Accessibility and Availability

Neighborhood

Enjoy afternoons in the summer, walking around the lake, listening to live evening concerts, kayaking or canoeing with friends. Enjoy a quick walk to amazing restaurants such as: Martina Tilia Naviyas Thai Brasserie Harriet Brasserie Pizza Rosalia Zumbro Cafe Great Harvest Bread Co Jone’s Coffee Coffee & Tea Ltd Sebastian Joe’s Enjoy the endless walking and biking trails connecting you to the chain of lakes, Minnehaha trail, or even the green line. Sometime around mid-Spring, the lake begins to thaw, the residents trade in their boots for flip-flops, and Linden Hills transforms into a full-blown resort town. From nightly concerts and movies at the Bandshell, to fishing, canoeing, paddle boarding, and kayaking in the lake, to building sand castles at the beach. And then before you know it, Autumn's here decorating Lake Harriet with it is brilliant wreath of colors, crisp air, and enjoyable walks. A few snowflakes later, winter has arrived lining the streets with string lights, paving the sledding hill at William Berry Park for maximum thrills, and sturdy-ing up the frozen lake for the thousands (20k+) of visitors drawn to the Art Shanty Project and Lake Harriet Kite Festival. Additionally, this neighborhood is gastronomically-blessed. A haven for nationally-recognized chefs like Steven Brown and Daniel Del Prado, our little village is simply teeming with culinary talent.

We absolutely loved our stay. The neighborhood was peaceful and charming. We felt tucked away in our own little bubble but still just steps from amazing restaurants, cozy coffee spots, book stores, big shopping, and beautiful walking paths around Lake Harriet. As a family of three, it was the perfect setup. Our daughter loved having her own “tween” room—just enough space for independence but close enough for late-night hangs and snuggles. And the king bed? It felt just like home. Cozy, quiet, and full of thoughtful touches. This was a 5-star stay for us from start to finish. We’d absolutely come back!
