We wanted a quiet home to relax with our dogs in between dog shows. This house was perfect. Nice secure fence in the back with a good deck for us to sit and watch them. The house is in great shape and had the coffee maker and nice size mugs for our morning coffee before heading to the show. In the evening, the family room was set up well for us to relax. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home.
We had a great stay at BigBlue! Clean and well equipped place. The host was very easy to communicate with and made our family gathering very convenient. Will definitely stay here again!
We (group of 6 adults and one child) stayed for a family weekend to visit our daughter at SVSU. The house was just as described and well stocked with bathroom essentials and kitchen tools. The house is very clean and while the neighborhood looks older, it was very quiet and we had no issues or ever felt unsafe. We would absolutely stay here again!
We had a wonderful stay at Big Blue for our group of 8! Jason is a super fast and thorough communicator. The home smelled great, was well stocked, very clean, and had a super comfortable couch for movie night. The hot tub was clean and enjoyed. We liked that the yard was fenced in, feels secure and private. Really it had everything we needed. Thanks Jason and Jamie!
Jason was very attentive to our needs and inquiries and checked on us asap when we got into the house The house was clean and had everything that wwe need.
We had a great stay in Bay City the hosts were wonderful and answering our questions. Everything was brand new in the unit. I would definitely book again
Wonderful, clean home. Plenty of comfortable beds in good size rooms, lovely decore. Hot tub was enjoyed by all. Cool coffee, hot beverage station. Very good and prompt communication with host
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Big Blue House. Didn’t need a thing during our stay. Seamless! The house was so clean & well thought out. Our family adored the hot tub!!
Our home away from home!! We loved the cozy warm house and getting my grandkids to leave was like pulling teeth!! Lol . We had a great stay and consider coming back!!
This listing was perfect. The house was very clean, spacious and beautifully decorated. I would totally stay here again. The only thing I would change is either the 10:00 am check out or the 4:00 pm check-in it made our short stay feel even shorter.

Thanks Terri, glad you had a good time. I’m definitely flexible on the check in check out times. Have it set up that way to insure we can get the house cleaned in time if it’s a same day turn. Even if same day turn we usually can get you in early no problem. Once in awhile we will get guests that have made a huge mess and it’s not possible but that is very very rare.. thanks again Hope to host you again soon.
Absolutely loved this property. Communication with the owner was a A++ fast responding. If your looking for a getaway this is the place you wanna check out. The inside is so clean, the neighborhood is quiet,the inside of this house is updated. The hot tub was amazing . Everything was just prefect. Look forward to staying there again
This house has everything you need. It was an excellent stay and we wish we could have stayed longer. Very clean, lots of amenities including a hot tub, board games, corn hole, even a neighborhood bar right down the road to walk to! We loved it. Thank you!
I rented this house for a group of friends! We had the best time for the New Years weekend! The house is clean, spacious, and cozy! Everything was updated and well maintained. Even the doggo with us had the best time. The hot tub is a great addition too! The hosts were very responsive and helpful when needed! Would definitely stay again! Happy 2023!
