Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Rochester

Loud construction noise during this trip, since neighboring house is getting sided, but that’s just the luck of life. This is a great spot – our favorite whenever we come back to Rochester!

We were staying in Rochester for a wedding and lived at the Kottage for three nights. If you have up to 5 people in your party, it's a great space. Wonderful kitchen with everything you need. Beds are comfortable. Bathroom is clean and has a great shower. Very quiet and peaceful. If we ever find ourselves returning to Rochester (we're in Tennessee), we will definitely look into reserving this space again. Well worth the investment!

Fantastic home in Rochester, very clean, well furnished interior that felt like a home and not just a rental, well stocked kitchen, and had extras that made the stay easier with a toddler including a pack and play and kid friendly, easy to clean toys! Highly recommend to others looking for a comfortable and peaceful stay.

This is an excellent house. Walking around the pond is very nice as well as great walks through the neighborhood. The house has lots of nice features and amenities. It is an easy drive to Mayo. Highly recommend staying with Joy.

For an extended stay, this home fits the bill. It is in a very handy location with restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations, etc., only a few blocks away. The home is new & in a new area, where the properties are nice , very well maintained & managed. Allison, our coordinator did a very good job of answering our questions any time we called her . If available, we would definitely stay there again should we ever need an extended stay in Rochester.

This house was perfect and Hana was so kind and helpful. We were traveling with our 14 month old and everything we could have needed was provided. It was such a nice place to go to after long days. We'll plan to stay here again when we have Mayo appointments.

The cottage and surrounding property is absolutely beautiful. The hosts have wonderful taste and provided tons of thoughtful amenities and homey touches. I was especially grateful for the well-stocked kitchen, the ample cooking supplies, lots of towels, blankets and all the relaxing and fun outdoor spaces. It’s so private and peaceful and yet only 5-10 minutes to town. We were so impressed! Wonderful hosts and a dreamy getaway.

Great location and a charming home. Freshly baked cookies and other snacks waiting for us. It suited us perfectly.

Our stay was exactly what we needed while in town for a lacrosse tournament. Location was convenient for shopping. Cozy, yet space for everyone (family of 4). Heated bathroom floor was a treat when stepping out of the shower. Towels were fluffy and soft. Deck outside was great for relaxing. Kitchen was well supplied with dishes, pans, and utensils. For me it's all the little things that made our stay so great. Thank you!

We loved this little apartment! Felt like home and great place to just relax after all the appointments and testings we had to do at Mayo. Would 100% rent this place again in the future.

Awesome place! We stayed for almost two weeks while a family member was at Saint Mary’s. It was so close, and saved us the stress and money of parking daily at the hospital. Britt was very responsive when I had a question, and provided clear instructions for checkin/out. Great experience, and would definitely stay again!

Hema was a fantastic host. She was extremely responsive and super easy to deal with! The place was just what we needed. Simple, clean, efficient. Everything we needed for our extended stay. Thank you!

I enjoyed my stay in Rochester ! Great cozy place for few days or weeks. Has everything you need. Location is just perfect in front of Saint Marys Building. I would definitely come back here

Highly recommend this space and host. Clean and well organized upon arrival. Clear and detailed instructions for everything, along with local recommendations. The backyard is beautiful and we saw so much wildlife during our stay. Birds, otters, woodchucks, deer and more. Walking distance to quarry hill park which is lovely. There is a bus stop about a block down the road so it was easy to get around even when we didn't have our car for a couple days. The host was incredibly quick to respond and very kind.

During our 1-week stay, we appreciated the closet space, clean covers, having a washer/dryer to use, a big table, and comfy recliners. Wi-Fi was fast and the TV was really nice. Had the feel of like a nice and cozy finished basement. Some things to know: The bathroom was a tight fit and the shower liner doesn't seem as clean. Also, some of the towels are stained, but there are some cleaner ones and there's bleach in the laundry room if you want to wash them. Plus, I recommend bringing a towel or sponge to use for dishes. Overall, we had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay. We took a long walk through the city and could easily walk to Aldi or Hy-Vee for stuff. John responded to our needs as soon as he could (i.e. paper towels and tissue). Would definitely stay here again. Hopefully, it'll be available on our next visit to Rochester :))

Emily was an amazing host! Checked in periodically to make sure I had everything I needed.

We had a lovely 5 week stay at Satharina and Amir‘s property. The condo is just as described. Clean and easy to find and access. We were comfortably warm during the coldest season of the year. The showers had excellent water pressure and the kitchen had everything we needed. The WiFi was very fast. The location is close to Mayo - a six minute drive - and close to all the shops that one might need. We also found some great restaurants in Rochester. The hosts were very friendly and responsive. We would highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again.

It was super clean and very nice! The view was amazing to wake up to and watch the sunset! Wonderful breeze every morning that we woke up! Their bedding is super comfortable and clean! Wonderful bathroom! Overall would very much recommend for a quiet, peaceful getaway! Wonderful and would definitely book again soon!

Great stay! Everything was clean and the building was very quiet. Wabasha and the surrounding area was really fun to explore also!

We had a wonderful stay! The rental was clean, beautifully decorated, and spacious. We especially loved the rooftop area — a perfect place to relax and enjoy the view after a day out. The location is very walkable with plenty of restaurants nearby, plus family-friendly attractions like the interactive fountain, Hok-Si-La Park, and more just a short walk or drive away. A great home base for exploring Lake City and the surrounding area!

Host was extremely helpful, very attentive to how my stay was going. Highly recommended!

We had a great stay with Jackie. We had easy walk to mayo clinic as well as many wonderful shops and restaurants. I would definitely recommend this place and anyone staying here to check out the Old Rooster antique shop as well as Midwest vintage toys and the arcade all of which are basically right across the street.

Everything was great, just what we needed for our stay at Mayo

I stayed here for a week while at Mayo Clinic. It was a wonderful place to rest and recover. The beds are very comfortable, the place felt modern, and it was way more convenient than a hotel room. Had everything I needed for the stay. It is downtown, so there are some downtown noises - the train, traffic, etc but that didn’t bother me at all, I knew this going into the stay. Also, stairs to get to the unit, again not a problem for me. Perfect place, will be back.
