game were great for kids.TV service was so-so (Sling TV only). We bought an antenna so we could watch the NFL playoffs, but it all worked out fine. Close to town and ski hill (not walking distance though). Super easy communication with host.I'd stay again. TV

We had the best time using this rental house! Hubbie and teens loved the arcade game room! Great location to drive to Mount Kato. Hit tub was a fun end of day way to relax after hitting the hills skiing. Kitchen had everything we needed. Beds and towels were super comfy! Tall shower head with great water pressure is always a much appreciated bonus!!! You won’t regret staying here!

Outstanding Accommodations
What a great spot to stay - you won't be disappointed! Some colleagues and I stayed at this property during a business conference in Mankato - what a retreat to escape to at the end of the day! The hot tub is an wonderful treat, and the game room an excellent addition - three grown men spent way too much time playing games during our off hours! This property is clean and has everything you need, with close proximity to the University, restaurants and down tow. you can't miss with this one!

Girls Weekend
Close to downtown restaurants. Perfect for a girls weekend. Gave 3 for cleanliness as cleaning service seemed to forget about cleaning appliances. Molly responded immediately when this was reported to her. The grill is charcoal vs gas. Good to know. Kitchen is stocked with the basics. Bath towels were large, fluffy, soft.

Perfect snowboarding weekend!
We brought our family of six and three friends along to snowboard at Mount Kato for that weekend. It was a 5 minute drive to Mount Kato which made it super easy to pick up and drop off children of different ages. Close to grocery stores and all of our favorite fast food treats … donuts, coffee and pizza. We enjoyed snowboarding, coming back to eat and warm up in the hot tub, and heading back out to tube and snowboard in the evening! The home was clean and cozy, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Mankato winter getaway!
Had a great time here! Normally we have to get two hotel rooms to accommodate all of us and this house was perfect! The price was reasonable and location was great. Close to mount Kato, parks, restaurants and stores. only an hour from mall of America so we were able to keep busy! The hot tub was a great addition especially after skiing. Access was easy were able to literally walk in and get settled in, no waiting to check in. Plenty of towels and linens provided. The house was decorated perfectly and provided all the essentials you needed! They did provided coupons but unfortunately they were expired. Dishwasher latch is a little tough to get to latch so you could turn on but we figured it out! Overall we had a great stay! Will definitely recommend!

helpful hints
When arriving we were told there was a lock box and key. But it is actually key pad to enter to enter the code. ( I had this kind of lock on my own house.) Future guests may not know how to operate it without better instructions. One closet door needs adjusting.
