Charming inside/outside needs a little TLC
The house worked well for our family. Great location for our activities and needs. The inside was clean, rustic and charming. The outside however could use a little help. You need to do some lawn work and trimming. We could barely sit on the small front porch without being attacked by weeds. Your listing also needs to advise that you are right next to a junk yard. Although there is a fence separating the property from the junkyard you can still see old cars, etc. all over. Not a pleasant outdoor presence!

I’ve never had a weed attacking me on our deck but what I think our guest may possibly be referring to is a rose bush by the steps that hangs a little over the rail when in full bloom. I enjoy it and would not call it a weed but I guess people do see things differently. We are next to an auto repair shop. There is a privacy fence between us and the shop but when you go to the upstairs bedroom and look out the window you can see the old cars,etc over the fence. I have placed the bed by the opposite window so there is no reason to hang around that side of loft area as to check out the site. The house is conveniently located off the highway, affordable, comfortable, and clean. The back yard does have a fire pit, chairs, and wood and that is on the opposite side from the auto shop so no view of anything but neighbors yards from that area. I placed the fire-pit as far from Highway as possible.

Nice stay
Very nice people. House was warm, fairly clean, and quaint. Could use a dusting in the bathroom and a bed that doesn't squeak.

Disgusting, Difficult owners
Completely disgusting and filty home. Dirty sheets on 2 beds, sheets appeared left over and not washed from prior visitors, kitchen filty, kitchen towel obviously soiled, trash can smelled and not cleaned, stivetop dirty, bug traps seen, filty bathtub. Left immediately after seeing the house. Owner difficult to reach and argumentative upon my calling her, challenged me mutiple times while speaking with her on the phone trying to get my refund. Still trying to get my full refund now, difficult process with vrbo too. Would never rent any home this owner lists. Pictures taken for accuracy of this statement if needed.

Good property/Good value
The home was older, but clean and comfortable for 7 of us. Good price for the space. The yard could use some clean up/tending. These items would have been helpful: hair dryer, kitchen wash cloth, dish towel, bathroom wash cloths, directions on the TV/remote OR state in the description they are not included. The host did not send a code for the lockbox, so our entry was delayed by 90 minutes. She did refund us $20. Make sure to get the code ahead of arrival.

Mini getaway
The house is perfect for a mini getaway. They have pretty much everything you could need. Things to know: 1. The wifi is super spotty. We were not able to connect our whole trip. But we spent most of our time out of the house so it did not impact us. 2. I recommend bringing a thicker blanket especially if you get cold easily. There is a quaint brewery in Saint Croix Falls I recommend. Also, check out Interstate Park and do a river cruise.

Happy to hear our guest found some beautiful scenic places in our area…there is so many! 😊When we arrived to clean the house the modem had been unplugged so this would explain their internet problem. We have never had issues with internet there. We do have extra blankets in a basket in the living room but anyone is welcome to bring their own blankets to our home if they prefer their own.

Great for a quick weekend
We were up here for a wedding and this was a perfect location between the ceremony in Balsam Lake and the reception in St. Croix Falls. Check in was easy and the host was quick to respond to all my messages. The house was the perfect size for our family of four and a friend. Unfortunately the weekend was super hot and humid and the two window a/c's couldn't really cool off the house the first night. Luckily the second night was cooler! A couple of suggestions for the host: Kitchen towels would be helpful, especially when guests want to use dishes. We had to use bath towels when doing dishes. Also, having some simple condiments available in the fridge, and maybe some sugar for the coffee would be nice when guests want something simple. We bought some groceries, but not having to buy an entire bottle of mustard or ketchup or a box of sugar would be helpful. In all, the house is nice. It looks as if some renovations have been done, and I feel like the bathroom might be the next project. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property for others needing a place in this area.

Outside of property/yard
The house was clean and comfortable could use washcloth and kitchen towels, directions for tv and remote for upstairs. The outside sidewalk area to enter the house was all weeds and rusty junk, old trucks, broken fences, hard to find house number...not very welcoming that was for sure and not like in the pics. Inside looks like it is in the process of updating. Again clean and quiet but, does need some tlc outside.

Home base for adventuring
We stayed here during a 5-day trip to the St. Croix Falls area. It was our home base to do other activities in the area. It was quite simple to get to the Gandy Dancer Bike Trail and Interstate State Park, among other places of interest and restaurants. We were drawn to this particular property due to the price. We knew it wasn’t going to be the nicest place, but it was pretty good. Some parts of the house look very recently updated, other parts certainly show some years of neglect. It served us well for our purposes. Regarding another review, the fridge was clean when we arrived, and the bed we used was a little squeaky but really not too bad. And I agree that the living room couches are nice and comfy. Still no TV remote. TV did have HDMI ports…bring a Chromecast or another streaming device if you plan to use the TV at all. Overall, a good value for the price paid. Based on how the owner seems to be renovating the house, I assume it will only get better.

Description of property on website did not capture true experience. Living room couches were comfortable but beds were terribly uncomfortable. Could hear springs and sunk to middle when trying to reposition. Refrigerator had orange juice spilled and ice maker didn’t work. No TV remote.

First time trying something like this
This was a great last minute find. We only needed a place to get cleaned up and rest our heads for the night, after a long day on the road. We wanted separate rooms to sleep but did not want to pay for and stay in separate hotel rooms. This totally met our needs for that. It was a little far from our actual destination but the extra drive was worth it to have more comfortable overnight stay. Thanks for everything!

Just Perfect
Better than a hotel. The property was spacious, described accurately. It appears to be under remodel which is cool and will be much better after. Now, the bathroom tub is older and need refinished, and we did not have wash cloths. There is no WiFi. We did have the essentials and for the time we were actually in the property, we were set and had all we needed. I will rent again, especially at this price! -Traxx Legion Motor Group (IG / YT)
