The house is spacious and clean, with plenty of room to gather—including a cozy living room with high ceilings, a big dining table perfect for meals, a front patio for relaxing and watching the rain, and a back deck for outdoor hangouts. The fire pit is a nice touch, though the swing and outdoor chairs could use some repair or updating. There's ample parking and the property is pet-friendly, which was a huge plus. Communication with the host was excellent—friendly, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay.There are a few things to be aware of, especially if you're traveling with young kids. The outdoor space wasn't quite as advertised—the trails had poison ivy, and the stairs down to the river were damaged, with missing steps that caused a few people to trip. The deck balusters were widely spaced, posing a fall risk for little ones if not closely supervised. The gates at the stairwell were not secure, and one of the bunk beds had a broken ladder. Also, the bathroom layout could be inconvenient—only one full bathroom is accessible to everyone, while the other is located inside the master bedroom, meaning others would have to pass through to use the shower.Great for relaxing on-site. Stores 15 min, lakes 30 min, Dow Gardens & Lake Huron park 50 min away.In summary, this is a great spot for large groups of adults or teens looking for a comfortable, pet-friendly getaway, but it may not be the best fit for families with young children due to some safety concerns.

A lovely home with plenty of space and bathrooms for us all. It was in a nice wooded setting. We enjoyed the nature trails and walk down to the river. We wish we had been able to access the river directly behind the house as in the past.

Stay was great as always. Nice and relaxing. I took one star off cleanliness because the sun room had a strong cigarette smell. Other than that everything was good.

Disappointing experience

We rented this property with high hopes, but unfortunately, we left disappointed due to a few issues. Firstly, there were no working smoke detectors in the home, which is a major safety concern and a non-negotiable for me. Secondly, the hot tub was in terrible condition – the water looked green and filthy.For future guests, I hope these important matters are taken seriously and fixed promptly. It’s a shame because the location and overall layout of the home were nice, but safety and cleanliness should always come first.

Great place for a family getaway

Beautiful home that was well decorated for the holiday season. Plenty of space for an extended family of 18. Cleanliness was 10/10. Driveway was plowed and salted which was a great peace of mind with the winter weather. Would highly recommend. Hours of fun and laughter to be had in the many spaces.

Overall a great stay in a beautiful home.

Nonstick cookware was scratched up. Lots of cooking utensils provided. Corn kernals found in one bed, pinecones found in another. Plenty of towels provided, but could use more wash cloths. Night stand in master bedroom unstable. Liggts are dim, could use more/brighter lighting. Directions to home via Google Maps are about 1/2 mile off. Overall a beautiful home. Host very responsive to messages.

We were a group of 12 (10 adults and two kids under 3) and fit comfortably at the property. Everything was as advertised in the property description except for the water access since the stars down to river were roped off. We'd stay again!

Sibling getaway

Very relaxing around the fire pit, clean house, unfortunately the pool table needs work and the staircase down to the creek was very scary, would not want children playing on that staircase
