We had a nice stay at the marina. There is so much to do in the area (shopping, parks). Would love to come back in the summer when kayaking is in season.
The property was very well done and we felt welcome. We enjoyed the stay and spent hours fishing off the docks right at the place.
It’s a quiet area, and we did not have any concerns.
This is a gem in the area. So much space and meticulously appointed and decorated inside and out. Great as a home base for exploring the area or visiting family. We could not have been happier with our stay here.
Our stay at the cottage was awesome easy access in and out of Lake Erie very clean a lot of room and it was awesome. I would highly recommend it. Emily is very polite and had good conversations with her.
We visited Monroe for the holiday’s, and Emily was an amazing hostess! Her home was cozy and cute, along with the delicious and very convenient coffee and bakery attached. We can’t wait to visit again, this house will be on our list!
The house was perfect for a weekend getaway with friends!
Emily was very accommodating and friendly. She made great recommendations and was very nice to talk to.
I would definitely stay here again!
We had an amazing time here! The property is even better than the photos, and Emily was so kind and responsive to our questions. Comfortable, lots of amenities, and tons of outdoor space. None of us wanted to leave!
Went here for a Birthday weekend with spouse and friends. Clean, well kept, large entertaining space, nice outdoor area, and in a nice location. Highly recommended.
Spent 4 nights with a group of friends on a lake Erie fishing trip. The house was clean and spacious and we were able to keep the boat in the marina right outside the house. Emily was great host!
Very clean, tastefully decorated, and responsive host. Marina and was not as pictured but it was because of the heavy algae, very green, but that is not something the host has control of. Overall great experience.
Emily was very kind. She provided several ideas for local attractions and the rental property was fantastic. Our family gets together a couple of time a year and this rental was one of the best we’ve stay at. Highly recommend it for any one looking for a spacious rental with all the accommodations needed for a great Vacay!
The house was awesome! Very roomy and tons of space and beds. Really big open dining/family/kitchen area with an incredible and large couch, great for hanging out with folks. The place was very clean and had everything you need. Emily was great and the check in/out process was incredibly easy. The location is great right on the marina and very close to Lake Erie. I highly recommend this house!!
My family and I loved this place! Plenty of space for our group of 5 and my dog! It was a very wonderfully decorated and comfortable house with lots of areas inside and out to hang, play games, read, watch football and be together! Loved having the coffee/gift shop next door. It didn’t disrupt us at all. Easy to access Detroit for a tigers game or the state park for some lake time! Would stay here again if in the area!
The place is so nice love how it was decorated.. we rented this place for my sister 60th birthday. She was very happy with it. It was nice. We even got to bring a boat. Management is very very nice.. I would go back there.
Highly recommend. Overall great experience. We had a small issue with a propane tank, and the owner result it immediately. Very nice amenities. Great location. Everyone was very friendly. The coffee shop next-door is wonderful. Fisherman friendly. Will return again next year!
We wanted to find a place that would accommodate our boat and dog and woodchuck marina was above and beyond our expectations. Emily was wonderful!! So accommodating and has done a beautiful job renovating. Yard is fenced in which allowed our dog to be off leash outside. So nice. Beautiful home and yard with a relaxing hot tub after a day on Lake Erie. Would stay again in a heartbeat. Thanks for having us Emily (and Chief). You guys are awesome.
The property was lovely. I did not realize how industrial the area was (haven't been to that part of the state in a while), so not a Pure Michigan type of feel, but the property itself was wonderful. I did not realize there was a store literally connected which was under construction and that should most definitely have been in the listing or communicated. I left the day the painters were there because it was too distracting, but it was only one day. Only other minor nits - the sponge in the kitchen was old and smelled the entire kitchen up upon arrival, but once discarded, it was fine. Everything was clean, just that was missed. Also, we enjoyed the hot tub, but there was a layer of dirt on the seats and bottom so it was not vacuumed out in a while. Great stay overall.
The host, Emily, was very kind and quick to respond if we needed anything. Which we didn’t need much, because she has the home set up so perfectly. It was clean, stocked with whatever we needed, and very cozy. She also decorated for Christmas which was a lovely touch. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
