My new in-law family stayed here to be in town for our wedding. They enjoyed the house and the property. Wonderful kitchen! We really loved the outdoor spaces! The pets were happy as well. While we didn't realize the two upstairs rooms would have little privacy from each other, the situation worked for our group. We will use this home again in future for family get-togethers.

Location and Neighborhood were great and the communication with the owner was seamless. He was easy to work with, flexible, and responsive (much appreciated!) Aside from a few minor things, e.g., having to use the keys instead of the code and some lack of securing of furniture to the walls for infant safety, all was well.

The yard is wonderful and so spacious for all activities you could want to do outside. The house is a bit smaller than anticipated, but with enough air mattresses we all slept comfortably. The air conditioning had a hard time keeping up, but it was very hot and humid outside, and there were 10 of us in the kitchen/living room area, so it's somewhat expected. Keith was great and communicates well. While I wouldn't take a large group of all men to this home again, I would use it for families or couples trips. It's a great house in a great, quiet location.

Great riverfront location

This is a comfortable home with many amenities. It has a large yard that connects to a small beach and river access. It is in a quiet area that is still within easy reach of the city. The owner communicates well and is thoughtful. Needs were anticipated and addressed before we had even arrived. The family had a great time. We would certainly stay again.

Beautiful unique property!

We very much enjoyed our stay- even caught a catfish in the backyard! My only issue is that it is a 3 bedroom- not 4 like the add says. It also says there is a queen sized bed in the entertainment room and there isn’t. The kids slept on couches and it was fine, but the add should be corrected. That said, it’s a wonderfully unique house in a fantastic location!

Location is great

Right on the Grand River, this rental had excellent outdoor activities. The house is lived in so there is little separation between the owner’s belongings and rental space. This was challenging at times trying to keep kids out of the owners goods. Two suggestions- lower the island bar stools as they are too tight to fit legs under the new island. (Great island btw). The second suggestion is for new mattresses in the lower bedrooms. One has a big sag in the middle and the other is lumpy. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the great location.

The house is out dated/needs to be painted and outside was dirty. We could never get the key pad to work so had to use the hidden key to access the house. When we arrived it was 77 degrees in the house and took a long time to cool down. The second day we had our daughter’s wedding and spent the day in 90 degree heat. When we left I turned AC to 70. We returned to it set at 77 with the upstairs over 80 degrees. The listing says it sleeps 12 but in reality it only sleeps 8 comfortably. I do not recommend staying here. Way over priced. The plus on the house was the master bathroom, blackstone grill, large bar table and large TV.

Nice property but issues

Keith sent a nice message before arriving and we assumed the stay would be great. We quickly realized the house was no cleaned, toilets had poop stains and the shower had clumps of someone else’s hair all over and clearly the counter tops had no been wiped down. Unfortunately also upon arrival one of the two bathrooms was broken. We had 5 people and had to share a master suite bathroom the whole weekend, you can imagine the frustration that included. Luckily construction workers were set up outside and let us use their disgusting porta potty outside of his house. We reached out to the owner immediately with no response, second day reached out to owner and still have yet to get a response to this day. Clearly a joke to even try to get help. The second and only toilet almost gave out the first morning we stayed so clearly there was a known plumbing issue.

Awful!Vrbo should investigate this owner/home- should have known something was fishy with a 3000 fee- SCAM.Cleaning crew should be ashamed- When we arrived, the house was dirty, smelly, and unkempt, owner had clothes in bedroom closet and food in the refrigerator and freezer. Dishes, bowls, glasses all had to be washed before usage. Kitchen floor needed to be swept. Outdoor deck chairs were very dirty and the card table was disgusting. Very misleading description- not 4 bedrooms, really 3, entertainment room did not have bedsIt does not sleep 12, we barely fit 9 uncomfortably.The downstairs basement beds were not queen beds, the entertainment room did not have beds, rather couches, futon in the living room was unusable (it was not a living room, rather the landing area of stairs to the bedrooms). If we opened the futon, it would block the entrances to the upstairs bedrooms.The upstairs bathroom door and main entry door didn’t close properly.The temperature was brutal- basement 60, main level 78, upstairs 80- very hard to sleepRooms facing sunrise didn’t have shadesThe boat was not operational.Seemed like a failing/leaning tree in the yard could be hazardousRun down, poor quality homeShould not be able to rent!
