We rented this house 9 years ago and enjoyed our stay. Upon arrival this year we shocked to see how it had changed. The door mat on the sidewalk leading up to the front door was a trip and fall hazard, decaying. The deck was covered in dirt, with weeds growing up thru the cracks, and there were tons of spiderwebs on the deck railing which I spend time cleaning. This was my vacation and I should not have had to clearn. The windowsils in the kitchen were filled with dust and dirt, which I also cleaned. All of the windows were dirty, and in the master bedroom one was nailed shut. Fresh air and clean open windows shoud be an option in Northern Michigan in the summer. When I mentioned the issues to the owner his response was not acceptable... he said "oh we provide nice soap and pasta" LOL,, I did not rent this house for his opinion on what I might like for soap, or to eat. This owner is in this business for a money grab. I would suggest others to look elsewhere for a rental.
