Outstanding rental. Very clean, updated, and well equipped with everything needed for a family or multi-couple stay. We had a perfect stay with our two kiddos, great location near the main north-south roads to get around metro Detroit. Probably one of the best VRBOs we've ever rented.
Host was awesome in responding, to my request, entry was easy… Very clean and had everything we needed, my daughter the teenager was even happy. Very quiet area. Would definitely book again
We had the best time staying at this house during our recent trip. This location is so well stocked and thoughtfully planned to be very accommodating. Our boys had so much fun with the toys downstairs and in the backyard. The kitchen and laundry room made it feel like home due to ease of use and amenities. We will definitely be re-booking on any future trips to the area.
Needed a place to stay for a business trip and was looking for something in the Royal Oak vicinity...
This property not only worked out but far exceeded expectations!
Great location in a nice quiet neighborhood, really nicely recently renovated home, The beds were very comfy and everything was clean. The hosts were amazing, quick, friendly, and super attentive if you needed anything.
Would highly book again in the future!
This property was exactly as stated. We were happy to have the backyard and all the rooms. Our stay was really great. Internet modem went down, but the owners came to fix when they realized, before we even did. We messed up on checkout date, dont ask, but the owners were so great and patient while we bailed out as quick as we could.
Kitchen was gorgeous, bedrooms had every thoughtful touch you could ask for--chargers, adapters, dryers, linens, gorgeous patio, welcome snacks---what a TREAT!
Communication and access was a cinch, as we came in the evening and everything was exactly as described, though I dare say more spacious. Cozy neighborhood great for walking, and located close to everything one would need!
I will happily return --highly recommend this gem!
Stayed here during a snowy cold weekend in January. Everything was great. The property manager reached out a few days prior inquiring if we needed a high chair or pack and play which was very much appreciated. We have a soon to be 3 year old and he loved the books and toys in the basement. Us adults also loved the basement bar area but really you can’t go wrong at this house it’s very comfortable and nicely updated. We will stay here again on our next trip to RO.
We had a wonderful stay. The house is perfect. We were in Detroit to celebrate my great- nephew’s 1st birthday. The house is beautifully decorated. Great amenities-everything we needed for our home away from home. The beds were super comfy with super nice sheets. The basement was decorated mid-century with foos ball, packman, games and books. It would be a wonderful place to stay for families with children. An added bonus was the quiet street filled with tulips and beautiful trees blooming with white and pink flowers.
