This is our second time staying in this house and we loved it! The house is very comfortable and being by the lake for our boating and fishing adventures is a plus! We will be back!
From the point of check in, Nancy was incredible, very accommodating and helped me get the booking. We were working in the Detroit area and were very fortunate to find such a wonderful place that not only had great views but was spacious, very clean, had plenty of parking, and was just a great home to be able to stay in while away.
The location is really beautiful. Mornings on the front deck with coffee watching the sun on the mountains is really relaxing and refreshing. Everything was as good as can be in a rental property. Would definitely recommend this property to everyone. I hope we get to visit again sometime. Thanks to the host for great communication.
We keep our friendship strong by planning short getaways, having fun exploring new places together. We had a wonderful time discovering the new Detroit nestled in the beauty of our lakes and mountains.
Had a mini-family reunion on the lake. The house was lovely and everyone had a great time. The only very slight negatives were no bathroom upstairs for the loft and the outdoor grill was only half-working. But overall 5 stars!! Would definitely stay again!
The property is nice, but has lots of stairs. Some up to porch, some inside to main level. Showers are very small. Many extra thoughtful items for renters. The biggest problem was the lack of shade outside. The only shade was the small porch and the temperatures were between 90 and 100. I will say the ac worked very well. The other big factor was the lack of a bathroom on the second floor. If all these things were addressed the house would be perfect. I understand that the owners have not owned the property for very long, and in talking to the owner, they are still working on it.
We had a great time staying here. There is plenty of room and comfortable sleeping arrangements. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. The house has games and toys for everyone with fun lake activities nearby.
The only thing Iâd note is that if you have a large group, be sure to bring extra paper towels, toilet paper and trash bags which can be purchased at the little store in Detroit in a pinch.
We had a great time overall, thank you for opening up your home to us.
Very comfortable for family with little kids and 6 adults
The space was very comfortable, everyone had their own area as well as a common area. A lot of stairs, if you have kids who are crawling, bring baby gates. The main area has 2 stairway entrances. The amenities were awesome and if we had questions or issues the owner was very good at responding to messages within an hour. Parking space was awesome for 3 vehicles and a big boat trailer. More could have fit there. The floors could have been a little cleaner for being a shoeless house, but not bad. We enjoyed our stay very much and would definitely do it again!
We have stayed at Bear Grass Lodge many times and it feels like home. It has everything you need to enjoy some time out of the rat race. Itâs beautiful to see the community of Detroit building back stronger than everâ€ïž
Our last stay at this home was so great that it was an easy decision to re-book when we returned to the area for more work this spring. The home was just as pleasant as the last time, and we are looking forward to returning again next month! An absolute must book if you are in the area - even if you aren't, maybe you should be! Detroit is a lovely town.
The house served our needs perfectly and had plenty of room for our group of 4 adults. There were lots of thoughtful, personal touches throughout the house, and communication with the host was excellent. It really felt like staying in a HOME - and a cozy one at that! The location is great, super close to the lake and downtown, with a really nice view. We will be back for sure and would absolutely recommend this house to anyone looking to stay in the Detroit area.
Thank you for everything, they made us feel very welcome. The house is a great place to come home to after a long day on the lake, very clean, great air for those hot hot days. We will be back, thank you.
We had a wonderful, peaceful stay at this charming cabin within 2 miles from Detroit Lake. You can actually see the lake since the house is on a slightly elevated area. Nancy (owner) was very prompt in her responses, very approachable, kind and generous. We couldn't have found a better place to spend two nights away from home. We highly recommend this beautiful home to anyone wishing to relax and enjoy Detroit Lake!
This home was very comfortable it had all necessities. Our family cooked meals in kitchen, BBQâd and played games. The beds were very nice and bathrooms adequately stocked. We will definitely stay again.
