Great space! Huge kitchen for helping fam with turkey day prep. Everyone could spread out and relax and also come together with ease. LOVED the fireplace, such a cozy vibe and the hot tub was beautiful and well placed. Dogs were very happy to have the yard
This property is one of the nicest and best equipped rentals we have ever stayed in. Beds were comfy, fireplace was wonderful and there was planet of wood. Magnificent kitchen with all the stuff you need to cook a great meal.
This house was genuine a delight. It had everything we needed and was located in a charming friendly town. I would thoroughly recommend this house to any family wanting to explore the area.
This is a great house and location for a family to gather and celebrate. We enjoyed the amenities and the ability to just walk the town. When we had a problem the response from the house manager was prompt and very helpful. We would definitely stay here again!
My mom grew up in Ferndale and I came here every summer visiting my grandparents so this was an amazing place to stay and take in everything Ferndale. Easy walk everywhere we wanted to go to and explore. Spacious and comfortable. Perfect house for a perfect getaway.
Sweet Retreat was absolutely everything you could ask for. We love to cook and there was EVERYTHING you could possibly need in the kitchen. It rained the first night we were there and the fireplace was beautiful. The beds were super comfy and the place was immaculate. Thanks for the wonderful vacation......Patty B
Lovely home. Very clean. The kitchen had every imaginable appliance and then some. Fun kitchen to cook in. The location was one block off Main Street and close to everything. The town was decorated for Halloween which was fun.
To sum it up, this is our third time and always appreciate knowing the home will be exceptional. The hosts are responsive and accommodating. The home is beautiful and clean and walking distance to town. It’s a quiet neighborhood and one of our favorite places. Thank you again
Great location with easy walk to the charming main street of Ferndale. Such a wonderful home for a family stay! Fully equipped with anything and everything you would need for your visit. Great spaces for relaxation, conversation, cooking meals together....I could go on and on about this property. The downstairs ensuite bathroom was incredible and so tastefully done as was the rest of the home. The size of the kitchen and it's workspace was unreal....this place will make you wish you didn't have to leave!
This was our second trip to Sweet Retreat. We had to cancel last year because of my son's cancer. We would like to just move in and stay permanently. It is homey and allows for all of us to find our own space. It has every thing you need to prepare food of your choice. You enjoy cooking and having family close.
Ferndale is always special and you find family there even when you don't have any. Town closes fairly early, but coming home to this beautiful and comfy home makes for the close of a perfect day.
We stayed Monday thru Saturday.
A great bit roomy comfy extremely well-stocked house! just like the listing says. The big yard was perfect for the dog - he could lay in the garage on cool cement, or go on the deck and look at us in the house and he could trot around the corner passed the enormous hot tub into another little courtyard to do his business. Perfect! The decor is beautiful. The furniture is heavy and sturdy - giant leather couches that recline. The kitchen is huge and we cooked breakfasts every day. The location was fantastic. We walked from the house to dinner downtown each night and to and from the Shaw House Inn where more family was staying. The big quiet comfy bedrooms were heavenly retreats from each other. The town is so quiet and peaceful and beautiful - every home is a piece of art. Every other home has a gorgeous garden. We walked to morning mass twice and adoration. The museum was literally across the street!!! and same with the pizza/salad bar/pasta restaurant. We all had the best time. My mom said it was the best vacation of her life. My brothers were relaxed. I am so grateful to have rented this home and so incredibly happy to have found Ferndale! The first visit for all 9 of us!
We had a wonderful time. Such a cute little town and the house was close to everything. The house was great and super spacious! Would for sure stay again!
We stayed at the Sweet Retreat for a family wedding in Ferndale. The house was well stocked, beds were comfortable. Location was perfect. Quiet and peaceful neighborhood, easy walking distance to Main Street. Would definitely stay here again!
Absolutely loved our stay! The house was spacious, clean, and beautifully appointed with everything we needed. The large kitchen was especially impressive—well stocked and perfect for cooking and conversation. The location couldn’t be better—just a quick walk to Main Street with shops, restaurants, and more. Highly recommend!
The house is wonderful, fully equipped, comfortable and close to downtown. The only downside was the lack of TP in the bathrooms, we had to go shopping. Would stay again.
Great place to stay while in Ferndale! Home is very tastefully decorated and well equipped. Walking distance to downtown Ferndale, we would definitely stay again. Only negative were the Buda figures.
