Lansing Home — Work-Ready, Patio & Walk to Downtown
A clean, well-equipped 2-bedroom home in Lansing with a private workspace, full kitchen, in-unit laundry, and a backyard with hammock and outdoor dining. Walking distance to Downtown Lansing, 10 minutes to Michigan State. Built for extended stays, relocations, and anyone who needs a real home — not a hotel room.
522 Dunlap is a thoughtfully updated home on a quiet residential street in Lansing. The living room has natural light and comfortable seating. The kitchen is fully equipped with stove, oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, drip coffee maker, and everything you need to cook real meals. A dining table seats four.
Two bedrooms and one full bathroom with a bathtub and bidet. The dedicated private workspace has fast WiFi and Ethernet — set up for remote work or long study sessions. In-unit washer and dryer included.
The private backyard has a hammock, outdoor dining area, and patio furniture — a genuine outdoor space, not a shared courtyard. Room-darkening shades in the bedrooms. Board games on hand. Crib and pack-n-play available for families.
• 2 Bedrooms | 1 Bathroom | Sleeps 4 • Dedicated private workspace with WiFi and Ethernet • Full kitchen with all appliances • In-unit washer and dryer • Private backyard with hammock and outdoor dining • Patio with furniture • Central AC and central heating • Free on-site parking • Smart lock entry • Long-term stays welcome • Pet-friendly — fee applies
Downtown Lansing is walkable. Michigan State University is 10 minutes away. Sparrow Hospital and McLaren are under 15 minutes. Lansing River Trail is nearby.
Guests have full, private access to the entire home — both bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen, living room, workspace, backyard, and patio. Entry is via smart lock with your unique code ready at check-in. Free on-site parking is included.
This property is professionally managed by Gilson Property Group — not an individual host. Every stay is prepared to the same standard: thorough cleaning, quality linens, and responsive support from booking through checkout.
We give guests their space. If anything comes up — a question about the property, a local recommendation, or a concierge request — we are reachable through the VRBO messenger and respond promptly.
Everything from private airport transfers and grocery delivery to private chefs, in-home spa services, and guided excursions is available through your Gilson guest portal before and during your stay. Browse and book on your own schedule — no phone tag required.
Before your stay, we will ask you to complete a quick identity verification through our guest portal. It takes just a few minutes and is how we ensure every Gilson stay is seamless and secure. A valid driver’s license and rental agreement are all that is needed to confirm your check-in details.
A $250 security deposit is collected prior to arrival — similar to a hotel holding a credit card on file — and released in full after checkout once all access items are returned. Guests may also choose a non-refundable Damage Waiver instead, selected during the pre-arrival verification process.
Our guest portal also includes our full concierge menu: private chef, grocery and alcohol delivery, airport transportation, welcome kits, in-home spa services, early check-in and late checkout, guided excursions, and local recommendations — all available to browse and book at your convenience, before or during your stay.
The primary renter must be 25 or older.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.
If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking.

Mixed review
The house itself was clean but has some notable maintenance and upkeep issues. The upstairs bedroom is a bkistering oven in any kind of heat even with the cooling fan.
We had an issue with the refrigerator CONSTANTLY beeping for our entire stay. Communication with the property owner was easy and very responsive, there just was no meaningful resolution to the issues.

Pleasant stay
Nice property, that worked well for our needs. Was able to work and visit with family while grieving the loss of my father-in-law!
Quick response from property manager and owner when needed! Maintenance man was great too! All nice to have if an issue arises.
