We enjoyed our stay at Gopher House! The host, Megan, was very responsive and welcoming. House was very clean, well appointed, and was a great location for us during our visit to Minneapolis. Loved the off street parking option, and proximity to the U of M and downtown.

Wow! The Minnesota Gopher-themed decor was cool! The whole house was very clean and ready for us to move in for 4 days. Location was perfect for us - we were in town for Minnesota Wild hockey game and Mall of America. The hosts were great in communicating back and forth when checking in and out. The property has a large garage converted into a fitness center with a game room/arcade upstairs and a sauna on the main level - the grandkids enjoyed these features a lot! If we choose to do this again, we will definitely book this house again! A
