⸻We had a wonderful stay! The host was amazing and always quick to respond to any questions, which made everything so easy. The house was very clean and comfortable. The location was also great—just a five-minute drive from the Navy Recruit Training Command. It was perfect for us since we were in town for our son’s Navy graduation. Overall, a great experience and we would definitely recommend this rental!

Perfect location so close to Great Lakes Naval Base! We couldn’t have asked for a better location. The house was lovely and had many thoughtful amenities. We would definitely stay again.

This being my first short term dwelling experience, I could not help but feel as if I was on the 15th floor of a 5 Star hotel. Imagine, if you would, a floor plan designed for merriment, fantasy and fun. The repetitive uuhhs and aawws sounded like a rehearsed melody. Available amenities made it instantly feel like a home away from home. Bring your expectations and become surprised and satisfied at the same time. No need to worry or think shoulda, couldda woulda because everything you’ll need is already there. Without giving much more away, my stay at this well thought out get-away was one that I’ll always remember and never forget.

Home was cute and as advertised, outdoor area great for families to relax. Only recommendation to have some information at the home for guests in the event the alarm system is activated so it can be acknowledged quickly.

This was a very cute bungalow. It's old but well maintained. There was a roach in the bathroom, not the big cockroach but a small roach. I didn't see any signs of uncleanliness anywhere in the home, so we chalked it up to coming from outside. This isn't the best neighbor but we enjoyed ourselves. I'm prior military myself and many military installations aren't in the most desirable areas. It was convenient to the base, which was my primary reason for being here. Staff was very accommodating and available.

Very nice and newly remodeled property. Would definitely recommend. Property owner was pleasant and attended to maintenance issues promptly. Pool table and air hockey tables were fun to play on. There is even a sauna on the property but we did not use it. Great location for being near the Naval base.
