The host, Emily, was very kind and quick to respond if we needed anything. Which we didn’t need much, because she has the home set up so perfectly. It was clean, stocked with whatever we needed, and very cozy. She also decorated for Christmas which was a lovely touch. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Very nice space with a great living room and quiet area. Bedding was low quality with top sheets missing on all but one bed, mostly clean but there was mold on the shower curtain and in the washing machine, and the kitchen supplies were low quality and lacking a bit. Host was great and very responsive.

This property did not meet expectations. We were surprised to discover that the thermostat was kept under lock and key so that we could not adjust it at all. Additionally, NONE of the beds had top sheets! They were literally a fitted sheet and bedspread! What are the chances that the bedspreads are washed between visitors? We also ran out of toilet paper and kitchen trash bags. The toilet paper shortage was an unfortunate discovery at 3am. We were further surprised that the property does contain stairs that are required to access two bedrooms. One of our party is handicapped, so we were specifically looking for a single story property and found this frustrating (and dangerous for her). Home decor was cute, but these problems overshadowed it.

Work trip/ family trip

Beautiful place with lots to do! We came here for the week because my husband is working close by. We had the best time! Lots of things to do with kids without having a car. Cute little beach to walk to, fishing, kayaking, playset for the kids. Great place for our 9,8 and 6 year old. Place was clean and very welcoming. Emily was so kind and easy to communicate with. Little coffee shop/gift shop and staff was also AMAZING! Would definitely recommend this place! 10/10

Relaxing Stay in Monroe

My family and I loved this place! Plenty of space for our group of 5 and my dog! It was a very wonderfully decorated and comfortable house with lots of areas inside and out to hang, play games, read, watch football and be together! Loved having the coffee/gift shop next door. It didn’t disrupt us at all. Easy to access Detroit for a tigers game or the state park for some lake time! Would stay here again if in the area!

Beautiful and comfortable

Our family loved Emily's house....the little store, the house itself, the backyard overlooking the marina. The place is spacious and beautifully decorated. We grilled out for the 4th of July and had a wonderful time. The marina is currently somewhat stagnant, but we took the kayaks out to the lake anyway and had a great time. Thanks so much.

We wanted to find a place that would accommodate our boat and dog and woodchuck marina was above and beyond our expectations. Emily was wonderful!! So accommodating and has done a beautiful job renovating. Yard is fenced in which allowed our dog to be off leash outside. So nice. Beautiful home and yard with a relaxing hot tub after a day on Lake Erie. Would stay again in a heartbeat. Thanks for having us Emily (and Chief). You guys are awesome.
