We really enjoyed our stay and the host was very accommodating, welcoming, and responsive! The home is spacious and we enjoyed spending time in the backyard. We found everything we needed from towels to extra chairs. Switches/drawers/instructions were labeled clearly around the house which really helped with findin. The home was perfect for our family of ranging ages. We would definitely love to stay here again. The location is ideal and a short drive to Ann Arbor.

Exactly what we were looking for

This was exactly the home we needed for our annual trip back to our hometown in MI! It gave our family a home base in a beautiful home on a beautiful property that had enough space and amenities to comfortably accommodate family and friends over the week we stayed. We loved it here!

Great family stay!

We stayed here as a group of 11 (6 adults and 5 kids between 5-10) and we all had a great time. The property is beautiful and there is plenty of space to spread out. There were endless options for the kids to play both indoors and outdoors and feeding the fish in the pond was a favorite for my youngest. The cookies when we arrived were a wonderful surprise - thank you! We would stay here again :)

Very nice for our 3 night stay!

The house was secluded, away from the road & a HUGE yard! We didn't have kids on our trip, but they would have loved the yard and the playset in the backyard. The home was cozy & fit our family well. Ann Arbor is 10 minutes away and has everything you will need! The deck was under construction & a few minor repairs are needed (one of the hinges on the bedroom door was broken, some kitchen supplies were limited, paint touch ups, etc.). We had a happy 3 night stay!

Fun-in-a-box was perfect for what my family and I needed for a quick trip to Michigan to visit family at the holidays. The house was spacious, everyone had their own room with comfortable beds, while also having a large living space and kitchen that allowed us to spend time together. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed during our stay. The location is great. It is somewhat secluded, with good privacy provided by the trees around the property but it is Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, and a short drive to grocery stores and restaurants. It is also close to the highways so it is convenient to other parts of the metro Detroit area. Being winter, we didn't spend time outdoors but the outdoor spaces are also nice and would be great during warmer months as would the game room in the garage. The host communicated regularly, checking to make sure we had what we needed. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely return.

House was beautiful and we had a great celebration. The only issue we had was the frezzer upstairs is broken and the hot water had a bad smell. But I reached out to the owner so she would know.Perfect place for a Christmas celebration.

Great place for family get together‘s!

Staying at “Fun-in-a-Box” was an excellent experience! The house was clean, and welcoming, with everything we needed to have a great family get together! The beds were extremely comfortable! It was nice to have the backyard where the kids could go outside and play, and we could all play yard games. Also nice having the foosball table, and dartboard out in the garage. Not too far from shopping and restaurants! We were able to run into town and get some supplies from the nearby Costco. Also, very nice having the grill on the back deck! Thank you so much Nicole for a wonderful time at “Fun-in-a-Box”!

Fun with friends

The house was perfect for our needs: 15 minutes from Ann Arbor and roomy enough for 12 people. To be honest it was not as clean as I'd hoped — the floors didn't seem like they'd been washed, there were rings on the coffee table, etc. — and some aspects of the house definitely need updating. The deck, in particular, needs to be fixed. There were wooden slats coming apart, which didn't feel safe for the little kids using the slide. That said, the welcome cookies were a nice touch :)

Thanks Nicole. I'm glad to hear that the house was perfect for your needs! I have reached out to our cleaning team to let them know your observations. It is on our To Do List to replace the deck.
