Beautiful property in a great location! By far my favorite property I've stayed at in the area so far! The home was conveniently located to restaurants and the water with a lot of offerings for entertainment near by. The host went above and beyond with small details to really make this feel like home away from home!! I highly recommend it!

Detroit Beach

House was tastefully decorated and very clean. Neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. 2 of our guest had to cancel at the last minute so it was just my spouse and I. Only negative - bring your own shower gel/soap. Would book again!

Pictures did not do justice, what a beautiful place. Close enough to Detroit and Toledo. Lake was just across the street and had a great view. Host was quick to reply to any questions. Beds were comfortable and place was neat and clean. Thank you Carolyn for allowing us to stay at your property.

High Quality Lakeview Vacation Home

The property was beautifully prepared and well-stocked with house essentials. There is a beautiful view of Lake Erie and easy access to local beaches. We greatly enjoyed staying in this bright and comfortable vacation home. We appreciate that our pet dog was welcome, too.
