Lovely place for our family of 3 to stay and our cousins to visit to play!

We were in town for a wedding, and this home was perfect for us, our 3-year-old, and my parents to make home for 3 days. There was also a lovely patio by the river and ample space for our son and his cousins to run around during the day. And communication couldn’t have been easier. Truly a great experience all around.

Great Getaway!

Beautiful house on the Huron River. Hosts went above above and beyond to provide all that we needed for a relaxing stay, even a bottle of wine! The house is just down the street from the Dexter Cider Mill and a easy drive to Ann Arbor. I highly recommend staying here.

Why they chose this property

We LOVE living on the river and hope you'll enjoy this property too! Lovely location, VERY near town but secluded and part of nature.

What makes this property unique

Unique eco-friendly property located right on the river, steps from parks, biking, skiing, kayaking/canoeing and water-sports. Solar panels power the home, rain barrels collect water for gardening, a rain garden collects run-off water for plants and we compost/recycle as much as we can!
