The Little Loon Cottage is a very cute, neat, and clean house. So much of the house looks brand new. The 2nd bedroom is a little small for 2 adults, but the size of the kitchen, dining room & living room more than make-up for the tight bedroom. The 4 of us really enjoyed relaxing together in the living room. We used the clothes washer & dryer & they were both full size appliances!Our host, Jennifer, was so helpful with offering suggestions of things to do. She was also very quick responding to questions.The 4 of us were bicycling from Fargo, ND to Minneapolis. We really appreciated the cottage being ideally located for walking downtown to good restaurants and walking to a grocery store. Alexandria has a lot to offer.
