Excellent Place and Great Hospitality
This apartment was the perfect place to accommodate our family of six, and Amber included all kinds of extras - treats and necessary items. We were greeted on our arrival with a basket of goodies, and the ambiance of Christmas music and lights throughout the place. With four boys, ages 11-17, we were very pleased and relieved to find packages of toothbrushes and toothpaste (among all else that was provided) when we realized they forgot to pack their own. This was upon our arrival after 10:00p.m., when no other options were available. From the excellent communications to the thoughtfulness of our hosts, we were completely satisfied with our experience. We highly recommend this apartment for anyone needing a place to stay in the CoonRapids area!

Great Location
This downtown loft was in a great location to several little towns where we went antique shopping. Host went out of her way by brining up a recliner to amend the daybed seating to make it more comfortable. Very quiet at night. Beautiful area to enjoy the rolling hills and sunsets.

About the host

Host profile image
Hi! My name is Amber and I was born and raised in Coon Rapids. My dad was even mayor! Twice! After 6 years away, I chose to bring my 3 boys back *home*. I am primarily a stay at home momma to my 5 year old. I also have 18 & 20 year old boys, but they only need me when they need clean clothes or food! HAHA I’m also boudoir photographer, I DJ weddings or big events once in a while and can even throw a wild karaoke party. I LOVE Coon Rapids, so when I chose to get this apartment for my photography studio, I thought it would be great to share it on VRBO when I don’t have any scheduled photo shoots!

Why they chose this property

Downtown Coon Rapids is the heart of our little town. You’ll find plenty of shopping and dining options. When it’s HOT outside, we LOVE going to our amazing aquatic center then stopping to get our favorite dairy free, gluten free, sugar free & kosher soft serve ice cream from Nature Amill. I’m not sure what sorcery is used to make it (Carrie makes the soft serve mix HOMEMADE!) but it’s DELISH! There’s also a ton of walking or biking trails around Coon Rapids! When there’s snow on the ground, there are some AWESOME sledding hills by the high school! When it’s beautiful outside, there are miles and miles of walking and biking trails around Coon Rapids.
