We loved our time at Pat and Bruce's beautiful lakefront home. The weather was a bit rainy during our visit, but that gave us extra time to hang out in the large basement and play pingo pong and other fun family games. The home is very spacious but still cozy--we loved all the large windows and reading nooks. My husband also appreciated the dedicated workspace as a temporary office. Pat and Bruce's neighborhood is beautiful and very convenient to the airport, Mall of America, and a few nearby state parks. We especially enjoyed the chance to explore a new area during fall apple picking season. Pat and Bruce were generous and experienced hosts with clear and concise communication. We look forward to hosting them and highly recommend them as swap partners! -
There aren't enough superlatives to describe our memorable stay at Pat and Bruce's beautiful lakeside home! Their hospitality far exceeded expectations, including the use of their boats and a firepit (stocked with wood) for us to enjoy in the evening. Their home (close to Minneapolis and shopping conveniences) is situated on a peaceful, private cove abundant with bird life, mature trees, and sunset views. We had only five days to enjoy this stay between work commitments, but this felt like a true getaway that we hope to arrange again next year! We look forward to hosting Pat and Bruce at our home in Spain sometime soon and to continuing this new friendship. With gratitude, Michele and Larry
