Wonderful view from the studio and patio. Check-in and checkout was easy when following the instructions sent by the owner. Close to Pere Marquette State Park, great hiking. I enjoyed the pool everyday.
Very nice efficiency condo right in the heart of Grafton. Very nice view, enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the deer visit right outside every morning and evening. Clean and comfortable.
The location for the property was absolutely beautiful! There was a great view of the river from the balcony. The room itself was small, but clean, but the balcony was large with a table and 4 chairs. The pool was closer than it looked in the pictures and was very nice. They didn't have a coffee pot, like we thought, but there was a Keurig with some pods provided. The Sky Lift was right by the property and that was pretty cool! Overall it was a great place to stay!
Clean room, easy check in and loved the access to the pool. Comfy beds and full fridge to keep snacks. Loved the balcony. When we needed fast communication, our host was diligent and easy to contact. Will book again if in the area.

Disliked: Check-in, communication
Property was as advertised. Excellent location & exceptional views. Room was as expected - nothing special but adequate for two people for a couple days. Recommend for anyone who is not high maintenance.
The views were amazing! The river, the SkyTour and the wildlife! Very simple place to stay. It was clean. We only slept there so it worked for us. We loved the balcony in the morning and evening!
