There are a number of activities in the area to keep you entertained such as golfing, spas, kayaking, boating (rentals), cave tours, winery & brewery tours, historical tours, bike/hiking trails, segway tours and paddle boat cruises.

Our home has 6 bedrooms with 5 that are in the home and 1 is in the bonus room above the garage. This is a late 1800's home restored in 2005 with a modern flare. Some of the house has original flooring where other areas are newer. This home is full of room with a large kitchen and family room. The home is on a quiet corner lot and little traffic.

The Bonus room (6th bedroom) is optional and is included booking 12 + adult guests. There is an additional fee for this room and we require a minimum of two adults to occupy this space. We will offer this room under 12 guests with an additional fee if you want the extra bed space. This room is seasonal from April - Oct and not available during the winter months. This space is above the detached garage with no bathroom. but very close walk to the home.

You will find our home to be very inviting and we take pride in how exceptionally clean we keep the home. As you will notice each room will have its own flair.

Note....
We have parking for up to 6 vehicles in our driveway and no off street parking is allowed per city ordinance.
We are also not allowed Events so this means no more than 16 people on the property including overnight guests at any given time! Our home is mainly for overnight guests

Our family of 7 loved this home. Spacious and welcoming in a lovely neighborhood with views of the river. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen and enjoyed breakfast on the enclosed porch. Every evening we enjoyed after dinner walks through the neighborhood.

We enjoyed this large house with all the amenities. Large yard for the kids to play and we even carved pumpkins. There was plenty of room for our group of 6 adults and 3 kids. We enjoyed walking around the quaint neighborhood and seeing the Halloween displays

Great home!

We had a great time staying at this home in Stillwater. The bedrooms and bathrooms were great, but the beat part was certainly the common areas where we could all gather. Large kitchen with access to cooking/baking supplies and family room space with large couch! Thanks for letting us stay at your home!

Great home!

Came to town with 11 friends for a much needed Dads golf trip getaway. The house is super clean and slept all of us (all in mid 30s) very comfortably. Kirk and Barb were very responsive on the VRBO app and were available for any questions I had by cell/text. We enjoyed it so much we may be coming back next year!

About the host

Hosted by Barbra and Kirk Ackerman

Host profile image
We are married with grown children so we call that 'empty nested'. We love the St Croix River, Stillwater and general area. We enjoy boating and usually stay on our boat most of the warm weather season so our house is vacant and available at least 6 months out of the year. We decided to rent out vs. sell until we decide what we would like to do next. It is a big house for just the two of us so we decided to try VRBO since it is a nationally known site and introduces our home to more parties.

Why they chose this property

Quiet neighborhood, beautiful home and views.
Our home is known to be very clean and you will
have all the comforts of knowing this at check in.
The home will be all ready for your stay.
We love our location and Stillwater area is home to us.

What makes this property unique

The views of the St Croix, location and peaceful neighborhood.
Our home has been utilized by many groups but most often times families of wedding parties. Our home allows families to be together with having the comforts of home.
We will be happy to assist with any planning during your stay and have a good list of restaurant recommendations. We would be happy to make any or all reservations needed!
