Great for Hosting the Fam!

We chose this place for its convenient location, scenery and generous seating for the family visits. We cooked several meals for the family in the well equipped kitchen. Bathroom & bedroom arrangements were good. Best of all, the host was quick to respond and easy to work with.

Beautiful sunrise and great location. Enjoyed the delightful outdoor space and cleanliness of the house. They allowed us to bring our two dogs and there was room for their crates. Only negative was the bed was too hard for our taste. Would stay here again!

Great house!

We used the house for a place to stay while in the outer Detroit area over the holidays. The owners allowed us to put up a little artificial Christmas tree which made being away from home for my grandsons just perfect. The living area is a large space and was perfect for hanging out between family visits. The three bedrooms were very comfortable.

The house was awesome! The only thing that I would say is be careful if you have pet allergies as there was a lot of dog fur in the house and on the couch that caused my friend to have a slight reaction. Other than that, the house and stay were awesome! Thank you!

I booked this gem for its proximity to an event in which my daughter was participating. It was to be my 1st shared accommodation w my son, his GF and their dog, so needed a pet-friendly venue. My mom added on at the last minute (with permission.) House located on a peaceful canal near the entrance to a lake w scenic view and entertaining (not overwhelming) waterfowl (pair of mallards, loon, couple geese and a swan seen across the lake.) My cousins lived nearby and the sitting/dining area was large enough to accommodate 12 of us for dinner (with permission.) Had a relaxing campfire on the spacious deck. House had plenty of storage, privacy and all appliances worked perfectly. While an older home, there were many thoughtful updates. It was a genuinely pleasant experience.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Location was excellent for our needs. The lake is electric motor only, so it was very quiet and peaceful. The cleanliness of the unit was lacking. Food left in cupboards and refrigerator from previous tenants. The oven and outdoor grill need a good cleaning. The home had a musty smell upon entry. The living room A/C system failed and took multiple visits from technician to correct. I needed to set aside 5 days to allow repairmen into the home.
