About this property

Park Place Cottage

Upon entering the gate you follow the brick path to the BBQ Patio & enter the house through the front porch. The kitchen is great for immediate access to unload your groceries & full bathroom if you need to refresh after your long journey. The dining room & Great Room with wood burning fireplace gives a cozy feeling that you will have during your entire stay. Inside the French doors you will find a bedroom with Double bed & designated office space. Off the dining room you will find the Sun Room with access to the huge deck. The backyard has a bonfire pit stocked with wood for your enjoyment. We ask that you follow the laws when burning restrictions are in effect.
The upper cottage level has a large full bathroom with access to the walk-in closet and master bedroom with a Queen bed. The second bedroom has a Queen bed with another designated office space. The 3rd bedroom has 3 Twin beds for the children... or singles that don't want to share. The loft area has a Futon with linens provided for up to 2 people. The sliding doors go out onto the Viewing Balcony. Bistro tables & chairs provide another vignette where you can sit and have coffee while taking in the beautiful private view.

Children are welcome here... 2 high chairs, Pack-n-Play, Arm's Reach Co-Sleeper Bassinette & Baby Gate available for your use on premises. The BBQ Patio area is fully fenced so children stay safe from the driveway or street.

Guests have complete & private access to 1700 sq. ft. on the main and upper levels of the cottage. The basement area is not currently available for your use.

This was the perfect place for our girls weekend getaway. There were four of us and everyone had their own comfortable room. All amenities we needed were included- including leftover Halloween candy! :) Everything was clean, the neighborhood was safe and quiet, and we would totally stay there again. It would be great for several families with kids- lots of puzzles, games and toys too!

Great spaces to relax in

Perfect space for our family and friends to hang out - around the dinner table, on the porch, deck and balcony. Easy check in, and quick and easy communication with Tim. We would definitely stay again. Thanks!

The location was perfect for showing our Iowa friends this part of MN. We went to White Bear, Como Park, Stillwater, Marine on the St. Croix, Taylor's Falls, and all the fun little towns in between. The house suited our needs and was well stocked. The only minor complaint is the downstairs bathroon shower/tub needs updating.

Family stay

We rented this property to visit family and the original date we booked my kids got really sick and the property owner was very kind and let us stay different dates as to not lose any money. The home is beautiful and very clean. Large bedrooms and plenty of space.

About the host

Hosted by Tim Kraft

Host profile image
My wife, Judy and I maintain the cottage and the property. She is the creative force behind the "cozy" cottage atmosphere you'll feel during your stay. We live about 1/2 mile away and are easily able to help you with any need at most times.

If you're looking for nightlife entertainment, you can find me most weekends playing in the Twin Cities area with the Midwest Music Hall of Fame band, "Free & Easy". We play locally quite often.

Why they chose this property

In bygone days, the description for this updated 100-year-old Cottage was, “It sits a block away from & high on the hill for panoramic views of White Bear Lake”. You can still get glimpses of the lake through the trees & modern houses that dot the landscape. There are still several small cottages from the days when Wildwood Amusement Park was the 'go to destination' from the big cities. Street Cars traveled from afar to bring families to this quaint little town.
