St. Paul neighborhood
"Great location, nice neighborhood and neighbors, close to Excel Energy Center. Well kept and clean. Very functional."

"Our family of 6 enjoyed this home, since it was close to family and had enough beds for everybody. I appreciated how clean everything was. Be advised that communication and pertinent info will be via the host's guest portal, not the Airbnb app. Will definitely consider this place again for future family events in the Twin Cities."

Visit to see new baby
"This home was in a comfortable and quiet neighborhood just blocks from our son’s home. We were able to walk to visit our new grandchild and return to a well appointed multi bedroom VRBO for the evenings. The home was well equipped in all area from Kitchen to bathrooms to bedrooms . "
- Rick
"The Highland Hideaway is a cozy, older home in a sweet neighborhood. I loved walking the quiet streets up to Spyhouse Coffee every morning and admiring the cute houses along the way. The kids LOVED the upstairs Harry Potter-themed bunk room. Every needed amenity was provided with plenty of thoughtful extras. This is not a luxury rental, but it suited our group exceedingly well and is in a convenient, central location to get around the Twin Cities."

Thumbs up
"A beautiful home thank you!"
- Ceara
Great spot
"Convenient, very quiet, clean. Issues were minor such as recliner lever missing and hair dryer not blowing warm air. Being tall and having bad knees, tough to stand up off furniture and toilet. Common problem across most rentals. My wife loved this place and would offer to pay for taller toilet so she could come back again."
- TOM D.
"Highland Hideaway is top shelf! The home is very clean and the amenities are abundant! The space is at once cozy and spacious! Room for the whole family to play and relax. The Minnestay staff is so friendly and very responsive and helpful! We definitely will stay at the Highland again!"
