Good host communication. Nice house with a good kitchen and living area. Excellent location with only a short five minute drive to the beach and downtown.
This house has been beautifully remodeled to accommodate modern use, with a large kitchen and entertaining area, a large bath on the main floors, large bedrooms and a loft area for the kids. Check in was very easy, communication was very thorough and prompt, and the check out was one of the easiest we’ve had in our 8 years of traveling the SW coast of Michigan.
Wonderful property for our family! Well stocked with all necessary items & very clean. Loved the decor & the added items to make s’mores was a nice gesture. Good location too.
We had such a great time at our home away from home!! We did need some help during our stay and had a quick response, maintenance came over and boom sink fixed! Definitely recommend this location for an adult getaway!!!

Janelle,
So glad to hear you all had a great time. We're happy to help when and where needed to ensure you have the best experience. We'd be happy to host you again in the future!
Thank you
Overall the house was great. Had everything we needed. One thing to note is that it was on a busy street and only the master had a closet if any of that matter to your needs
The house was very clean and welcoming. My daughter loved the smore bar that was left for us. The location is on a busy road but was very easy and quick to get everywhere we needed to go. We would definitely stay again.
The overall stay was great; the house is fully equipped right down to the fire wood, and olive oil. The towels could be on the better side, and the location is several blocks from the beach but convenient for the stores.
As we entered the house, we knew right away it was the perfect place for us. It was clean and organized and also had a lovely back porch with a cute fire pit surrounded by colorful chairs. It truly had everything we needed and more. Such a wonderful rental and worth every penny.

Very nice inside and easy check in. Gave it a 4 star because pictures were misleading about location as it was on a busy street. Otherwise good spot for family or 6-8 people.
Beautifully renovated home. Close to everything. Including the wedding venue at Black River Barn. We had a great time. Clean, comfortable, and lots of space. Beautiful back yard with porch and fire pit for axrelaxing evening outside.
The house was very comfortable and all the amenities were very well thought out. There were lots of extra surprises like a s'more kit for the fire pit. A good variety of games and lap blankets in the tv room.
We really enjoyed our stay. Only problem was that on the 2nd night, at 4:00am the upstairs smoke alarm went off suddenly for no reason. One of our group hurried down the spiral stairs and fell. She was mostly ok. Other than that, this house is great place. Very clean and comfortable
We really enjoyed our stay and the house was so modern and had everything we needed to be comfortable. One thing you might want to consider is putting up a mirror in the upstairs bedrooms. It’s always helpful when going on girls trips to be able to put on makeup and do our hair. Something we struggled with was the lack of water pressure in the upstairs bathroom.
We had some issues early on with the plumbing but it was addressed right away. The age group of our party was over 64 so it was more difficult getting up and down the stairs to the bedrooms. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
