The house had lots of character, and plenty of space for our group of 6. It snowed twice during our stay, and there was a shovel and ice melt available. We left, and when we returned the driveway and walkways had been cleared. It truly could sleep 10 and everybody be comfortable. The host was very responsive, and the amenities were more than expected. When in the area again we will certainly stay again. Thanks for the hospitality.

quiet, charming home

We had a great time at the Gains House. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and close for walking downtown Royal Oak also close to a market for food items. The house is clean, comfortable and has a great location if you need to hop onto the highways for traveling around. I would definitely stay here in any future travels to Michigan!

Visiting family over the holiday who are spread out across the city. Nice central spot. Managers were highly communicative and checked in to ensure things were okay. The beds are comfy. Lots of room to spread out for a family of four (or more).

Great time in Royal Oak/Detroit

Had a nice stay! My family was able to spread out and enjoy the space and watch a movie together in the comfy family room. Helpful labels on everything and well-stocked kitchen for essentials and good coffee. Hosts very responsive and helpful. Great feel from Olive's in Ferndale and easy access by car to many areas of metro Detroit.

Great house in great location!

Our family came to town to celebrate a relative’s birthday. We truly enjoyed our stay in the home. There was plenty of room for all 9 of us (6 adults and three teenagers). Everything was super clean and comfortable. Checkin was easy. Matt, the host, was very helpful. The location is perfect - close proximity to downtown Royal Oak, which has tons of shops and restaurants. Streets and sidewalks are great for running/walking. We’d highly recommend and will stay here again next time we’re in the area!

Great little spot!

My husband and I took the kids to Royal Oak for some shopping and to catch up with friends. Everyone really enjoyed how cozy the house felt, and we all agreed the beds were super comfy! It's located in the cutest neighborhood—very safe and just a short distance from downtown. I especially loved the "stone living room" because it was incredibly cozy and inviting. While it was a bit cold, my husband and I still enjoyed sitting in the back yard every once in a while as well. We’ll definitely be back to stay here on our next visit!***Matt was extremely helpful and easy to communicate with.

Work visit

Gains House is a cute home located in a quiet Royal Oak neighborhood. The only drawback was a spotty internet connection. Matt tried to help me troubleshoot the issue over the phone, but it continued to be a problem. Aside from that, all my expectations were exceeded.

What an awesome little home! I traveled here with girlfriends for a shopping trip. This home met all our needs with easy access and awesome accommodations. All the feels… 1. Matt is super attentive! He checked in with me several times and was very responsive. 2. There are nice extras provided such as bath products, and coffee and tea. 3. The home is beautiful and very well kept and super clean. 4. The beds were very comfortable! We all slept exceptionally well. 5. The neighborhood is very safe and quiet with nice local food options. We would definitely stay here again!
