This place was so clean and comfortable. The house is basically right in town and walkable to everything. The beds were great and the big couch in the living room was our favorite place to have coffee and talk.

Perfectly located property within walking distance to everything in downtown Lanesboro. Food, shops, trails, tubing, kayaking, etc. Place was perfect for a family of 5 with 3 teens. Nicely updated and well thought out with smart tv’s in all rooms and charging ports everywhere you turn. Great stay and hosts!
