Friends Trip
Roomy, very clean, updated, nicely decorated & comfortable. Great deck space on 2 floors overlooking Black River. Recommendation: additional kitchen drying towels & another chair or bench for dining table. Five chairs is not enough. Enjoyed our stay.

Great Home
The house was beautiful and our extended family had a great time staying here. The hosts were extremely thoughtful and considerate as there was a water main break for part of the whole city and the property was located in an area that was under a water boil order. The hosts checked in immediately to let us know what was happening and had plenty of bottled water delivered right before we arrived to last us our stay. Great hospitality and professionalism shown during a difficult situation. Close to downtown Port Huron.

Fishing Fun w/friends
Immaculate property on the black river. Property has the comforts of home with plenty of space for privacy We especially enjoyed the walk out recreation room so we could enjoy music & grilling while also fishing off the dock. We caught several large catfish & enjoyed pine grove park & blue water bridge. We enjoyed a great hibachi dinner at the Tokyo Grill. This was our 4th year to port Huron & will definitely be back!

I would not hesitate to use this home again!
We stayed here with extended family. The house was very beautiful and clean, communication was quick when we had questions. We were able to check in early when we asked. Appliances, fixtures amenities were all updated and very nice, a large space for extended family to stay at. Some nice touches like a full refrigerator in the garage, bar area downstairs, convection oven, plenty of bedding/linen for everyone. We did provide feedback to the owner that the air mattress had a leak in it and Terese quickly said that she would have replaced right away had she known, that's on us, but she was helpful and wanting our stay to go well.
We would definitely use this home again, highly recommend to anyone!

Family reunion
We had a family reunion near by and a number of us like to stay together. We loved the location and being right on the river. The property looked recently constructed/remodeled and was very clean and comfortable.

This property should not be on Vrbo!
I booked this property through Vrbo and got a confirmation. the day we were supposed to check in, I received no lockbox code. I emailed the owner all morning and finally got a response that this property was supposed to be taken off Vrbo as they rent through another site and no longer rent through here. She told me it was already rented out for my dates I had scheduled and paid for. Do not rent through here!
