- Fully stocked kitchen so you have the option to stop at the local grocery store and fix a home-cooked meal for the family
- Free coffee (including decaf and tea) and snacks to get you going on your mornings
- Stylish living room featuring a 55-inch flat screen TV and Amazon firestick to binge your favorite shows
-Large and inviting dining space to gather and eat as a family or group
- A dedicated workspace with a printer for your business and work needs.
- Beautiful master bedroom with closet space and it's own flat screen TV and firestick

- A large, quiet backyard to enjoy the outdoors including a fire pit and chairs for the evening!
- A shed that houses your free bikes is also accessible for those who want to ride around the quiet neighborhood or into town


THINGS TO NOTE:
This vacation home is a duplex, and in the top unit is a quiet, long term tenant. The duplex is set up to where you will have completely private and segregated access to the front porch and entire first floor via the front door. The top tenant has access to the top unit only through a stairwell on the side of the house and does not have a key or password to the VRBO. The tenant will occasionally do laundry in the separate, outdoor access basement as well.

Your free parking is the whole driveway along the entire right side of the house. There is room for 4 cars, OR a car and a boat! This driveway is shared with the house next door but we own about 2/3rds of it so don't worry too much about snugging up your car right against the house. The quiet, long term tenant parks in front of the house all the way to the left.

We listed the amount this VRBO can sleep as 7, however, there is also a trundle bed underneath the bunk bed, as well as a pull-out single sleeper in the master bedroom that folds up like a chair. These would be comfortable for a small child but not practical for an adult, which is why we kept the sleep count at 7. However, if you are booking with many kids, the sleep count could be increased to 9 if the two sleeping in these beds were small children.

The property was very nice. Figuring out the heat was a little tricky but once we got it, it was fine. Slow drain in the bathtub, but other than that everything was great! Highly recommend!

Clean Comfortable Home
Host Aaron & Rebecca were quick to respond to all communications with us. They were very accommodating. Coffee station was set up nicely and had everything we needed to start our day. They even provided a wonderful bakery treat upon our arrival. The neighborhood was nice and we felt very safe. We had 2 small dogs and ran into many neighbors in our daily dog walks. We visit this area yearly to visit family and will stay again if home is available.

Harbourtown comfort
This is a beautiful home in the Harbourtown portion of Vermilion and makes for a very comfortable base while visiting Vermilion. Everything was clean and in order, all the explanations were clear so it was easy to plug into Wi-Fi and a comfortable setting. We had no disappointments, totally enjoyed our stay and plan to come back again.

Nightmare
The house was mispresented. It was filthy. The one tub/shower did not drain. It was slippery and full of water with a 5 min shower. It took an hr to drain. Owner was called and said it would be looked into. Bees were getting into the home from the side siding and were swarming around. The mattresses were terrible. It was not a good stay. I would not recommend staying here until repairs and new mattesses.

Loved this property was perfect location for us and the layout was great for us with little kids! (Kids room at back of house so weren’t woken up by us watching tv etc in the front). Never even heard the renters upstairs! Driveway was great for our truck and jet ski, we loved this play will definitely stay here again!

Summertime at the Lake
We enjoyed our stay in this comfortable, clean unit. It is easy walking distance, 4-5 blocks, from downtown Vermilion, and just another block to the beach. It is in a quiet part of town so it was very relaxing - just what we were looking for. There are several nice restaurants nearby, including some that are good for kids.
