Worked great for our family get together. Sleeps 20. Each bedroom has own bathroom. Large 1st floor gathering area, Large deck, basement was great for entertainment. A for host Ryan.
The house is very unique and amazing .. the host is very responsive and nice .
Ryan was awesome. Very accommodating host.
This is one of the best properties we have stayed at in the 8 years we have been doing this. Lots of room for the children to play and for the older youth to do their own thing. One evening we had a kite flying contest with 5 kites in the air at the same time. Far enough out in the country for good nighttime star gazing but only a short drive to Port Austin which has 2 great swimming beaches for children and other entertainment. A plus for those worried about well water taste/quality, Ryan trucks in city water which the whole house runs off.
This was a perfect location for our three generations. The house is lovely and well-stocked for a relaxing vacation. The host was more than accommodating! He replaced a malfunctioning air conditioner in the master bedroom with a new unit the same day. We would not hesitate to stay here again!
Had a wonderful time with family here. Very spacious. Owner is very accommodating. Nice yard for outdoor activities. Would definitely recommend this place.
What a cool experience! Ryan and his family did a great job at making us feel welcome. The house was clean and spacious, the area was fun and interesting. We can't wait to come back!
The building itself was more that amazing, Im I would have to say it’s one of the coolest places I’ve ever stayed. The real thing I have to make mention of is the owner, to say he they were extremely accommodating would be an understatement. We had mentioned a couple outside light bulbs were burnt out, and but by the time we returned from picking up dinner they had all been replaced. Each room had it own private bathroom along with all the small appliances one we need in their own room. There’s not enough great things to say about this property, if your looking at port Austin DO NOT pass this place up.
Each bedroom has everything you would find at a nice hotel. Want some alone time? Go chill in your room with complete privacy. Different bed times for different members of the group? No problem, you can sleep undisturbed while others burn the midnight candle. My 3 year old just loved running around the building being as noisy as he wanted. My older children (the wife and I, too) played a light night game of laser tag (AWESOME!). We grocery shopped, cooked our meals, used the supplied grill, and ate together in the dining room. We played pool in the game room, had ice cream on the deck... and between our times using the property we enjoyed the beaches and attractions of Port Austin! Loved it!
We can’t say enough great things about this place and our Host! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and we can’t wait to go back there next year! The Host was so helpful in every way. The house was clean and very spacious. It was a unique experience!
