The house is located in a very quiet area, although I was expecting it to be more in town. The exterior was fine, the landscaping needed some upkeeping but we really enjoyed the hot tub. The inside was more or less as expected. The kitchen and dining area were sufficient for our needs and the living room and bedrooms were comfortable. The bathroom was smaller than expected and there was only window unit air conditioning, which didn’t seem to work well, fortunately it wasn’t too hot out during our stay. Our main disappointment was with cleanliness. There was some sort of paper trash under the TV stand and a chair and some hair pins on the floor near the desk in the living room, so the floors hadn’t been swept well… or at all, from previous guests. We went to get a frying pan out of the cabinet to cook breakfast and the cabinet and pans were not only dirty but there appeared to mouse droppings as well!

Cozy and clean. Bathroom was a little on the small side for 4 ladies,but we knew that before hand. The twins beds in the 2nd bedroom, really need to be updated. Squeaked with every move and no box springs. And lastly it would be nice to have more string lights on the Pegola by the hot tub. However with the above being said our hostest Sara was great and very responsive. The house was nice and well appointed. We had a great time and laughed so much. Good location, quiet. Appreciated the recommendation to go the the Welcome Inn, we went twice and had a blast there.

It was a very beautiful stay, lovely home, kind communication with hosts, the beds were extremely comfortable. We loved the hot tub, barbecue, big yard and fire pit! It was very clean and a great place for family. Only issue was that the WiFi was extremely slow, so we couldn’t work online or watch a movie at the end of the day. Other than the wifi, the stay was absolutely wonderful!!

Very conveniently located between st. Joe and Stevensville in a quiet neighborhood. We really enjoyed the hot tub and laundry was nice to have. Kitchen was short on cookware which made cooking tricky and window air conditioning didn’t always keep the bedrooms cool but we were there during an unusually hot week of 90 temps.

We stayed at the Breezy pad for a family vacation and it was wonderful. We were able to bring our dog with and the house was very dog and family friendly. We loved that it was close to plenty of beaches and the neighborhood was very family friendly and quiet. We will definitely be making this a yearly family vacation.

Super cute cozy home. Overall are stay was great. It was a little overwhelming when we still hadn't found out to get into the home after driving several hours away at check in time. I was able to contact host and she sent instructions via text due to a auto error. I would stay in the home again if needed.

This house is a hidden gem! It’s very comfy and in a great location; a quiet little neighborhood just a few miles from Lake Michigan. The A/C units in every room are effective, but a little noisy. But the hot tub more than makes up for it! The host is very responsive and accommodating. 5 stars!!!

Not a vacation rental
The house was ok and the neighborhood was nice, but the description and pictures of the rental were not accurate of the house or location. I would have never rented the house if I knew there were window units, which were not pictured in the listing. Myself and daughter have serious allergies which were exacerbated by the window units. We had to stay out of the house as much as possible so we didn't feel miserable in the house. The bathroom was tiny and there was no room to put anything (toothbrushes etc.). The house had a very musty wet dog smell, overall it was like staying at your grandparents house not an expensive vacation rental that was "in the city center on the river".

Not really as listed.
This is a very honest review of our experience and we hold no ill will to the owners. I hope that the owners will make appropriate improvements and be successful renting this property in the future.We stayed for 1 night of our scheduled 3 night stay the major issue was rodent droppings in the kitchen among the pots and pans. Owner did respond quickly after notification of the rodent droppings, and refunded our money.A few things on the listing.Listing states:house has air conditioning. - there is no air conditioningOn a river - its in a older neighborhood in the city. There is a stream about a mile away its not on a river.In the city center - not really what I would call the city center. The neighborhood may be in the center of the city but that's not my definition of a city center.Hot tub was over treated and reeked of chemicals did not get in for fear of burning our skin. I own a hot tub and know it does not have to be like this.There are 2 ceiling fans in the home in the master bed and kitchen nothing in the main living space.We wanted to open a couple of windows to get some fresh air in and circulating. I don't know that the inside of the window casing had ever been cleaned.Pet Friendly for an additional 65.00All in all the house did not live up to our expectations nor (at least in my opinion) those of the listing.

Cute and quiet neighborhood
A great value for the low price. Super clean, freshly painted and well appointed. We enjoyed the hot tub and the fire pit. Dog friendly house, but the outdoors, no. Smallish fenced area in the corner of the backyard. You must walk a significant bit to get to it. Our dogs escaped from the gated area twice. It is not adequate for small dogs.
