Cheerful 3-Bedroom 2-Bathroom Home With Pool
I really enjoyed my stay at the house, it was in a perfect location for me, super easy to find, and simple easy check in and check out, Mateos's was always available if needed and always very responsive to any messages or communication we had during my stay, he was a great host and I would highly recommend staying here and I would certainly stay again if I'm back in the area and the home is available, especially in the summer with the home having a pool, it is winter now and the home was great it would be over the top with the pool in the summer, a great place to stay!

Resort-like getaway on our 1+ acre Southfield home
Worked great for our stay. Thank you!

Chic Retreat - Pool, Hot Tub, and Large Patio
This house was a 10/10. They are clearly pros at hosting. Everything was labeled. They had Tupperware with lids organized! They had enough dishes but not an overwhelming amount. They had kid plates, flatware, high chair and a pack n play! Everything I needed for my two year old. The hot tub was perfect in a quiet backyard. The Bluetooth speakers really set it off. They had really cute design touches throughout. The basement was an added bonus !! Would watch movies and hang out down there a lot! I loved the swing in the kids room. I loved that the headboards had outlets. Every detail was thought of. Thank you.

The Ambassador Estate Inn
John is a friendly, delightful, and helpful host! His house is spacious, fun, and perfect for family gatherings! Highly recommend!

“Detroit Pool House”
Felt right at home host were very responsive and helpful home looks exactly as pictured communication was great and they let me check in early with no problem

👑🌳Grand - Bright New Construction
If you need a house to shield you from Michigan’s winter while you and 10 friends slowly lose your sanity, this is the place! It’s not fancy, but it kept us warm, safe, and mostly civil for a week. The bathrooms? A daily battle of strategy and patience. With 10 people, shower schedules were tighter than a NASA launch, and nothing builds character like doing the “I-have-to-pee” dance while someone takes a 30-minute shower. The kitchen? Big enough to cook for a small army. The living room? Perfect for games, debates, and questioning why we work somewhere with subzero temps. And the basement? Originally a downside, it became the perfect exile for our most outspoken friend—the one who insisted we weren’t making the fire correctly. They got a taste of true winter survival down there. All in all, the house did its job. Would hide from the elements (and annoying friends) here again!

Beautiful Royal Oak - 5 bedroom & Pool Table
Matthew was a very responsive, helpful and accomodating host. He went as far as to give a flexible checkout time when one of our guests had a very late flight home. The Airbnb we rented for a week was great for our group gathering, clean and made it easy to get to various attractions around town.

Long Term Rental *BizTravelers*Families
We were in town for work and we greatly appreciate the accommodations and the comfort of feeling at home. We would definitely stay there again.

Welcome home! Short walk to downtown Ferndale
I stayed here for Valentine’s Day with my boyfriend just to relax and spend time together and this was the perfect place! The home was extremely comfortable and clean and had everything you could possibly need like a true home away from home. We came from Livonia, MI and were unfamiliar with Ferndale, and were so pleased with how extremely safe the community was and how walkable it was even after a snowstorm. Craig was also such a great host, he made everything so easy and always responded in a timely manner. LOVE this place!!! Would absolutely stay again!!

Lakeside escape: Hot tub, fireplace&local wineries
Luminita’s place felt like retreat. Was very clean and welcoming. The bed was very comfortable too. Was perfect for my husband and myself to get away and recharge. The pictures don’t do it justice and the sunsets are magical. Having a cup of coffee in the morning listening to the water is always a nice way to relax. The drive to local recommendations was close and easy. Highly recommend this place; you won’t regret your stay here.

House of a Different Color
Cathy was very helpful and nice even with me messing up the reservation and she was quick to help fix the problem and get us settled in would recommend and will be staying again next time hopefully without me messing up the reservation. Home and back yard was lovely with friendly neighbors!

Lamp Light House - 4 Bedrooms/2.5 baths - 6 Beds!
Great stay for my work trip. The home was comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet. Roy was great and I’ll be back next time in MI.

It was really nice to open the fridge and see a loaf of bread, new bag of milk, new butter and a dozen eggs. There were also water bottles and eggos in the freezer. Disnt expect that, but a nice touch.

Ohana House
Nori was a great host! Very quick to respond and checked in often to make sure it was a comfortable stay.

This was our second stay at Janice’s place, and it was just as great as the first. Great location, quiet neighborhood, felt very safe. Loved the amenities and space — worked very well for my family. Thank you, Janice!

Chatham Century Farm, private, great neighbours
My stay at the Family farmhouse was quiet, cozy and was a very welcoming place to visit again. It's perfect for being in the country which I love for those that do and super close to town for all the amenities and then mins back to the quiet farmhouse which has a big , treed lot to walk around and enjoy

The house had everything a guest needs, plenty spaces to sleep, several rooms, lots of extra chairs, pillow, blankets and bathroom amenities in addition to several TV channel subscriptions. Art was always responsive, friendly and accommodating. I will definitely recommend this place and host and I will definitely contact him back when I go back to area.

Full house, 3 BDR, 2WR, free Parking , extra beds
A beautiful home in a nice quiet neighborhood. The house was even better than the pictures and the host was amazing to work with. This place has everything you need and more! We had a great stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and clean place. I couldn't be happier with the entire transaction!
