What guests think
At James Mulvey Carriage House Inn, guests consistently praise the charming historic character, spotless interiors, generous gathering spaces, and a well-equipped kitchen, while the outdoor pool and hot tub are standout features for families and groups near downtown Stillwater.
Many find the location quiet and tucked away yet walkable to shops and restaurants, with an uphill return from town. Hosts and managers are described as responsive, and check-in is straightforward. A few note stairs can be challenging, and extra sleeping on air mattresses or cots is less comfortable; occasional comments mention hot tub temperature or instructions. Overall, expect a characterful group-friendly stay with strong amenities and easy access to Stillwater.

We were in Stillwater for my son's wedding. The moment we stepped into this charming home, we were in love. The place is wonderfully eclectic and very cozy. The bedrooms were decked out with tubs and fireplaces, and the beds were very comfortable. The place was immaculately clean, and when we had a question, the manager responded quickly. I'm sure this place is a blast in the summer when you can use the pool. We would definitely come here again or recommend this house.

Beautiful property enjoyed the outdoors. Everything was very clean included fresh bedding, extra blankets and plenty of towels. We loved the eclectic decor. The Hot tub was not very warm it only got to 94 degrees but we were still able to use it. I think you need to tell guests about the staircase’s in the home some people cannot get up and down easily. I thought the amenities mentioned a coffee grinder that we could not find. I just wanted to pass this onto you for your consideration. Nevertheless we all had a most enjoyable time and will let others know about your rental. Thank you for everything!! Jane

Five of us ladies had a wonderful weekend stay at the Carriage House! We especially enjoyed the themed rooms/areas of the house, the big kitchen, and the hot tub (although there were extensive instructions, we almost didn't use it because we didn't want to mess anything up). A charming property just minutes away from all the cute shops and restaurants in Stillwater. Would definitely stay there again sometime!

Stayed in mid August for 4 nights. Visiting friends around the Twin Cities. This house is about 30 minutes from both spots so was perfect for us. The home is amazing. Well stocked amd clean. The kids loved the swimming pool and we used it whenever we were at the house. Even hosted some old friends and their kids one evening and everyone just swam and played. Property is on a dead end street bordered by woods on one side. Very quiet. Property managers were easy to communicate with and responded promptly the one time we had a question. It is a great summer rental but now we want to come back and stay in the winter!!! Such a cozy and inviting place. The pictures are 100% accurate. No surprises. This historic home exceeded our expectations! Thank you!

The property is beautiful, enough space for all of us. The pool and spa were excellent, beds were clean and comfortable. Close to everything in downtown Stillwater but also very private and secluded. Was woken one morning by a barn owl outside the deck, great watching the squirrels blue jays and cardinals. Close enough to the downtowns of Minneapolis and St Paul. Hiking, biking water sports are all right there. Great food and live music scene. This was an absolute perfect base for all this

My daughter and I stayed for 5 days in February. This property is at the end of a dead end street with off street parking. Check in was contactless and easy. Nathan was very responsive when we needed something for the kitchen. The kitchen is modern with everything new. My room was smaller than the pictures look, but cozy. My daughter who slept in the master had a great space. It was very convenient to Stillwater and all it has to offer.

We absolutely loved the VRBO and it was a gorgeous house! The only negative was that I thought there were enough spaces on beds for 8 people. The VRBO only sleeps 6 comfortably. The cot and air mattresses weren't very comfortable.

This was the perfect place for our family to stay while we were in Stillwater for a long weekend celebrating a 50th birthday. We were within walking distance to downtown, although it is a uphill walk back to the house so we chose to Uber back. It's in a nice, safe area with a cafe, bakery, and a bar/restaurant just a few blocks away. I highly recommend this property and would love to return during the summer months to enjoy the pool.

The kids loved the swimming pool and we used it whenever we were at the house. Even hosted some old friends and their kids one evening and everyone just swam and played. Property is on a dead end street bordered by woods on one side. Very quiet. Property managers were easy to communicate with and responded promptly the one time we had a question. It is a great summer rental but now we want to come back and stay in the winter!!! Such a cozy and inviting place. The pictures are 100% accurate. No surprises. This historic home exceeded our expectations! Thank you!
Stayed in mid August for 4 nights. Visiting friends around the Twin Cities. This house is about 30 minutes from both spots so was perfect for us. The home is amazing. Well stocked amd clean.

Lovely home for us as we celebrated my sister's milestone birthday. Enough room where we could all eat/play games/watch movies together, but also enough space where we could get away a bit for sleep, down time, privacy. Walking distance to downtown shops, but feels like a tucked away gem!

The property is beautiful, enough space for all of us. The pool and spa were excellent, beds were clean and comfortable. Close to everything in downtown Stillwater but also very private and secluded. Was woken one morning by a barn owl outside the deck, great watching the squirrels blue jays and cardinals. Close enough to the downtowns of Minneapolis and St Paul. Hiking, biking water sports are all right there. Great food and live music scene. This was an absolute perfect base for all this

Beautiful property and charming character. We rented the whole house for 3 children and 3 adults and it was perfect! The pool is not heated but since the temp was in the 90s it was refreshing and we spent lots of fun time in it.

We loved our stay! Dani was very responsive and helpful with checking in. The house was so unique and cozy for our late family Christmas gatherings. We would stay there again in a heartbeat?
