10/10 would recommend!

We had a wonderful stay in Bay City! The house was super cute and comfortable! It was less than a 10-minute drive to the downtown area. The place was fully stocked with basic bath/shower supplies. The kitchen was equipped with appliances and cooking essentials. The hosts provided us with detailed instructions about check-in and check-out. Overall, great experience!

Wonderful home to stay at!

Our 2nd stay there and did not disappoint. Very peaceful in the large backyard, that allows for visitors to stop by. The owners are always friendly and polite. The decor brings back memories of staying at my grandparents house. The 6 of us really loved it!

Wonderful place to stay. The house is set up with every convenience and so comfortable. The yard is large with beautiful plantings. Two outdoor seating areas. Excellent parking space available for truck/boat trailer and visitors. Neighborhood felt very safe. The hosts are a pleasure to interact with. Cannot say enough good things about this rental.

The Wonderful Wenona Cottage

My family (husband, 12 yr boy, and 14 yr girl) loved our week at the cottage. Everyone had their own room/space. It was especially wonderful that the primary room was on the opposite side of the house and had an exterior door, coffee maker, mini fridge, and full bath! The house is surprisingly spacious. We were able have my siblings and their kids over for a taco dinner. The backyard was perfect for morning coffee, as well as, campfires and s’mores. The location worked perfect for us and the convenience off the party store across the street can’t be beat!
