We loved staying at this property for our four day trip to Minneapolis! We were lucky to find this house that is located near so many great things Minneapolis has to offer, but also tucked away in a quiet neighborhood! And as everyone else has commented, yes, the beds are actually that comfortable! We loved having a fire in the backyard, being able to cook and eat a meal in a functioning kitchen was a gift! Plenty of room for a family of four, will definitely stay again when we make it back to the area!

We stayed here for a family Christmas. There was plenty of room for everyone. The house is adorably decorated and had everything we needed (dishes, pans, silverware, even a pack n play!). The host was extremely responsive, even on Christmas Day!

Great host, very responsive! Tonka House was perfect for our group of 5. It was pretty windy and cool so we weren’t able to enjoy the beautiful deck and yard. It had all the amenities you could want or need. We will definitely go back when the need arises.

Great little house with lots of sleeping options. Unfortunately it was raining so we could only make limited use of the huge backyard. But the fire pit was lovely and even got to play a little basketball.

We were in Minneapolis for a family wedding and my grandkids and adult children needed a house that had enough room for everyone and a big, well-equiped kitchen to feed them. This house was perfect. Beautiful and roomy as pictured. Deck and outdoor grill for outside meals. When you have a toddler and 3 year old grandkids, having enough room for them to play and nap was essential. Our host, Cecilia responded almost immediately to our questions and request. The best host I've experienced, and I've stayed at VRBO's not only in the US, but in other countries too.

If we could give this property 10 stars we would. We hosted a small Team meeting, this property offered a great space for a very comfortable and productive meeting - the huge TV made a great computer screen! We were able to bake up a lasagna and eat on the back deck and set up a small studio in the basement for Team photos and headshots. And overnight stay for a few "way" out of the area Team members. The way the world works has changed so much, for this "office" from home Team, this was a beyond perfect alternative to a Board room for our Annual Planning Day... it was everything we needed it to be for an exceptionally productive, bonding and inspiring day!! You have been the perfect hosts....when we plan for next years meeting, I am guessing this option will be on the top of the Teams list. The basement suite far exceeded expectations! Three King size beds, plus more... and the two bathrooms were impeccably clean! A few more coffee mugs would be very helpful, there were only 3. Thank you again!! It was great to get up and go in the morning not worrying about garbage or linens too! Truly a wonderful stay!!

It was a pleasure to stay in such a beautifully furnished, clean, and updated home. It is well-designed for both cooking and conversation. The beds are comfortable, and we appreciated the attention to quality bedding as well. The neighborhood is quiet, and we were even treated to a parade of wild turkeys in the back yard. We would be happy to stay there again, should we travel again to the Twin Cities. And we wholeheartedly recommend it to others.

This property was great for our needs! We were in town visiting family and this property was about a 10 minute drive from them. It was well suited for all ages! We had kids from 1 to 14 with us. Everything was clean, plenty of sleeping space and room to hangout. The kids enjoyed seeing the wild turkeys throughout our stay as well. Will stay again for sure!

Beds were comfortable and home was clean. The back yard would have been fun to use in the summer or fall. The listing did not mention the stairs which were a problem for my elderly mother. After we reserved the verbo, the host did tell us about the stairs. We would definitely stay again if my mom were not going to be there.

My large family party stayed in this property from the west coast for our cousins wedding. Check in was super easy. The location and neighborhood was perfect since it was just right off the highway. Walking into the home, everything looked clean and accurate to the pictures provided. Very quickly we were reminded that this was an old home that was just renovated. The floors are VERY squeaky. In the middle of the night we could be woken up anytime someone was walking to the bathroom. The room doors are also loud when having to open or close them. Part of the kitchen island table was also lifting. Shower water pressure is low. We didn’t utilize the backyard, but it is large and spacious. Sometimes we would have a view of visiting turkeys, which was fun for our little one to see. There was plenty of space for everyone to sleep. I will say the beds, although large, were rock hard. The best mattresses were the downstairs couch with pull out bed. Check out was also fairly easy and manageable. All in all, it was a good stay. It was a large clean place to stay that fit us all. We just had to deal with the extremely loud squeaky floor boards.

The location is ideal, as it is a quiet and safe neighborhood. Attractive, affordable, and the perfect setting for a fun AND relaxing weekend away. We highly recommend booking this one!!

Such a cozy house with all of the amenities. 3 king sized beds and giant tvs. A fully equipped kitchen and easy peasy arrival and departure instructions. Thanks for a great, relaxing stay!

Had a wonderful stay at the Tonka House. Place was just as advertised and beautiful as the pictures show. Plenty of space, beautiful kitchen and living room area as well as spacious bedrooms and comfortable beds. Cecilia communicates very well and the check in/check out process was extremely simple and easy. Highly recommend!

We were in Minneapolis for a family wedding and my grandkids and adult children needed a house that had enough room for everyone and a big, well-equiped kitchen to feed them. This house was perfect. Beautiful and roomy as pictured. Deck and outdoor grill for outside meals. When you have a toddler and 3 year old grandkids, having enough room for them to play and nap was essential. Our host, Cecilia responded almost immediately to our questions and request. The best host I've experienced, and I've stayed at VRBO's not only in the US, but in other countries too.

Perfect home for our Thanksgiving trip visiting family. With two little kids, the house was perfectly laid out to keep kids within eye range and safe from stairs. Home was very clean, kitchen fully stocked with everything we needed, very comfortable beds. Hosts highly responsive. Would stay again!

We loved staying at this property for our four day trip to Minneapolis! We were lucky to find this house that is located near so many great things Minneapolis has to offer, but also tucked away in a quiet neighborhood! And as everyone else has commented, yes, the beds are actually that comfortable! We loved having a fire in the backyard, being able to cook and eat a meal in a functioning kitchen was a gift! Plenty of room for a family of four, will definitely stay again when we make it back to the area!

Our family has a wonderful time staying at this house for a week. The location is incredible and the host was easy to communicate with. The cleanliness of the house could have been a little better but otherwise it’s the perfect place to stay.

My large family party stayed in this property from the west coast for our cousins wedding. Check in was super easy. The location and neighborhood was perfect since it was just right off the highway. Walking into the home, everything looked clean and accurate to the pictures provided. Very quickly we were reminded that this was an old home that was just renovated. The floors are VERY squeaky. In the middle of the night we could be woken up anytime someone was walking to the bathroom. The room doors are also loud when having to open or close them. Part of the kitchen island table was also lifting. Shower water pressure is low. We didn’t utilize the backyard, but it is large and spacious. Sometimes we would have a view of visiting turkeys, which was fun for our little one to see. There was plenty of space for everyone to sleep. I will say the beds, although large, were rock hard. The best mattresses were the downstairs couch with pull out bed. Check out was also fairly easy and manageable. All in all, it was a good stay. It was a large clean place to stay that fit us all. We just had to deal with the extremely loud squeaky floor boards.

We stayed for a family weekend get-together and enjoyed the space (enough separate rooms for every couple; bonus that all the rooms have king beds!!), the accommodations, and the proximity of the home to things to do in the cities. The location is ideal, as it is a quiet and safe neighborhood. Attractive, affordable, and the perfect setting for a fun AND relaxing weekend away. We highly recommend booking this one!!

This was the perfect house for our week long stay (wife and daughter) in the Minneapolis area. The house was beautifully renovated and it had all the necessities. The location was awesome! Quiet neighborhood but was super convenient in getting all over the suburbs and city. I would definitely stay here again if the need arises.

We were looking for a place to stay that was close to lots of things near the cities but didn’t feel like we’re were in the heart of the city. What a great place! Would 10 out of 10 stay there again and it is just like the pictures showed! Even with lots of snow on the ground we still loved the place!

It was a pleasure to stay in such a beautifully furnished, clean, and updated home. It is well-designed for both cooking and conversation. The beds are comfortable, and we appreciated the attention to quality bedding as well. The neighborhood is quiet, and we were even treated to a parade of wild turkeys in the back yard. We would be happy to stay there again, should we travel again to the Twin Cities. And we wholeheartedly recommend it to others.

Great little house with lots of sleeping options. Unfortunately it was raining so we could only make limited use of the huge backyard. But the fire pit was lovely and even got to play a little basketball.

If we could give this property 10 stars we would. We hosted a small Team meeting, this property offered a great space for a very comfortable and productive meeting - the huge TV made a great computer screen! We were able to bake up a lasagna and eat on the back deck and set up a small studio in the basement for Team photos and headshots. And overnight stay for a few "way" out of the area Team members. The way the world works has changed so much, for this "office" from home Team, this was a beyond perfect alternative to a Board room for our Annual Planning Day... it was everything we needed it to be for an exceptionally productive, bonding and inspiring day!! You have been the perfect hosts....when we plan for next years meeting, I am guessing this option will be on the top of the Teams list. The basement suite far exceeded expectations! Three King size beds, plus more... and the two bathrooms were impeccably clean! A few more coffee mugs would be very helpful, there were only 3. Thank you again!! It was great to get up and go in the morning not worrying about garbage or linens too! Truly a wonderful stay!!

Wow what a gem of a property!!There were 7 of us and the house was perfect for our gathering. Could easily have had the max 10 with plenty of room. The back deck, kitchen and living area as well as basement made for lots of socializing space. Everything was labeled and super clean. Kitchen had everything you’d need. Literally one of the best VRBOs we’ve ever stayed at and strongly recommend
