Testimonials

“We loved the home in Woodbury and several people commented that they would like to make this an annual event. I particularly liked the fact that the home was so fully stocked with every imaginable utensil and appliance that we could want. That was especially helpful as most of us flew in – the airport at Minneapolis was convenient and it was easy to find your place.”

LAKE PHALEN PLACE – “We had a wonderful experience with this rental. The home was very inviting the moment we stepped into the porch! Loved the idea of taking your outside shoes off before you enter the home. The home was very spacious with a huge kitchen area. We especially took advantage of walking around Lake Phalen everyday. It has a beach and splash pad for those to enjoy. You need to walk there or just a short drive to the other side of the lake. You won’t be disappointed in renting this home!”

“We had our family vacation at this rental property – everyone had their own bed, it was very quiet, house was very clean, and businesses, restaurants were close by. The kids really enjoyed the bike trail accessible from the back yard. I would highly recommend this rental property.”

“We rented this home for a reunion with another family that we hadn’t seen for almost a year. With seven bedrooms and several different living rooms, we had plenty of room to accommodate everyone. The descriptions in the listing are accurate and the property is well maintained. The owner provides good customer service. We would definitely use this property again. The trails around the lake are a wonderful bonus and the kids, of course, loved having a pool available for their use! Woodbury is a lovely community and you can get most anything you need not going very far at all from the house. The home is in a residential area with close neighbors on either side. It is a very comfortable home, yet you are close enough to many attractions that you feel you have the best of both worlds. We appreciated the kitchen and the gas grill, as we cooked all of our meals, except for the day we went to the Como Zoo and ate lunch there. The Como Zoo is a nice, but small zoo. The amusement park was a nice addition and was a big hit with the kids after walking looking at the animals. All in all, we were very pleased with our first experience with a vacation rental. The beds were very comfortable, with plenty of linens and blankets, and the shower pressure was great, too. This was much better than a hotel for about the same money per night for our two families.”

“This property was wonderful and accommodated our group of eight women beautifully. The house was very clean, the kitchen fully stocked with everything we needed to bake and cook our own meals while we were there, and the walking/running path around the lake was perfect for a little exercise early in the morning. We had people coming in from different states and wanted to have a home rather than a hotel to stay in so we would have room to sit and talk – and laugh as loud as we wanted into the evening hours. We would definitely stay at Wedgewood Manor again!”

“We spent five nights in the [Colby Lake Place] over Thanksgiving 2010 and had a wonderful time. There was plenty of room for the ten of us – 6 adults and four children. We loved the walking path, even tho it was a bit cold. The setting was like a retreat, overlooking a wooded yard and beautiful lake. The beds were comfortable and we had a great time making meals in the kitchen, watching movies, playing in the snow and finding time to be together. We are from three different states and have tried staying in the same hotel and there is NO comparison. This was a wonderful solution for all of us. We highly recommend it.”

LAKE PHALEN PLACE – “A nice place to stay. The house provides lots of room for a family. Location was also nice. A good choice for our family with lots of space. We enjoyed the outdoor patio area and walking the trails by the lake. A quiet neighborhood allowing us to sleep well. Bill was very prompt to fix a shower head in the master bedroom.”

“We had a wonderful time at your beautiful house on our girls get-a-way. The place was extremely clean and well kept. We found all the cooking utensils we needed in order to satisfy and serve 10 women!! The rest of the house had plenty of room for relaxing and privacy if necessary. The walking trail was a safe and pleasant addition to our weekend. We appreciate your flexibility and willingness to accommodate our large group on short notice. We will be back, you can count on it.”
