Great place to stay

We decided to rent this house because all the hotels were booked for the football weekend. We actually liked it better than all the other hotels that jacked up their rates over three times there normal amounts for the weekend. We were able to go to the game just 50 yards from the Big House. Loved it there and the rates were the regular price. Thank you for the great experience!

Comfortable home in Ann Arbor

This charming older home was the perfect place for my sisters and I to meet up for a girl's weekend. We enjoyed the interesting restaurants and shopping nearby, and the home was great for just hanging out and catching up -- clean and comfortable with modern kitchen and bath. Lovely large windows throughout the house, with good shades/ curtains for privacy from the street and neighbors when needed. Janice was a communicative host and check in and check out were straightforward and no fuss. We really enjoyed our stay!

Unbelievable location for U of M Ann Arbor Stay

My son and I stayed at this house for a couple days for a recruiting trip to Michigan. "Close to the Big House" is an understatement. It was literally three houses down from the Big House. You could easily walk there or two the baseball/softball fields. The house is very clean and is Maize and Blue throughout. There is a very small fridge but enough for a few day stay. All of the rooms are clean and the heat worked well for us. The communication from the owner was great...entry into the place was easy. I would absolutely stay here again if I went to Ann Arbor for a stay. Easy five star review...
