Great Stay

We had a great stay. The house was perfect for our needs. We were visiting our kids at the University of Michigan, and it was much better than staying in an overpriced hotel in Ann Arbor. We would book again.

Perfect Retreat!

We stayed here for three weeks. The house is very clean and very well stocked. The beds are really comfortable and the master shower is luxurious. The washer and dryer worked great. The neighbors are super nice and area is lovely. The birding is amazing right off the back porch. Each day we kayaked on the beautiful Huron River and each night we relaxed on the back deck gazing at the gorgeous waterscape. There was a tornado nearby and we lost power for three days. The owners were gracious and gave us a generous discount for the time without power. We were very sad to leave and would definitely stay here again. We loved our temporary home and heartily recommend it!

Lovely Stay

The pictures in the listing do not do the water views and backyard justice. We had a very peaceful stay. The owners of this property were easy to communicate with and they provide everything you’d need for the stay. Definitely felt at home here.

Great to be back!

Our first stay here was last June and it was great to be back this year as well..our dogs were so happy to come back too, like coming home! Everything continues to be pristine, clean, comfortable and well equipped with all the necessities needed for a comfortable stay. The hosts have thought of and paid attention to the smallest details of things you may have forgotten to bring. The beds and furniture are very comfortable and the view of the river and wildlife is so calming and relaxing. They have also provided many things for you to do outside to enjoy the river ,fishing poles, kayaks etc. , there is a spacious yard and a comfortable upper deck and lower patio to relax , eat , grill or enjoy the fire pit. inside there are books games , guitar, telescope for star gazing , living room tv and lower bedroom tv. The hosts are very friendly and easy to communicate with. This is such a great location to get to so many towns activities and sporting events, and the community has a great walking /biking trail near by that is great! Thank you Elyssa and Doug for another great visit.
