Loved it

We loved the house with all it’s creaks and groans and plan to stay there again. And it is only 4 blocks from my sister’s house. One suggestion. A handrail on the back porch steps would be appreciated by us old folks. We had a lot of rain while we were there.

An amazing place for an incredible price

We chose this rental as the location for our yearly college friend trip and it was far better than I could have hoped. The town is adorable, but has a lot to offer both in terms of amenities and activities. Canoeing down the river was a blast, the Mall of America is a short drive, and there's plenty of room for activities in the house. The rooms are comfortable and well maintained, the beds were comfortable, there's lots of room to play games, cook, sleep, and do whatever you'd like. Perfect for a family gathering. The only critique we had was some of the plates and bowls were clearly not cleaned before we got there and still had food from the prior renters and there was a lack of extra toilet paper and towels so we had to buy more TP. Overall incredibly minor issues that had no real impact on our enjoyment.

About the host

Hosted by Jamie and Michael Carlson

We're the Carlsons—Michael, Jamie, and three young kids (and a dog). We became short-term rental hosts because we saw the value of investing in properties that could serve the communities they're a part of and show hospitality in a world where there is not enough kindness and welcome. As parents, the work has been fun and valuable as we're trying to show our kids what it looks like to work with our hands in the age of technology. We want our property to be a place of refuge—where guests can come to rest, connect with the people who mean the most to them, and get out to explore the beauties of nature.

Why they chose this property

Cascade House is a special place. Built in the 1860s, it has beautiful woodwork on the main floor, and gorgeous wood floors extending into the bedrooms upstairs. The age of the house adds character without inconvenience, though, with an updated kitchen and fully updated bathrooms. The house boasts large gathering spaces for game nights and family meals, but enough nooks and crannies that everyone can find a cozy place to relax alone. Kids will love the playroom, and the giant closet upstairs that serves as a gateway to imagination (or Narnia). For guests who cannot manage stairs, a main-floor bedroom is available, just steps off from the bathroom. Our outdoor space includes a hot tub, fire pit, and a charcoal grill. Truly, this Cascade House has something for everyone. We love spending time there, and hope you will too.
