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.
Other things to note: A game table, board games, puzzles, coloring books, lap blankets, etc., are available for your use.
PARK PLACE COTTAGE WELCOME BOOK will have house rules, as well as maps and a seasonal section for golf courses, wineries, restaurants, and other recreational options. Enjoy your stay!

About the host
Hosted by Tim Kraft
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.
