We almost exclusively use vrbo when we travel. The view from this property alone made this one of the best properties weâve stayed at. The owner was attentive and accommodating. We canât say enough good about this house.
The property was clean, comfortable and as described. We appreciated the smart TV's and the arcade and board games too. The cords with outlets and USB ports were very convenient throughout the space.The large living room TV and reclining sofas made for a great movie night. A few goodies were provided for us along with fixings for coffee.
The large outdoor deck has plenty of seating space, a grill and my favorite, a hot tub (with towels provided). I enjoyed soaking while watching the freighters go by. We also spotted a cruise ship, a naval ship and ships going by in the dark of night. A fun novelty for us.
The yard on the riverside was quite large. Consisting of a bonfire pit, picnic table and ample room for yard games which were available to use.
Marine City is about four miles away with nice places to dine and shop. Watch your speed limit as the street signs change, we were paid a visit by a friendly copper. My husband got a speeding ticket. He was going 12 mph over, ticket was for 5 mph over and cost $85. Whoops! We ate at Little Bar Restaurant and Anita's, both were very good with fun seasonal cocktails.
The upper floor living space, deck and yard was ideal for the four of us and we give this property four thumbs way up!
This was our 2nd stay here and it was just as FAB as the first time.. The house and the Location are just about perfect.. Ty (the host) is more than hospitable and the view from the upper balcony is one of the best for freighter watching.
We are hoping to go back for our 3rd visit next year..
The good: we loved this location itself, very beautiful place with amazing fishing!
The bad: we received a few calls from the owner wanting to know when we would be there. We arrived later in the evening to find out this listing is not actually the whole home. It is a duplex, and we apparently only rented the top floor that was 15 steps up to the living area. Luckily no one else was renting the lower space at the same time! The sliding glass door to get outside to the hot tub is broken! It took so much effort to open/close. The first morning we had left to go to breakfast to come back and find the owner inside with the doors open. He said that he needed to clean the lower lever so it would be ready for the next group in 3 days. Every day that we were here the owner would show up, each morning!! We felt rushed to leave, check out was at 11 he was there cleaning out the hot tub at 9:30 am. We really wanted to take one more soak before we left. The blankets/sheets smelled like sweat and had food on them when we arrived. The extra sets in the closet were clean so we just changed the bedding ourselves. I hate to leave a bad review but if I had read more reviews like this we would NOT have stayed here! We both truly felt so uncomfortable staying here!
Really enjoyed our getaway to Marine City, huge yard on the beautiful river, the beds were so cozy and the unit had everything we needed, we also really enjoyed the hot tub
Ty was attentive to guestsâ needs including a complimentary bottle of wine on arrival and a âpampered guestâ amenity box for toiletry needs. The property had a nice view of the river and a spacious patio with hot tub (ample towels provided) for relaxation. It was a short driving distance to dining and shopping areas. Great place to spot the large freighters traveling through the Great Lakes region. Would stay again!
We booked off season at the last minute to get away, and Ty was a welcoming host. Hot tub was excellent and very clean. Comfy beds, well stocked kitchen. If you want to stream some tv, you will enjoy the reclining couches. Beautiful area.
We had a small group stay here for a fishing weekend. Ample parking for all 3 of our rigs and could have easily fit a 4th. House was clean and had everything needed. If stairs are an issue for you this is not the place.
I would recommended staying here to anyone looking for a place in this area.
Tyâs place exceeded our expectations. The view was awesome. The unit was very clean and full of nice complimentary items. The hot tub was exceptionally clean and already the perfect temperature. And our 11 year old rescue dog Toby was welcomed to stay with us. Which saved us money on boarding and made it feel like a family friendly outing.
Very spacious and clean, can't beat the view and is very well stocked! We lost power due to a storm the first hour we were there and Ty (the owner) came out immediately and hooked up a generator until the power came back on about 24 hours later! Couldn't ask for better service than that! I would highly recommend staying here!
This was our second time staying at Tyâs place. It was just an awesome as the first time. Ty feels like family, he is super nice and accommodating. The condo/apartment is always well equipped and super clean. I never worry about the cleanliness of dishes or linens there and the linens are soft and cozy. Ty puts extra special care into making your stay feel special and comfortable. The location is awesome with stunning views. Truly a gem. We will most likely be returning at some point. Would definitely recommend. The only downsized for us this time was only one bathroom to share between two ladies. Haha. But we made it work.
The property is set up well for any freighter enthusiasts like we are. You can watch them from the upper deck or from the hot tub.
Ty made the check in very easy and thoughtful. Although he has a place downstairs we never saw him after check-in. He respected our privacy and had everything we needed in place.
The hot tub was clean. The bed we slept in was comfortable (king size).
We had our own little paradise for the weekend.
Thank you Ty!!
We had a wonderful birthday getaway at this VRBO that is located on the Saint Clair River. Tyâs place was very clean, comfortable, peaceful, and we loved all of the little touches that he included. Watching the freighters was a lot of fun and relaxing, from the hot tub or deck! The beds were very comfortable and the furniture was like new. We will definitely stay here again.
