Vacation rentals with a firepit in Cottage Grove

We were in town for a Celebration of Life for mom and wanted a four bedroom, two bath home. This home was perfect for our needs. Beth was very accommodating and quickly responded to my questions. The home was very clean and comfortable. Everyone was pleased with our choice. The decks and spacious yard made us feel though we were on a vacation. I would definitely go back again if we were in the area!

Fantastic stay for 8-12 people! Extremely open space, and lots of activities to keep everyone entertained. My stay involved lots of karaoke, darts, fireside chats, and enjoying coffee on the outside porch overlooking the woods. The space itself is massive, and could easily fit a large group without feeling cramped. I stayed with 7 others and we all loved the place. 10/10 would recommend! My only complaint is the amount of personal belongings that were left by the host. There was a significant amount of food and drinks left in both fridges(one in the kitchen and one in the garage) with little to no instructions on what was the hosts personal food or what was left by past guests. The bar in the garage was also stocked with some drinks and mixers, but again there were no instructions on if they were there for guests or not. A few more details about the rules could have been nice, but that is just one small complaint against so many positive features this stay has to offer!

OMG OMG!! GREAT PLACE, GREAT LOCATION. THE HOUSE WAS SOO CLEAN. WORDS CANT BE EXPLAINED HOW INCREDIBLE THIS HOUSE WAS … 10/10 BEAUTIFUL HOME!!!!

We had a wonderful stay at this charming and cozy home! The space was beautifully decorated and had a welcoming feel from the moment we walked in. We especially loved the piano and guitar - such a thoughtful and creative touch that made the stay even more special. One of the biggest highlights for us was how pet-friendly and clean the home was. We never travel without our senior pup, and it is so nice to stay at a place that accommodates her. We highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a relaxing and pet-welcoming spot!

We stayed at the pool house for a bachelor party and it did not disappoint! Being in early April we wanted to find a unique air bnb with something to do for 12 guys and we all had a blast swimming and throwing the football around. There are a lot of amenities, floatees, board game, tennis court with rackets etc. and the host was very thoughtful in setting this up. The kitchen was very nice and well appointed, the bedrooms and bathrooms were clean, and we had no issues at all. I would highly recommend this place to any group getaway!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving stay with our extended family at this property. The spacious house was perfect for our gathering, with plenty of room for everyone to relax. We especially loved watching the comings and goings of hundreds of Canadian geese, trumpeter swans, bald eagles, herons, and other birdlife from the large picture window in the main room. I've never seen anything like it! Staying here in the winter, we especially appreciated the working fireplace, which made the common area feel warm and inviting; a perfect spot to gather and spend time together. The fully equipped kitchen made preparing family meals easy, and the large dining table was perfect not only for sharing meals together but also for playing games afterward.

Our family of 4 stayed at Lindenhaus as we were visiting Carleton College with our two teenagers. The location was great - just 2-3 blocks to downtown Northfield and super easy to walk to the College. Everything in the house was clean and comfortable. We didn't use the kitchen but enjoyed hanging out in the living room. If you are noise-sensitive, you should know that the home is a block from a train crossing so you will hear train horns every few hours, including the middle of the night. The stairs are very steep and can be slippery when wearing socks. We would definitely stay here again!

The house was so beautiful and once we walked in the door it felt like home. The property was just amazing and the neighborhood was so quiet. The backyard was an oasis! Each room was decorated beautifully. We booked the trip to celebrate my grandson’s Baptism and Tom and Rachel were so sweet and bought a beautiful gift. They also made delicious kombucha which we finished during our stay. I only wish we could have stayed longer. The kitchen was stocked well and all the bathrooms were so beautiful….Especially the master. Everything was so neat and clean. Any questions I had were answered very quickly. It was just a great stay! Thank you Tom and Rachel for allowing us in your beautiful home! We hope to come again soon as we have family in the area! Many blessings

We loved our time at Brenda’s place- highlights include the excellent location for our Macalester visit and attending a United game (both walkable), the comfy beds, the terrace, the neighborhood (very quiet at night), and friendly hosts. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you!

Bob and Lisa were very flexible with us while we were in a difficult situation. We were able to extend our stay into a second week. Thank you so much. If you like being near the water and appreciate a visit from a friendly cat while you sit on the deck, this is the place to be. Those beds are super comfy!!

Loved our stay. Had our family of five and two grandparents and it fit us very well. Beds were a little firmer than our preference, everything else was stellar!

Great stay for our guest at Macalester! Close, clean and cozy! Will stay again! Thank you for your hospitality!

Super comfortable place while I experienced a stressful hospitalization of my Dad. It was a perfect spot near the hospital and gave me a great night sleep with everything I needed. Very grateful for this place!

I was on the road for 23 hours before finally arriving at Tina’s. It was my first time to Minnesota and I am very glad that I chose her place for my family and I. It was peaceful, clean, quiet and very homely. We slept so soundly. It felt as though I hadn’t left home in how at peace we were. Tina responded to any queries I had promptly. I was clean, the kitchen is well equipped, and the bathroom is very clean. The only downside for me was that I didn’t book her place for a longer time. I am definitely going back for a longer visit. If you’re still reading this please book already before someone else takes your dates. You won’t regret it one bit! 😀

We had a fantastic stay in Minneapolis! The space was clean, cozy, and had such a warm, homey vibe — it immediately felt like a place to relax and unwind. The beds were super comfortable, and we slept great. Our host, Andy, was incredibly accommodating and kind, especially with our late check-in, which made everything so smooth and stress-free. You can tell care was put into making this a welcoming space. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Great place to stay! We were with our 8 month old and Brett made the space so welcoming and helpful, as we were travelling internationally. Highly recommend staying here!

Beautiful setting, peaceful, comfortable place - only a little tough to find food if you arrive later when restaurant options might be closed (especially if vegetarian) because it is a rural area. Friendly, responsive hosts.

We really enjoyed staying here! We loved the open space and the comfortable couch and chairs which was great for hanging out and watching movies. There were towels provided for the hot tub and that was very convenient. The hot tub was super clean and in a very private area. We loved having the whole outdoor area to ourselves! The host provided muffins, which was such a nice treat. The kitchen was set up nicely and made it easy to cook several meals there. We loved the log cabin feel! Everything was just lovely for our cousin's weekend, and we would definitely stay again! Thanks so much!

Great stay. Wonderful location and spacious home.

Entry code did not work and it was Sunday night and about 10 degees when I arrived. Thankfully, host was responsive and I was in within a few minutes!

We loved our stay here! Despite being supplied with enough board games, puzzles, and conversation cards to last weeks, I spent a lot of my time just walking around and appreciating the insane attention to detail in all of the decor! It was GORGEOUS! The surrounding area was so peaceful, and we enjoyed our time observing the wild life (binoculars included!) Additionally, this is one of the best stocked AirBnbs I’ve ever stayed in. The kitchen was so user friendly, and the bathrooms felt like home. Everything was incredibly clean. Worth every penny.

Our stay at Hygge Valley Hideaway was a picture perfect weekend. Kammi was a wonderful host who clearly loves this property. The cabin-feel was so cozy, the sunset views were spectacular, and everything was clean and clearly marked. We loved our visit!

We loved staying at Chris’s place. We came in to town to see family and enjoy the snow. Sadly the weather didn’t cooperate and we only saw a small amount of snow the evening we arrived. But what can ya do?! Chris was incredibly responsive and attentive, even checking in with us the next morning as we had let him know we’d be arriving late on our check in day. The house was adorable and comfortable, we look forward to renting in the future when we come up to see family.

We loved, Loved, LOVED the cottage! So peaceful and serene, with beautiful views... and lots to look at inside too! Such fascinating knickknacks everywhere. Would love to hear some of the stories behind them. Enjoyed ourselves so much, we are definitely considering coming back!
