The property was very unique with beautiful views of the river. The host was very responsive. The kitchen was well stocked. It did appear that the property is a full time residence so the there are personal items throughout. We were a party of 6 and enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and fireplace. Great house for entertaining.

Photos of the property and pontoon need to be updated. If the property was in the condition of the photos it would have been worth the cost. But those photos must be MANY years old and do not reflect the actual property condition.

No fitness room or sauna as advertised. Spent a lot of time cleaning the outdoor grill. Shower was amazing. Didn't find the life jackets for kayaks. Really enjoyed the kitchen. Outside sitting areas very nice. Struggle to find the sleeping areas as advertised. Plenty of room for 8 but 12 was very crowded for sleeping. Would have been nice to have remotes labeled or book to instruct how to use them all. Overall Keith was a good host and we enjoyed our stay.

This very comfy & roomy home, sits alongside the Grand River ( great views). It was close to the wedding venue we attended, it was dog friendly ( signs of a GSD throughout) big TV’s came in handy on football Saturday, and we able store many wedding supplies in the garage. Hope to return one day.

I guess I should have looked closer but 4th bedroom was only a couch/fold out. Not very private as attached to another bedroom by a jack and Jill bathroom. The stairs are vintage MCM and dangerous for little kids. Built at a time when we didn’t have seatbelts either. It’s a nice home but peeling paint and chewed up doorways from owner’s dog. The downstairs bathroom has some significant moisture and mildew issues. The bar stools are too tall for the large table making it difficult to sit at. Air conditioning kept resetting at 77 degrees in 90 degree weather. The beach was covered with goose droppings. A lot of tattered furniture at the beach. Also had to clean the blackstone before use. Kinda gross.

My new in-law family stayed here to be in town for our wedding. They enjoyed the house and the property. Wonderful kitchen! We really loved the outdoor spaces! The pets were happy as well. While we didn't realize the two upstairs rooms would have little privacy from each other, the situation worked for our group. We will use this home again in future for family get-togethers.

Location and Neighborhood were great and the communication with the owner was seamless. He was easy to work with, flexible, and responsive (much appreciated!) Aside from a few minor things, e.g., having to use the keys instead of the code and some lack of securing of furniture to the walls for infant safety, all was well.

Great riverfront location

This is a comfortable home with many amenities. It has a large yard that connects to a small beach and river access. It is in a quiet area that is still within easy reach of the city. The owner communicates well and is thoughtful. Needs were anticipated and addressed before we had even arrived. The family had a great time. We would certainly stay again.

The yard is wonderful and so spacious for all activities you could want to do outside. The house is a bit smaller than anticipated, but with enough air mattresses we all slept comfortably. The air conditioning had a hard time keeping up, but it was very hot and humid outside, and there were 10 of us in the kitchen/living room area, so it's somewhat expected. Keith was great and communicates well. While I wouldn't take a large group of all men to this home again, I would use it for families or couples trips. It's a great house in a great, quiet location.
