Manor on the River/Hot Tub/Pontoon/Jet Ski/Kayaks

What a place to be all together with enough space to spread out or be in our own retreat space if you want. The floor plan offers a grand open floor plan with 23' ceilings and also offers intimate areas like the living room with grand piano or the lower level family room with cozy real wood fireplace and it's own kitchen. The outdoor space is just as grand with a huge deck overlooking the beautiful Mississippi and LL Hot Tub The bedrooms are separated by living spaces for your privacy.

Enjoy a classic Minnesota trip and and come stay on the Mississippi River! This 6-bedroom, 5-bathroom riverfront vacation home boasts 5,000 square feet and comfortably sleeps 12. Spend your days renting the private pontoon and browsing the boutique shops before you enjoy all the amenities the house has to offer, including your very own hot tub!

This impressive home was an original farmstead house and the property used to include much of the surrounding area. You and your guests will have plenty of room to spread out over the home's expansive open floor plan and be able to enjoy views of the river from practically every room.

Unwind on the plush sofas in the Great Room and turn on the 82" Smart TV. When you get a little chilly, turn on the gas fireplace and warm up the space. Grab some fresh air on the expansive back deck with ample outdoor seating, views of the river, and a gas grill, or cozy up in the lower level family room with wood fireplace. Add in the private office on the main level, and there is no better place to enjoy a destination work-from-home!

Enjoy cooking delicious meals in the fully equipped kitchen which features a 6-burner gas stove, double ovens, a prep sink, stainless steel appliances, custom cherry cabinets, large center island bar, and granite counter tops. Just wow.

Wonderful!
80 degrees & sunny during MEA weekend, and the property equaled the fantastic weather in every respect!  Loved the kayaks, the hot tub, multiple decks/patios, the swinging recliners, the six bedrooms/bathrooms, grand piano, fully equipped kitchen(s)... Our experience was the best of all the rentals since our group of college women began gathering for an annual "retreat" going back as far as 1987. Thank you, Brian, for creating such a great destination.  We'll be back!

Mini Family Reunion
3 families stayed here to attend a Celebration of Life in Minneapolis. There was more than enough space for 11 of us. The kids (and one especially spry uncle) made great use of the loft billiards and ping pong, and we all enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub. The beds were comfortable and cleanliness was top notch. Our highlight of the stay was a trip on the river with the pontoon boat one gorgeous evening. This is a fantastic and relaxing property with a kind and jovial host. We so appreciate being able to bring our dog along, too. My one issue was with the VRBO platform, which would not accept payments from different credit cards. This was inconvenient, as we wanted to split the charges amongst the 3 families. I hope VRBO will add this feature soon. Thank you, Brian, for sharing your home!

Stay at manor on the river
This property was a great fit for our family. Plenty of room for adults and kids. Also so many activities for us. We had ping pong, pool, fuzball, TV, and games indoors. Outdoors we had a pontoon with a dock that could be pulled out into the river. It had a slide, inflatables that could be teathered to the dock. Brian, our host, gave us great instructions on pontoon operation and cautions about the river currents. He was there whenever we had questions or concerns. We all had a great time!

Family Gathering
Had 8 adults stay at this home. It's really a fabulous property! The game area loft is big and a great spot for all of the entertainment and fun. The kitchen was nice and everything worked well. The hot tub was 103 when we arrived which was really nice since some rentals will leave it up to you to increase the temperature once you get there which can take hours. Bedrooms were nice and the beds were decent. Only complaint is that it was hard to keep the temperature consistent throughout the house - but its big, so I understand why. The view of the river is stunning! You won't be disappointed staying here!
