Very seamless check in. We visited for a concert and this was perfect! Would have been nice if we had more time to enjoy the beautiful outdoor space. It was well stocked with anything you may need for your stay. If ever in town again we would stay again in a heartbeat!

The accommodations were as described, but there was no mention of the Deer Flies that swarm your vehicle and you when you're outside, and the centipede issues inside.

Close to Pine Knob

We rented this as we were attending a concert at Pine Knob. It close to the venue and cheaper than surrounding hotels. The place was nicely appointed, had a full kitchen and comfy beds. Great for two couples! The backyard setting was peaceful and relaxing.

Fantastic location with a short drive to Pine Knob. The space is comfortable for two couples. The air flow stopped during the night which made sleeping on a warm summer night a bit uncomfortable. If there was a fan in the bedrooms it would help with air movement. The kitchen needs measuring cups and spoons as well as at least one spatula or turner.

Comfortable and clean

Our son attends Oakland University and plays baseball so we were in town for 3 nights/4 days over Easter. This VRBO had everything we needed and was very comfortable. It was great to relax and spend time as a family as opposed to staying in a hotel. We would stay here again. The owners were very responsive with any questions we had.
