Amazing Host, Great Home
Rupinder was a great host for our friends trip to Minneapolis. He was communicative, friendly and helpful with recommendations in the area. The home is in a quiet neighborhood with convenient access to all of Minneapolis and the lake. Easily accommodated 8 adults without having to share beds. Would recommend and will look at the house again if we are ever back in town.

Best VRBO yet!
Wow, this home is fabulous. We did a work event here with 7 team members and there was plenty of room for everyone to have their own room. The host is an amazing Indian fusion chef and made us a delicious meal. The house was spotless and comfortable, and Rupinder went out of his way to make us feel spoiled (music, a welcome treat to greet us, And easy communication when we had questions). 10/10!

Absolutely perfect
We spent a week in this amazing property with our family (including kids ages 1-7), our nanny and then friends who came and went with their teenage kids. It was a PERFECT place to spend an extended period with space for privacy (our nanny loved the top floor studio!) and also plenty of space to commune. It had everything we needed from high-chair to wine glasses to plenty of linens to kitchen stuff to cook. The house itself was GORGEOUS both in terms of its bones (beautiful hardwood, elegant staircases, built-ins, high quality and not at all loud HVAC) and also how it was decorated. And there was a porch swing! Where the kids loved to sit and read books and watch thunderstorms roll in. Rupinder was fabulous - above and beyond. When our grocery delivery came earlier than expected he was there to receive it and put it in the fridge (it was 90 degrees out!). He left a gorgeous and delicious welcome plate and answered my random questions via text quickly and even came over to help when I couldn't get the washer worker (doh! user error! he was so gracious with my silliness). We hope to make this an annual visit as we loved the house and neighborhood and Rupinder's attention to detail and having a top-notch experience. Next time we hope to take advantage of his chef skills!

Great Place for a Larger Group
This was a great place in an awesome neighborhood. The host was amazing. There was a bottle of wine, some cheeses, crackers, grapes and some cookies waiting for us when we checked in. The house is comfortable, clean, well restored. The steam shower was incredible. Outside of having some more/better cooking utensils and knives (which is a small thing), this place was great. To top it all off, on the morning of our departure we had some amazing pastries dropped off to us from the bakery a few blocks away. HIGHLY recommend this house!

Nice home for a family
Stayed here with extended family including toddlers and grandchildren. Home was very comfortable and well appointed. Highchair and pack and play with mattress were provided. Great communication with property manager! Really appreciated the extra touches. Best part was the steam shower in the master suite. Would stay here again.

Bde Maka Ska House
The house was in a lovely established neighborhood only two blocks from Lake Bde Maka Ska. The location was ideal as it was in walking distance for our littles to the play area and beach on the lake. The house was large enough for our whole family to have their own spaces, with living areas and bedrooms so everyone could spread out. There were two dining areas adjacent to the kitchen so we all could have a seat at a table. The beds and pillows were comfortable, although the comforter in the main level bedroom was quite warm for summer. Rupinder was responsive and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would enjoy coming back again.

Excellent house with an excellent host in an excellent neighborhood
Rupinder's house was beautiful, excellently maintained, and wonderfully located. We stayed here during our wedding, with a large group of friends, many of whom were meeting each other and seeing Minneapolis for the first time. The location was a perfect introduction to Minneapolis—guests went for walks to the lake, nearby cafés, Uptown restaurants, and the Bakken museum. The quiet, beautiful neighborhood showed the residential side of Minneapolis. After a dinner Downtown, it was an easy bus ride back home. It was clear Rupinder isn't simply "maintaining" the house, but continually enhancing it. We appreciated little touches, like the recent furniture, thoughtfully chosen artwork, extra towels, ample dishes, and gardening. Perhaps most importantly, having five bathrooms kept everyone on time.

Best possible location for a Minneapolis stay. The house is great with loads of room and walking distance to great restaurants and shops. Nearby lakes with running trails a real plus.

Decent Place, great area
This home is located in a nice neighborhood close to a walking trail around a lake and also interesting homes in the neighborhood. The home was great for a family gathering for events we had scheduled in Minneapolis with the homes location near downtown. It is winter but for spring/summer the back deck/patio needs some attention. The house offering is not worth the value of the rental but when considering it's location that helps overcome the high cost. We were pleased with our decision and property manager Rupinder was great to work with.

Rupinder is the Host with the Most
I stayed here with some other couples for an extended weekend. The location is great and the house had plenty of accommodations for us and great spaces to hang out. Rupinder was easy to communicate with and very friendly. Unfortunately we did not do the chef and music experience, but i'm sure that would have also been a great time. The City is fantastic and we took full advantage of the easy-to-walk-to lake and Uptown from the house

Location and Comfort
My nonprofit organization selected this lovely house for our annual Board and Staff retreat. There weren't many homes available in the Twin Cities to accommodate our group size, and this house was perfect. Lots of space to spread out and each have our own rooms and wonderful common spaces like the kitchen, dining room and living room where we held our meetings. We enjoyed the house so much, we only went out to dinner once. We mostly shared meals in the beautiful, landscaped backyard. The location couldn't be beat. We walked around Lake Bde Maka Ska on breaks which was just a couple blocks walk away. Grocery stores were a two minute drive. Rupinder was such an excellent host, he left us a home made treat when we arrived and had left some beverages and snacks to start our visit off right! He was always available for questions, but we also had our privacy. We all slept well in the comfortable beds and nice linens. Everything we needed was provided - from towels and shampoos/soaps to all the stuff you would need in the kitchen. We had a productive meeting and a blast cooking and gathering together in this beautiful home. A gem in the Uptown area, I would highly recommend this home!

Restful, spacious, comfortable
This location is amazing, close to wonderful walking trails around the lakes and many great dining options. The house itself is exactly as advertised with many comfortable bedrooms, a beautiful patio, and a main level perfect for a group of friends to gather. Rupinder is very communicative before and during your stay so you know your in good hands if you need any extra support (our stay went off without a hitch!). We will be using this property again for future trips to the Twin Cities
