Our stay here was amazing! The fenced in yard allowed our dog to run freely and for us to rest assured that our cars were in a safe parking area. Brittany and Ray were great hosts and incredibly helpful with anything we needed (such as giving us a toaster for our month long stay). I would absolutely stay here again :)

This was perfect for our quick getaway! Our stay was cozy and peaceful. I would like others to be aware of the tight driveway if you drive an SUV, but we felt right at home.

We loved our stay at the carriage house. Brittany and her husband were awesome hosts and went the extra mile to make sure all was taken care of during our stay. The carriage house was cozy and had everything we needed. A fabulous home base for any trip.

Great for 1-2 people. Lovely bathroom, decent kitchen, great desk space and comfy bed. A bit confusing entering from the gate to the main house, but once process was explained, easy to navigate.

Brittany and her family were the most pleasant hosts. From check in to check out they met every need and then some. They went up and above for comfort. True to its description, this little stay is perfect for any type of getaway. I’d love to come back alone with some books and hibernate with coffee this winter! Best stay yet!

Great place

I stayed here with my dog for an overnight for a show in downtown Detroit. The carriage house was perfect. The hosts (and their dog) were the best. Can’t wait to stay again.

this is a lovely spot and it’s a very considerate and safe feeling Location. The grounds are quite fancy and the interior had everything I needed minus a couple condiments the clawfoot tub with plenty of hot water was fantastic, the bed was comfortable, and I slept like a rock. I made myself a fire pit fire in the morning and brought down my tea. It was exactly what I needed thank you hosts!

Perfect little place! Hosts were amazing! If you forgot something or needed something all you had to do was ask. It was an ideal launching place for us to explore the Detroit area. Visited Belle Isle and Eastern market. Took in two Tigers games and did a tour of the neighborhood. There’s a fire pit and wood to burn. Perfect time at the perfect place!

Close to Hamtramck

Went to see a band in Hamtramck and didn't want to drive back to Lansing. Less then a 10 minute Uber ride to the venue. I'll definitely stay here again for future shows.

Carriage house weekend

This property is darling. Brittany is an excellent host, quickly responsive and helpful without being overly present, which I appreciated. The neighborhood is lovely as is the property this carriage house is on. The carriage house itself is a loft style apartment over a garage. For accessibility info, there are 15 steep steps to climb to reach the apartment. It looks as cute in person as the listing shows. The mattress is too thin for my preference and would benefit from a foam topper. Despite this, I slept very well while I was here, much appreciate the black out shade. I enjoyed my short stay and would book this again.

About the host

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

This is my only listing and is behind our house, which we’ve owned and have been fixing up for 10+ years. We live in a historic area of Detroit with some walkable coffee shops and bars — though the bar is a little longer of a walk. It’s a comfortable community with lots of charm and easily accessible to downtown / midtown and entertainment venues.

What makes this property unique

The bathroom has the original cast iron, clawfoot tub and sink. The floors are original (painted) hardwood. The space is a cozy, quiet, and private alternative to downtown hotels in a nice to walk through neighborhood with a coffee shop and bar nearby.
