The Place Between The Lakes: Inspired & Peaceful | Apartment in Minneapolis

You're surrounded by beauty, both inside and out of this charming and immaculate main floor 1930s duplex with quality and inspired decor. Steps from Cedar Lake Beach, just a few blocks from Bde Mka Ska and Lake of The Isles. Prepare a gourmet meal in the updated and fully appointed kitchen. Walk out the french doors onto the custom cedar deck. Take in the mid-day sun, grill on the Traeger, or spend your evenings under the lights on the sectional sofa or the outdoor dining table.
THE SPACE:
The Place Between The Lakes is the main floor unit in a 1939 built up/down duplex, with two private entrances, 1 space of garage parking (two can be arranged by special request for a fee) in the detached garage, and full access to the backyard which may be shared by the hosts who live in the upper unit. The backyard has a custom cedar deck, with L-shaped sectional sofa, two rattan chairs string lights as well as a dining table with 8 chairs, There is a clean and spacious shared laundry room in the basement with washer/dryer as well as iron and ironing board.
We've poured our hearts into this home to share it with you and truly hope you'll find a sense of calm here.
GUEST ACCESS:
The rental unit is the entire main floor and our guests will have full access to the backyard, deck, outdoor dining area, one garage stall and laundry room in basement.
We, the hosts, will need access to the backyard to come and go and to maintain the yard, but guests will have priority access to enjoying the space. The garage and laundry are common spaces as well. We try to limit our laundry so it’s available to our guests, but there may occasionally be times the laundry is in use :)
HOST’S INTERACTION WITH GUESTS:
We live in the upper level unit and while we respect your privacy completely, and offer self check-in, we do try our best to be available for anything you might need! We try very hard to be quiet and invisible, but you will likely hear us come and go, and may see us watering plants or maintaining the home.
OTHER DETAILS TO NOTE:
The Twin Cities is a growing city that invests in infrastructure for residents and visitors. Naturally this leads to construction projects. Currently, the Southwest Light Rail line is being constructed at the end of the block and a few hundred feet from this home. The work has always been performed during normal business hours and we have never found the noise level to be particularly disruptive and have continued to use our backyard and deck without hesitation.
Alongside the in-progress light rail track is an active train track, which is used periodically. The most we’ve ever heard it has been three times in a day. A horn sounds a block away, and you can hear the train chugging along as it passes, but again, we don’t find this to affect our lifestyle at all.
This home is the main floor unit and we live in the upper level unit. While a peaceful stay is a priority to us, you will likely hear some footsteps and creaking of the floors above.
NEIGHBORHOOD:
The Cedar-Isles-Dean neighborhood is, dare we say, one of the best neighborhoods in all of the twin cities and when you stay at The Place Between The Lakes you are truly surrounded by three of the best lakes in all the Twin Cities; Cedar Lake (1 block to the beach), Lake of the Isles (1/2 mile) and of course, Bde Mka Ska (1/2 mile to the beach).
Rent a canoe, kayak or paddle board, take a ride, walk or run around the lakes, or enjoy a day at the beach!
But it’s not just the lakes that make this area great, you are also a few hundred feet from Park Siding Park; a precious and tucked-away park space with a playground that is also great for gatherings (if the backyard isn’t big enough).
Many people don’t know that Minneapolis is one of the most bike-friendly cities in the country with exceptional dedication to that infrastructure. Two blocks away you have access to the Midtown Greenway, a bike trail that will take you clear across south Minneapolis and links up with many trails around the metro.
If you’re looking for a bite to eat, once again, you’re in one of the best areas in the city! Walk or bike 1/2 mile to Calhoun Commons and pick up groceries at Whole Foods, or swing by one of many excellent spots, like an amazing bakery called Rustica, Urban Eatery, Taberna, Wakame Sushi, Crisp & Green, Seed Cafe (V), Punch Pizza, Falafel King, Chipotle, Noodles and Company, & Caribou Coffee.
It doesn’t stop there either. You’re just one mile from the heart of Uptown, which is one of the most happenin’ spots in Minneapolis! Take the greenway or hop in an Uber and you’re surrounded by hip restaurants, coffee shops and social hot spots.
GETTING AROUND:
When you stay at The Place Between The Lakes you’ll have one dedicated parking spot in the garage(a second spot can be arranged for an additional fee) and there is free street parking as well in front of the home.
Uber and Lyft both serve the area and there are bus stops within 1/2 mile, as well as app-based bike and scooter rentals that are really slick for casual exploring!
You’re also 1/2 mile to several staples like Whole Foods, Walgreens, a liquor store, restaurants, yoga, an Alina urgent care facility and Barnes and Noble, so some folks may skip a vehicle entirely.
Following a big snow storm, Minneapolis will sometimes “declare a snow emergency,” which creates rules about which side of the street you can park on. Access to the garage parking eliminates the need to bother with it, but if you have more than one vehicle, you’ll have to be aware of this (we will do our best to notify you as well).
