We were very happy with our accomodations at Lansing. There were 2 problems we had. The "centipedes" in the house but only on ground floor. And the TV's in both bedrooms on ground floor were not operable. We never did figure out how to get them to work. The grandkids all LOVED the pool & especially LOVED the hot tub.

Perfect for a group

Three floors of spaced out bedrooms and huge kitchen/dining/livingroom space where all can gather. Great price for all of the room and location near the river and town for nightlife and grocery odds and ends. Will book again no doubt.

This property was ok. It served our purpose for 10 people, but could definitely use some TLC and attention to detail to make your stay a little more comfortable. We left a list of suggestions and its up to them to act on them if they want.

If we could have found another place to stay for our entire family after the first night we would have. Please look at pictures for the issues we had. Broken items, dirty looking sheets, too HOT to sleep, rooms not as on listing, LOTS of millipedes on the floors, also on walls, and in some beds. The microwave above the stoe doesn't work so you have to use the one on an end table beside the sofa bed in the dining area. They say it sleeps 16 but there were only 11 forks. Water/ice on refrigerator door doesn't work. We also rented the cabin right beside the house. It had lots of millipeds in it, had a plastic bag with dog poop in the bathroom trash can when we checked in, lots of active wasp nests around the outside that need to be taken care of. Pretty sure there is a bee hive under the cabin as there were many that were going into a hole to the left of the door. Unfortunately it's not letting me upload the video of the floor in the basement bathroom, disgusting.

We had a great time here for our family trip of 12 people. The house could use some updates but is decorated nicely and very spacious. The carpets were very dinghy and overall the house could use a good cleaning. Being from a big city it was a little unsettling when we showed up and all the doors were unlocked but we did feel safe the rest of the trip. The pool and hot tub were wonderful and the outdoor area worked nicely for our family Olympics. Our biggest concern was the bugs in the house. There were lots of millipedes in the basement bedrooms, bees nests under the deck, and we killed a couple cockroaches in the kitchen which might be because there was a lot of leftover food left in cabinets and fridge. Overall we really enjoyed our time as a family but would not stay again without some changes. The area was really nice next to the river and cute downtown area.
