About this property

Historic 1880s Home

  • Voted 2021 and 2023 Readers’ Choice Best Bed and Breakfast of the Valley by the Sun Country Messenger!

    Perfect for those who appreciate yesterday’s handiwork, this spacious 1880s home is truly one of a kind built by pioneering Dr. Combacker. Slow down and relish in yesteryear as you sip coffee in a front porch rocker, bird watch from the bay window, or take a long soak in the jetted tub.

    Loaded with more than the essentials, we offer a full kitchen, bbq equipment, and toiletries. Besides being close to outdoor recreation and downtown, you’ll find plenty to keep you entertained here from board games, puzzles, cards, and reading material to a big backyard with an outdoor fire pit.

    Wonderfully nestled in the St. Croix Valley, this home’s location will not disappoint. You’ll be a short distance from all that the Twin Cities has to offer, a brief walk away from beautiful downtown Osceola, and close enough to explore the great outdoors. Come spend a night away yet within arm’s reach of it all at Osceola’s most historic estate.

    Please note this is a duplex and there is potential for noise. We live in the adjacent unit and have two young children who like to do child things. We do our best to be respectful of our guests by keeping noise and activity at a minimum, and we give our guests first priority in shared outdoor spaces.

Great stay!

We stayed here for just one night as we were in town for a family wedding. The communication leading up to the stay with Allison was great, the check-in process easy, the home was clean and the beds comfortable. I would definitely stay here again if in the area.

Sisters birthday celebration

Dr. Comebacker 1880 house was the perfect base for our weekend. It has everything you need for a stay away from home and Allison is very responsive if you need anything. Osceola is a quaint little town withany cute shops within walking distance of the rental house. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Enjoy the place very historical. It could use a lamp in the living room by sofa for reading and shades on windows for privacy in evening. Beds were comfortable. A well supply kitchen with everything you need.

Perfect for us

We needed a three bedroom place for three adults so the house was perfect us. The beds were comfortable, the house was clean and the kitchen was stocked with every dish/utensil/appliance that you would need to prepare Thanksgiving dinner. We really appreciated the large laundry room as we had just returned from a ten day canoe trip. The neighborhood is quaint and everything is within walking distance. Thanks, Allison … we really enjoyed our stay.

Historic 1850s House

We enjoyed the time spent in this historic town. The home had an antique setting with a settee and Victorian furniture. We enjoyed evenings sitting in that are watching the wildlife. Also enjoyed the walking tour and see the old Methodist-Episcopal Church and the recently remodeled Baptist Church. Fantastic, friendly community.

Family Bonding at 1880s Home

This home was perfect for our families' stay. We had a little difficulty with the front door entry keypad. It seemed to have it's own mind in sometimes opening and sometimes not!! When it wouldn't we went around the house and entered through the kitchen door which always worked. We had quite a group staying with only the 2 bathrooms but...no problem...we worked all that out and it ran smoothly. The beds and pillows were so comfortable. We slept like babies. Only one in our group had a problem keeping the inflatable bed aired up all night. Hopefully that problem will be attended to before the next group needs it! We found the layout of the main dining and living areas made it very easy to have everyone chit chatting together in one space. The long dining table provided a great area to eat and play games. The kitchen is small but very useable and all that we needed for cooking was provided well. We did use the grill and charcoal and matches were there at our fingertips! We would have loved to have had a campfire and enjoyed the garden area more...but...weather did not cooperate. There were piles of wood close by to use. Everyone loved the home (front porch could use a little paint to add to the charm) We were pleased with our stay. We were able to walk to the shops downtown in minutes and enjoy this cute town with the coffee/sandwich shop by the waterfalls, antique shops with icecream, boutiques, candy store and grocery store within blocks. We loved it! (And would come again!)

We were in the area for a wedding and the home was perfect for several adults. Home was furnished with everything we could have possibly needed. Located in a quiet area of town but just a couple blocks off main street so walking distance to groceries, restaurants, parks, etc. Highly recommend!
