Boathouse was very clean and had a well-stocked kitchen and 2 beautiful bathrooms. Host responded quickly to questions. Quiet location and close to the interstate for our daily trips to explore Detroit and the surrounding areas. Only suggestion would be maybe more comfortable bar stools. We spent our evenings having dinner, then playing cards, dominos, etc. at the kitchen island which is the only table and even though they had nice, good condition back-less stools it would be more comfortable to have bar stools with backs. Would highly recommend this VRBO

The unit was fantastic. Very nice finishing and furnishings. . My only critique would be to clean the windows. That would have blown me away. The unit was so clean

Perfection!! This was our 4th year staying at this property for our Thanksgiving visit home with family. Even with the change in ownership, nothing about this property has changed. Adam was a fantastic host. We had a quick response and timely resolved issue with the door lock and property access. Property is kept spotless. Tons of towels, comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen. We will definitely be back and hopefully can get out for a summer visit too. Thanks for everything Adam.

The boathouse was excellent. Very clean and equipped. The only feedback I have is that the instructions for locating the entry door and entering the code need to be added to the instructions to access the property.
