Great location, quiet neighborhood. Our usual VRBO was not available. We were happy to find this one and it is our new go-to now when we come visit. Very spacious and well appointed. Nice touches in decoration. We felt right at home and so did our dinner guests. We all had a great time!

The property was convenient to the Chippewa River Bike Trail which is why we booked it. There were four adults so we liked that it had two bedrooms with queen size beds. It was adequate for our two night stay. We were only two blocks away from an area where we ran into several homeless people, but the area also had a few decent places to eat and hang out. The host was very responsive and that was appreciated.
