Mom’s House

Such a wondrous find. In town with my own near octogenarian mother for tests at the Mayo, she had absolutely no problems cruising around this absolutely gorgeous home with her walker. Space galore!! She was sure to point out the pinch pleated drapes and sheers, the original hardwoods, and the absolute down home feeling. In fact, she said she “could live here if my home wasn’t in Illinois.” We were only two but this space is phenomenal for groups of 2-12, or more.Less than 10 minutes from the Mayo, in an extremely quiet neighborhood Mom’s House has many modern updates with the homespun feel of going to “Grandma’s” house. Games galore for kids/adults of all ages. The entire basement is such an incredible Rec Room!!! The small, well thought out touches are just unbelievable. Cannot recommend this home enough!!!

BEAUTIFUL HOUSE NEAR MAYO CLINIC

“Beautiful house, fully equipped, clean, spacious, and comfortable, close to everything, just as described. The master bedroom has a king-size bed that can recline. The house is a 5-minute drive from the Mayo Clinic and a 30-minute walk. It’s also a 10-minute drive from St. Mary’s Hospital. Lovely surroundings with beautiful parks. Colette, the host, is super attentive, kind, and always ready to help if you need anything extra. It truly feels like a home away from home. I highly recommend it.”

Home away from Home

It was a great weekend!! We went to Rochester for my daughter's Dance Competition. We had to be there for 3-4 days and hotels were just too expensive. The house was great. It was like going to stay at grandma's house with a few modern updates. Check in was extremely easy with no issues. We saved a ton of money from not getting a hotel and saved on going out to eat because we just bought groceries and cooked there. It was in a cute labor very close to the civic center he. Also loved all of the board games, ping pong table, and the four season porch. We definitely will be renting this place again. It was an amazing experience for my first time using VRBO!

Most organized stay ever

The house is exactly as advertised. The rooms were comfortable. My in-laws prepared a nice family meal in the kitchen. Everything is well organized and labeled. The appliances all worked and everything was set to go. Lots of nice little extra (e.g., an umbrella for a rainy day).The house is a short drive to Mayo, in a nice neighborhood.The owner is very responsive.

Great stay in Rochester!

This home was just what we needed. It is in a quiet neighborhood with quick access to Mayo facilities as well as a sweet neighborhood park for walking. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we could ask for. The beds were comfortable and the house was easy to negotiate for someone using a walker. The host was very attentive and answered all questions quickly. The lower level includes a nice playspace for young children. I would not hesitate to stay here again!

This property is a true gem! My husband and I stayed while we were at the Mayo Clinic for a few days. We found the property to be very clean and well thought out. The beds were very comfortable. The towels and linens were nice and everything we needed for our stay was provided. We were both very impressed with the little details the host had provided. The property is as advertised. We will definitely chose this property again when in Rochester!

Visiting family

We had a great stay. We usually stay at a hotel to visit our son in Rochester but this time decided to VRBO because we wanted to celebrate his birthday with family. The house was perfect. Well maintained, super clean, great location and the ping pong table was a surprise hit. We will definitely stay there again!
