The Dollar House - Between the Lakes!

This is a fully renovated single family home which is setup for you to have a very nice place to stay while in the area. The dollar house was a tired little place that hadn’t been lived in for over a decade! It’s fully renovated into something very special. A great place to stay and well equipped. It's private, on a safe street, close to parks and both lakes. If Albert Lea has nicer short term accommodations, we need to see it to believe it. This unit is an exceptional value!

This is a very nice property. We felt like we were at home. It was very easy to get to and was very convenient to be able to get where we wanted to go. We would definitely recommend staying here for a nice quiet getaway. We would book again. Thank you.

Quiet &Small House was just the right ticket!
I had a booth at the Steele County Fair and I needed a quiet house to make my goods to bring... It was exactly what I wanted and the description was completely accurate. It was a pleasure doing business with Luke and I will definitely rent his home again next year if available. Beth

Felt right at home
This house is very clean and well equipped. It is located in a quiet and friendly neighborhood. The bed was very comfortable, so that was a bonus! We enjoyed eating at The Elbow Room, which is just a couple of minutes away. I will definitely stay here again.

Great Sister Getaway
We felt tucked away in a quiet neighborhood & it was perfect to just “be” and catch up with each other! I had a couple things to talk to the owner about and he was receptive and responsive- what more can you ask for?! We look forward to staying there again and enjoy hikes and the lake in Albert Lea!

Relaxing stay.
Very Organized and cozy with everything labeled. And everything you would need. Big farm table for playing games and eating. The bedroom was very relaxing, the bed was very comfortable. The only thing I would add is a TV in the bedroom. But I would stay here again.

Cozy house and well appointed!
We had a great stay in this darling house. A short walk to the lake and easy drive to local restaurants. Great for our family of 4 (kids shared the pull-out couch bed). I would say it comfortably sleeps 4 (2 to a bed). Kitchen is great, well organized. Would recommend for a couple or family of 4.
