Location within walking distance to downtown Wyandotte. Large rooms but bathroom shower is scary. Very high so have to climb in and out, nothing to hold on to, somewhat dangerous. Probably would not stay there again because of this.

Michael, thank you for tasking the time to write this review and for the feedback. We appreciate it. We hope to work with you again at any of our properties.
Lol- I get it. These review requests can feel like a burden at times. I'm glad we had a chance to talk about your stay. I know this guys fishing trip staying at an older, neighborhood home may not have been as ideal as a waterfront home, yet it was priced right, and you had an overall good experience. We look forward to having you back at one of our Freshwater properties again in the future.
Sincerely,
Cara
this place is okay for younger people but if you are a senior which we are I wouldn't recommend it. the stairs are steep, and the tub is difficult to take a shower in and get in and out of. You have to park your vehicle in the street because there is no way to get in the garage. It also shouldn't be the people staying there's job to take the trash to the curb. Which obviously severely people before us though so ,.because they didn't do it.They did however send us something we left and the place had 4 window air conditioners and the Neiborhood was peaceful.
Thank you so much for your review, Dawn! You were a great guest, and we’d love to host you again! -Van FVR
