About the host

Hosted by Maj-Lis Nash ( pronounced Mylease )

Host profile image
I was born and raised in Onaway, MI but moved to Nashville, TN in 1996. I am happy to say I am once again a Michigander as we moved to Ann Arbor in 2025! My husband Daryl and I are extremely happy to host your stay. My very large family, The Chapmans, mostly all still live in and around Onaway and are all on board for helping my guests whenever needed. My dad, Clark Chapman, and brother Jesse are my onsite handymen and my cleaning crew is lead by my close cousin, Jeanie.

Why they chose this property

This is truly a family venture and we are so excited to have you stay with us. This is a working farm so you might see our fields being cared for by Mike as he plants and harvests wheat, barley and corn. The sunflower are a labor of love by my dad and my Uncle Mark, Uncle Terry and brothers Jesse, Travis and Tyler keep the 100s of flowers arranged and blooming. Feel free to pick flowers on your stay. Come spring we will tap the maple trees to harvest for making syrup in cousin Chucks sugar shack and every fall the apple trees share enough fruit for dad to can some amazing applesauce. The big bard in over 100 years old and you are welcome to take photos near it but please do not go inside. The painted sunflowers ( by my niece Lina ) make an amazing photo op to share with your friends.

What makes this property unique

Being a family run venture there is always someone close by to help you if anything goes wrong or is needed. We don't sublet to an outside source to care for our guests. Feel free to wander the property and explore the beautiful landscape my family works hard to provide. Do not miss the sunrise from the front porch and you can catch an amazing sunset if you wander out in the fields and look west. Blackcap raspberries might be in harvest for your picking on the side of the shed and some beautiful grapes will show in summer on the vines.
