David C. Whitney Mansion in Brush Park

Wow! How fun. A great old restored mansion, steps away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. Less than a block from LCA & theQ the QLine

Perfect place to stay for larger groups. The house has so much character and well stocked for cooking. Plenty of parking and so close to hockey, baseball and football. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The house was amazing!! If you are looking for a great place to stay in Detroit this is it! House was perfect and the communication was excellent!! I will definitely be back!

Excellent place and even better location if you have an event at Little Caesars

House was great for what we needed, everyone enjoyed it. Just noticed some cobwebs (large property, prob tough to keep up on dusting) and didn’t have ability to view photos of the entire property when we booked.

Beautifully restored historic property with modern amenities. Ideally located. Host promptly addressed any questions and clearly communicated. By far, my best VRBO stay to date

What an amazing place, highly recommend

What. A. Place. I'm convinced there is no cooler, comfortable, historic, and convenient place to stay in the whole city or metro area. We immediately called our babysitters upon arrival to tell them we would NOT be leaving in the morning, as we needed as much time as possible in this place. A top memory of our summer!

Very kind and flexible host, beautiful house, wonderful stay in the heart of the city.

What a stunning mansion, would like to Jeff for allowing my family to experience this restoration. A ton of work was done to restore this place to its former glory. The space was very comfortable with many amenities, our pets had a blast too. A million thank yous to Jeff and the work he has done and continues to do.

We loved our too short stay at the Whitney Mansion. It’s a beautiful home, so gorgeously renovated and decorated, very comfortable. We had everything we needed. Communication with Jeffrey was excellent, the beds and bedding were comfortable, and the location was perfect for so many things you’d want to do in Downtown Detroit. Although it was very warm the hvac system kept up, which is impressive for a house of this size. We would definitely stay here again.

We only had an overnight stay as we came into town for a concert at the stadium. This rental had way more room that what we needed but was in a great location and walkable to the Lions stadium. The home itself is beautiful and has a ton of character. It was an easy walk to the stadium and to any nearby restaurants etc. The host is very responsive and was great to work with. A couple of days before our trip we had to make a change and he was very accommodating. On our way there I received a message that the wifi was down and he was working on getting it back up. We would have been fine but when we arrived a couple of hours later he was there with the cable company finishing up and had everything up and running. After we settled in we noticed there was only one role of TP. We weren't to concerned as we were only there the night. The host had messaged me at some point why we were at the concert saying he realized he hadn't restocked and had left some. When we got back it was on the stoop in a basket. If your looking for a place in close proximity to the stadiums this is it.....Dont sleep on this rental!

This is an impressive historical home with gorgeous oak details. The location is very convenient to the sports complexes, all within walking distance. We were in town for a family celebration, and the location made for a perfect gathering site. The property manager was very helpful! I highly recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy visiting Detroit.

My kids and I had such a great time and experience on our trip. Jeffrey was very kind and welcoming and prompt with communication. Very cool house. Most comfortable beds I have ever slept in while traveling.

Jeff was an excellent host. Extremely responsive. Made our group of 4 feel very welcome. He provided a brief history of the mansion/Upper unit. The location was perfect for a short/safe 10 min walk to Ford Field. Comerica Park and Little Ceasars Arena are even closer. Walking distance to several restaurants and bars. The Whitney House Upper Unit had a lot of character, charm, plenty of space and was very clean. We will absolutely stay at the Whitney House again for our next overnight visit to downtown Detroit. All around great experience. Could not have asked for more.

Came in town for the night & glad we stayed here because how close it is to the arena. Nice walk, nice place. Huge

Quick walk to Little Ceasers Arena!

Our family came to Detroit for an event at Ford Field. This home was perfect for us! The house was clean, beautiful & a very short walk to the arena. We felt safe in the area, the communication with the owner was above average, and we loved the architecture/history of the house itself. Parking at the house was really a bonus, as we had friends that had to park/walk quite a long way for the same event. The amenities were above average, we appreciated the coffee, garbage bags, paper towels, tissues, laundry soap, etc... its the little things... Thank you again for everything, we will definitely come again.

Nice property and great location!

Loved the character and the views from the upper floors. The owner never made me feel like I was bothering him for asking questions and had a ccontagious courtesy and enthusiasm. Plenty of paper products on hand which have been skimped on in previous vrbo rentals. No one wants to ration toilet paper while on vacation. Only thing I would improve is having an info sheet on premises explaining some features such as how the heat works. The house was exceptionally clean when we arrived.

What a beautiful house, the location, linens and views were amazing. Definitely staying here again!!

Jeff’s place was great and the location in downtown Detroit could not be beat, especially if you are attending a sporting event. Jeff was a very welcoming and responsive host.

The heat was out in the property but Jeff was nice enough to offer us another property and got it ready for us last minute!

Looking for a place to stay near the Detroit Lions, Tigers, Pistons/Redwings stadiums or just downtown Detroit? Stay here! Stayed here with family for an overnight to watch the redwings. This location couldn’t have been closer! Just a short walk from the arena and you are home. Private parking makes it so you don’t pay parking ramp fees. Super clean, very quiet at night, they take care of all trash and linens at the end of the stay so there are no worries, just stay and enjoy. Jeff is very attentive and quick to get back with you with any questions you may have. I would highly recommend and would come back given the opportunity!

We will be back for sure. Superb location for going to Little Ceasar’s Arena, Comerica, and Ford Field.

Great but stairs

Group of four travelled to Detroit to watch the Lions home opener. Property was in a great location and an easy walk to the stadium and surrounding entertainment district. I would highly recommend this property to anyone attending and event at Little Caesar’s Arena, Ford Field, Comerica Park or and of the concert venues in downtown Detroit.

We loved the house, very historic with modern amenities! Jeff was a great host! We will stay again!
