About this property
Detroit's Riverside Hideaway
Unwind at this unique and tranquil getaway in the city. This 1906 Canal Home has been thoughtfully designed to bring groups of friends and big families together. In the city, with secluded retreat vibes, it's the best of both worlds. Recognized by the Detroit News as one of Michigan's Dream Homes, there is plenty to enjoy outside and in- including a grand dining room with space for 12, and the many outdoor gathering spaces- front porch overlooking the Detroit River, 2 decks, patio + canal. Welcome to this year-round Riverside Hideaway. Enjoy sunny canal days, colorful fall evenings, and peaceful winter escapes off the Detroit River. Professionally managed, this one-of-a-kind vacation home blends cozy comfort with a touch of European flair. Every corner offers something unique — from the colorful dining room that gathers everyone around the table, to tucked-away nooks perfect for reading or relaxing. 🍳 Cook & Dine Together The full kitchen is stocked with new smart appliances and plenty of space for the chefs in your group to create memorable meals. Whether it’s a big family dinner or a quick breakfast before exploring, you’ll have everything you need with an indoor dining table for 12, or outdoor patio dining for 12. 🛌 Rest & Recharge Distinct bedrooms feature green tea memory foam mattresses for restful sleep, plus Smart TVs so everyone can unwind their own way. 🌿 Outdoor Living at Its Best Step outside to a wraparound yard along the canal — complete with yard games, a grill, a pebble patio strung with café lights, and a spacious side deck shaded by trees. • Sip your morning coffee on the front porch overlooking the Detroit River while freighters drift by. • Enjoy an evening BBQ under the lights as kayakers paddle past. • Bring your own watercraft for boating or paddling (or rent locally) — with a dock on the property and easy access to the Detroit River and Lake St. Clair, you’re set for canal cruising and fishing adventures. 🌆 Explore the Neighborhood You’ll be just minutes from local favorites: a children’s bookstore, pizzeria, brewery, wine shops, and kayak tours. When you’re ready for city energy, downtown Detroit is a straight shot down Jefferson Ave. Why Guests Love It ✔ Waterfront home with private dock ✔ Spacious yard with games & multiple outdoor gathering spots ✔ Family-friendly with plenty to do nearby ✔ Easy access to Detroit River, Lake St. Clair & downtown Detroit The full house and yard is available to guests except mechanical and one storage room. There is also plenty of parking on the property for multiple vehicles and boats. Available during your stay for any questions or if you need help with something. Camping not permitted.

About the host
Hosted by Bobby

I live locally, here in Detroit. It's such a vibrant city with rich history, and I'm inspired by the people living here or just coming to support the city.
Why they chose this property
This is such a sweet pocket in Detroit- It's a tranquil spot nestled on a technical island, but you can drive here. But it's still close to lots of happenings and walkable to an amazing restaurant and bar.
What makes this property unique
Truly one of a kind in this city. It's a big house that accommodates many people, and has so many peaceful, functional outdoor spaces. This is the spot to be when you want to be in the city, but feel like you're a little removed.
