This house was great to host extended family to celebrate Michigan graduation. Location was great. We did not get to enjoy outdoor garden area as hoped due to weather but inside beautiful as well. Stadium walking distance, except for grandparents. Host communicated well.
Family stayed to watch Michigan football. House was clean comfortable and had absolutely everything we needed. Bonus was the TV area on the lower floor with access to all the channels and streaming services we wanted.
Fantastic home that met the needs of our group of 10 perfectly. Located on a charming, quiet street close to the University of Michigan. Host was very accommodating.
Beautiful Ann Arbor house, great for a bigger group
This is a beautiful, well kept family home that is very comfortable for a larger group. The host family made sure the house was set up for us and communication with the owner was great. It is close to the Big House in a nice neighborhood and an easy 12-15 minute drive to UMich campus. Nicely landscaped backyard is ready made for relaxing. We would gladly book again.
We stayed in this charming and comfortable house for a game weekend. We walked to the stadium (20-25 minutes). The area is residential and quaint, and away from the campus hubbub. The host was very responsive. The house was clean with lots of character. Recommended stay!
This house is a great find if it listed. It sleeps 8 comfortably and has everything you need. So much better than hotel rooms. Great of a weekend of football or for graduation. You can definitely walk to the Big House or Chrysler arena. Has a main floor BR if you have people in your group that don't want to climb stairs up or down. The owners communicated well and made us feel welcome their home.
This property was perfect for 8 gals in town for a football game. Great location - walking distance to the Big House. Eclectic house with lots of space for a group. Well appointed and very clean. Dealing with the owners was so easy. Would highly recommend this property!
We had a great stay! The property was perfect for our group of 5 couples in town for a football game. The 15-minute walk to the stadium couldn't have been easier, and the house is clearly loved and well cared for. It was a bit chilly so we didn't get to enjoy the property as much as we would have liked but over the summer the backyard tiki bar would be a ton of fun! I'd absolutely recommend this listing to anyone traveling in for a football game or just for a fun weekend in Ann Arbor!

Nice place to stay to walk to The Big House
We stayed with our family for a football weekend and loved it. It is a 20 minute walk to the Big House but it worked just fine.

great location great house
Thank you for sharing your home with us for the Michigan vs. Penn State weekend. It is beautiful and you were great to communicate with. The rooms were perfect. The house was extremely clean and close to The Big House and downtown. We really enjoyed our stay and would make it the first place we look for availability should we need a place again. I highly recommend it to anyone. Thank you again for making the weekend perfect (along with the 42-7 win of course)!

Clean and welcoming home with many comfortable sleeping arrangements! Walking distance to stadium.
The home was so clean and welcoming when we arrived. Each room with sleeping arrangements was perfect, no couple felt like they didn’t have a great option. Each floor had a full bathroom for the coordinating bedrooms to use. This was definitely a plus for those of us women getting ready for the wedding we were attending. The central air was nice as well as the weather was warmer on our first day of our stay. The owners left a sweet welcoming gift and made themselves available if we needed them. The backyard was the most serene place to spend the day, our weather was perfect for being out back. We loved the seating around the fire pit, the hammocks were definitely used throughout our stay and the patio was great for lounging. I think every couples’ favorite accommodation was the Nespresso machine for coffee each morning. How kind of the owners to allow us to use it provide the coffee! The stadium was within walking distance but the neighborhood was far enough away to be quiet and allowed for all of us to have ample parking. The house was very spacious and none of us felt like we were on top of one another. We would most definitely spend another reunion weekend at this wonderful home.

Great backyard. Comfortable home and plenty of space for our group. Location is a short walk from Michigan Stadium so it was so convenient and easy to get there and downtown. Kat and Mark were very hospitable and welcoming.

Comfortable house, Kathy was a good host!
We enjoyed our stay in Ann Arbor at Kathy's comfortable house. We think it should have been advertised as a 4 bedroom instead of 5 as there was no heat on the sun porch and my brother and his wife who slept on the prepared bed out there were a little cold.
Otherwise, great location and we would recommend for a getaway!

Dear Mollie
Thank you for taking the time to provide a review. I appreciate knowing how we can improve the experience for our guests.
I'm sorry your brother and his wife were cold sleeping in the sun room during your stay at our place. The sun room is heated with two base board heaters and is operated by the thermostat in the basement. We did leave these instructions in your welcome note - but perhaps they were not clear enough?
Thanks for pointing this out so that we can let future guests know how they can be comfortable.
Sincerely,
Kathy

Great house and super convenient to Michigan Stadium, campus and town.
The house was clean and spacious. Kathy was easy to deal with, organized and very helpful. This was the perfect place for a few families to spend a reunion weekend together, particularly given the short walk to the game. We highly recommend it.

Great stay in a convenient location
I stayed at this property for a Michigan football weekend and had a great experience. The house comfortably sleeps 10 with sufficient bathrooms and space. The owner (Kathy) was great to work with - she sent ample information regarding the house in advance, and was prompt at responding to questions throughout the weekend. The house is also very close to the Big House and only a short drive away from campus. My group would absolutely stay again!
