The tiki bar offers a great place to enjoy beverages and unwind.

Our family of 9 adults and 7 grandchildren spent 5 days here. None of us wanted to go home! The house more than satisfied our needs and was immaculate. The grandkids loved the finished basement room filled with toys. Everyone spent a lot of time enjoying the spacious backyard, complete with mini golf, foosball and even a tiki bar!

Excellent Home for a big group

We absolutely loved: the yard, available infant items, the distance to DTW (Detroit-Wayne airport), how very well stocked everything was, communication with the owner, and easy check in/check out process. I would have left five stars if it weren't for these 2 items: 1) the upstairs was hard to cool off even with A/C and the provided fans (ceiling fans would be a great addition!); 2) there wasn't a washer/dryer available (looking back, the description never indicated they would be; we assumed they would be due to other pervious stays).

Cousins weekend

Cousins and two aunts got together in this beautiful home to connect and have fun. We had family from Florida, Texas, Michigan, Illinois, Arizona, Virginia, and South Dakota. The accommodations were great-especially the back yard! The updated bathrooms were nice as well and we had no trouble sharing without waiting. We hope to be back next year!

Wonderful host! Communication was stellar - best I have ever had with any rental property. Host willingness to help me with special needs for our disabled elderly Mom was above and beyond! House was PERFECT for 3 generation family gathering: sisters, cousins, grandkids... Lots of room for everyone, many places to be together or divide into smaller groups. Outdoor area had lots of sitting room; tiki bar with TV; shady and sunny areas. Open area had a tirf for mini golf! Kitchen fully stocked with lots of spices and staples". Host made available bigger kitchen appliances upon request (crock pot etc). We had everything we needed. Hosts clean up requirements were very reasonable (unlike some I have had) I would rent. Again in a heartbeat! Perfect rental all the way around!

Family getaway

We loved our stay at this property. It truly lived up to being an urban paradise and every age range enjoyed our time there. The host Mary was so incredibly kind and was so communicative and available with responses for any questions we had. Everything was neat and tidy and it felt home away from home. Will definitely recommend a stay here in the future!

Fabulous oasis close to Ann Arbor

The property is lovely and has everything you could need. Sleeping arrangements are plentiful and lovely. Back garden is brilliant if you just want to relax or play games!!!! The kitchen living area is so lovely to sit and socialize if you want/need to be inside. Fresh flowers left for our visit plus anything we needed!! Would highly recommend and return if we are in the area again.
