About this property

Magical Nest Hideaway

We are located about 1-1.5 miles west of Mayo Clinic. You'll find us located in a beautiful, quiet and secluded neighborhood. We have a private entrance, a staircase and path to your lovely hideaway. The wooded area behind our home has lots of wildlife. It is not uncommon to see deer in the backyard, as many as six at one time! Sometimes a group of turkeys will feed under our deck, you can watch them just outside the windows of your studio apartment. We are often told of how beautiful and peaceful it is here. There is a covered patio and furniture to relax on in the evenings.

Very nice! Would definitely stay again. Would have liked covered garbage container and extra garbage bags . Toaster and small fry pan and a scissors as well as a notepad and pen would have been nice. Also, a small dish rack and another dish towel Should notify guests about outside stairs that don’t have a railing. All of these are minor details but might help the next tenant. Overall

Prior to arrival, the host sent us a weather report and update due to inclement weather which was incredibly thoughtful! Upon arrival the host had soft music playing with a warm cozy atmosphere. Our stay of 6 days was impressive to say the least! Fully furnished, even offering clean towels when needed. BY FAR a better stay than any hotel! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS LOCATION!!!!!

The hosts pleasant greetings. Clear instructions. The only challenge was the steps leading to and from the door. A railing would have made it perfection. The wildlife was wild. Turkeys and Deer , super quiet and wooded yard all added up to greatness!
