Just what we needed

This was just what our family needed for the weekend of our daughter's wedding. A lovely home! We enjoyed our stay in Red Wing and want to go back when we have more time to explore the town. Would definitely stay here again.

Red Wing Girls weekend

My card, playing group of friends, and I spent the weekend at the Franklin cottage, it was wonderful. We’ve been doing a fall shopping adventure for the past 25+ years. The cottage was clean, very quaint, and easy location to the downtown shops and restaurants. Ron, the property manager was very easy to deal with and very quick to get back to us with one of our concerns. I would recommend this house for anyone wanting to explore the Redwing Minnesota area.

A Red Wing gem

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Franklin Cottage. The location is great—walking distance to Main Street shops and restaurant. The home itself was spacious and comfortable. We had no want of anything. The kitchen is amply supplied—probably the best of any rental at which I’ve stayed. The beds were comfortable. The shower in the primary bedroom had great water pressure and heated up quickly. The whole place was clean and inviting. I would definitely stay here again.

Fabulous home

The house was beautiful, extremely clean, furnished beautifully, loved the kitchen , actually all rooms were really nice. It was just the two of us but it would be great for a large family. Nice backyard that we grilled in and all the extra treats was such a nice touch. Tracy always got back to us immediately if we had questions. Great house also for a dog which is why we first rented this big house but unfortunately ours passed away before we could bring him. Very secluded home, very quiet and close to downtown Redwing. Our son lives in Redwing so plan on renting this home again. Highly recommend this home for your stay. Loved having my coffee in the sunroom each morning. 😊
