Great house in great location

The house is very cute and comfortable! Neighborhood was great - quiet and close to things. Trundle bed with 2 twins was perfect for our kids. I wish the second bedroom had another queen size bed instead of a full size, but beds were really comfy and we'd definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Home and Neighborhood Close to Detroit

Enjoyed this beautiful home in a very nice neighborhood. Proximity to Ferndale restaurants and markets was terrific. Ferndale is such a pretty neighborhood, I felt very safe and loved all the well maintained older homes. For being so close to Detroit it was safe and an ideal location to head off in multiple directions. I recommend staying here to anyone, and will certainly come back again.

Great Home with a Quiet Neighborhood located near everything

We stayed here for Dream Cruise. Walking distance to 9 Mile Road and everything it had to offer. Lovely quiet historic neighborhood. House was very roomy and comfortable. Big kitchen and hosts were very friendly and remained in contact during our stay. I would definitely consider coming back for Dream Cruise 2026.

INCREDIBLY cozy and homey house - unlike many VRBOs that feel sterile and unlived in, this is clearly a home, which was especially welcome bc we were there for Christmas. They even had Christmas decorations for us! Bedding was delicious, and I'm picky about that, hahaha. 10 out of 10 for sure. Didn't get to enjoy the yard bc it was cold and wintery weather, but looks fab for summer.
