Lots of charm and only blocks away from the Root River and Bike trails

Step away from the crowds in this quiet, quaint town of Preston located in Fillmore County. This VRBO is only blocks away from the Town Center with a nice Grocery store. It is also walking distance to the Bowling Alley with a bar and grill. You will feel safe in this small town living and there are no traffic lights in the town. It is located 3 blocks from the Root River and Bike Trails, that goes through other small towns. Preston is know as Minnesota’s Trout Capitol. It has a 9 - hole fishing course. It also has a Public Swimming pool costing $5.00 per person. Lanesboro is a 15 minute drive which has shopping, Live Theatre, and a Fish Hatchery. Harmony is about a 10 minute drive and known for its Amish tours.

“Root Haven” is family oriented. There are 3 bed rooms and a play room with a closet full of games for you and your children. This home is comfortable and ready for your visit.

Charming and centrally located
We enjoyed our holiday weekend stay in this comfortable, charming home that is centrally located to Lanesboro area activities. Exceptionally clean and tidy and had everything we needed for a long stay. Activities we especially enjoyed were Mystery Cave State Park and Estelle’s Eatery in Harmony. Highly recommend to those visiting the area.

Sister’s stay
Incredibly clean and comfortable. Reminded me of my first house which made me feel right at home. Pauline is considerate and leaves staple items from previous guests. S&P, a few condiments, coffee supplies, etc. and keeps the checkout process simple! Thanks

My Grandson's birthday
We were in town for my grandson's birthday. We usually stay at a nearby inn but it was booked, so we tried a VRBO. It was my first time and I am thoroughly happy with the experience. Pauline provided communications and updates from the moment the house was booked. When we arrived the home was clean and inviting. We felt comfortable and enjoyed our stay. I would recommend anyone to stay at the property. Carol
