About this property

Charming farmhouse with 4 bedrooms and WiFi, AC in delightful Alexandria

Indulge in the tranquility of a unique farmhouse-style home, a serene oasis nestled in the heart of the West Central lakes area. It's a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort, offering you a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

ON SITE MANAGER lives in the third floor apartment and is always ready to assist you during your stay. The entrance is shared with the manager but interaction is minimal.

The home is nestled on a tranquil, wooded lot between Alexandria and Osakis, Minnesota, offering a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. The great outdoors include a fire pit, wooded walking areas, tetherball, other outdoor games, and a furnished deck with a ramp to one of the main entrances.

Your rental includes full access to a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances, a spacious dining room, and a cozy living room area on the main floor.

These attractions are nearby and easily accessible, making your stay more enjoyable.

The Guest House is smoke-free, maintaining a clean, cozy, and welcoming ambiance with its charming farmhouse-style décor. Your stay at The Guest House Alexandria MN is funding the Titus II, Inc ministry. Our future plans are to have a park north of the house called “Pathway through the Bible Park”.

Great house
The house was clean and welcoming. Our stay was great. The manager lives on the third floor however and I think that should be listed in the listing. It wasn’t necessarily a problem but I think people should be made aware.

The location was easy to find. The house was clean and had a bed for everyone in our group of 9. It was easier to relax in a home and preparing our own meals there vs a hotel with little rooms and only a microwave. Location wasn't far from shopping or restaurants. Such a cozy place to stay and would definitely stay there again.

Onsite property manager accesses their space through the rental
The house itself is great - both clean and comfortable. However, the property manager lives onsite (which is mentioned in the ad). However, it was not made clear that the property manager needs to pass through the rental unit in order to access her space. This was not communicated to us until the morning of check in. This should be made clear in the description of the property. Also, the house serves as a Christian retreat center. While I don’t have any issues with a Christian retreat center - it would have been easy for the property manager to minimize some of the overt Christian messaging. There were Christian books/magazines in every bedroom, donation request forms in the kitchen, and a HUGE cross in the front yard. If the Christian messaging is to remain - it should also be made clear in the description of the property.

Cozy family getaway!
Mary was a very kind host. She lives on the top floor but let me know ahead of time when she would be coming or going. I was here with my family of 6 as we just needed a place to stay for a night traveling home. The home was so adorable and had coffee/tea available in the kitchen, Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and included extra pillows, bathroom essentials, and extra towels. We enjoyed our tea on the main porch of the house in the morning. My only note is the highway was very noisy at night so be aware of that if you are looking for a quiet neighborhood. Great stay!

Lovely well equipped and stocked home
We were only in town for a wedding for a short visit but this home was a perfect spot for what we needed. First floor bedroom is handicap accessible. Beds were very comfortable. Kitchen is very well stocked. Would stay again. The only thing the listing may not mention is that the property owner lives on premises on the top floor of the home and needs to come through the house to get to her apartment. Wasn’t a problem for us but it may bother some people, especially if they aren’t aware before booking.

Nice for big family
Beautiful house, very clean but not quite the right fit for my husband and I! It would be great for a big family get together but not as much a honeymoon getaway because the owner lives there with you! Great Christian woman though!

Wish we could have stayed longer
We were in town for a funeral and needed a place for 6 adults. The 3 bathrooms and 4 bedrooms was perfect. There's one bedroom on the main floor and 3 upstairs. It is an older, sometimes creaky farm house, but it was VERY clean and the kitchen was stocked with everything you could ever need for cooking. There's a nice deck and side yard, too. Our teen kids enjoyed the tether ball. It was in a perfect location for us - close to Carlos, Nelson, Osakis and Alexandria. We will definitely stay again.
