☆Dee Dee's Den: A Dharma Dwellings Parent Company☆

Centrally located near Silver Lake, less than 10 minutes to Mayo Clinic, this home is the largest entry in our Dharma Dwellings homes! Named after Grandma Dee Dee, this is where she stays when she visits the grandkids, but she isn't always in town, and wanted to offer the space to others who could use it while she isn't here! We have been blessed to host hundreds of guests, and work hard to ensure you have an relaxing and restorative experience with us at Dharma Dwellings!

➤This home has the same initial layout as Oakley's Oasis and Poppy's Paradise next door, but has a bump out kitchen and large upstairs/basement bedrooms.

➤Five Spacious bedrooms (two queen bedrooms on the main, two upstairs (a king and a queen,) and one king downstairs), the size of the bedrooms are unique to most of the homes in town.

Great place for a staff retreat!

We booked this place for a 3-day staff retreat and it worked perfectly. Everyone had their own room, and there’s was plenty of space to both work and relax in the home. Great location and the hosts were excellent to work with.
