The host was very responsive and helpful. The decor was amazing. Every room had a retro, nostalgic, and fun theme. Cool lighting, unique furniture, and even the plates were special. The kitchen was well-equipped. There was a coffee station with flavors, plenty of coffee and more. Three TV's and a "fireplace". Cozy, clean and comfortable. What more could you ask for!

Great time at Twist & Shout!

The theming is very fun! Great location to be able to walk around Two Harbors and explore the North Shore. The beds are incredibly comfortable after a long day of hiking, and the kitchen was fully stocked with anything we could have needed for cooking.

Rock and roll

Fun atmosphere and responsive host. Bed was comfy, cute coffee bar, fluffy towels, lots of cute details and vintage dishes. We enjoyed listening to some old records on the record player. Main issues: entry way light was all but burnt out. There were quite a few flies to contend with. There were a lot of remote controls but we couldn't figure out what they were for.

Fun decor with great amenities

We enjoyed our short stay in Two Harbors. The top floor of this home was decorated with a fun 50's theme throughout. The coffee and popcorn was a fun and appreciated feature. The weather was quite warm when we stayed mid-September. There was a portable A/C unit in the kitchen with fans for the bedrooms. The kitchen stayed nice and cool, but the bedrooms were uncomfortably warm. If we opened the windows, the street noise was quite loud. The stairs going up to the unit are quite steep so for some that could be a challenge. Overall this was a convenient, clean and great stay for our getaway. Thank you Janelle!

Over all awesome, but some problems with air conditioner control with kitchen very cold and bedrooms were some what too warm. Some flys coming in with air conditioning set up around window. Would stay again and recommend to others. Decorating was fantastic. Felt homey.

Nice

Yes this place is as adorable as it looks with its theme and liberal use of Hobby Lobby signs. It was also clean and well stocked. The downtown area is only about 4 blocks away but the places on route 61 are really close. Super close. That is because the house is located on 61, and if you are unfamiliar, route 61 is the main road up and down the north shore. Like any house it has some good and some not as good: 1) You share the house with other renters. Being an older house, you can hear them. You are renting the top floor and upon entering you have about a 14 step climb to your area. 2) The house is on route 61 and you should expect a lot of traffic noise. A. Lot. 3) Wifi wasn't great. We ended up using our phone hotspot for the majority of our stay. 4) The rooms can get pretty warm during the summer, and there is an air conditioner, but it's in the kitchen and doesn't really cool the rest of the house off. (We put one of their fans in the kitchen doorway and that helped a little) 5) Great theme - adds to the ambiance. 6) It was super clean.
