Ralaxing relief from the heat

We are Michigan natives now retired and living in FL. After 5 summers there we deciced to take a 2 month break from the FL heat in Michigan. The property is nice, simple, well maintained and the weather was perfect.

A great place to rent for Algonac area vacations

This is our 3rd time renting from Carrie and Jeff and it gets better every time. Its obvious a lot of thought and work is put into the house. Its a great place for us to rent to visit family in the area, and also to come back to afterward to enjoy the peace and quiet on the front porch. Would definitely rent again.

Just Perfect

I was met upon arrival and presented with a dozen fresh eggs from the chickens in the yard. The property is full of large well groomed trees with lovely flower beds. The house was clean and spacious. I was there for my granddaughter’s wedding. The kitchen is large and well equipped, we made 180 cupcakes for the wedding. The large clean garage served as a beauty salon for the bridesmaids. We entertained the new in-laws on the comfy front porch furniture, while we enjoyed the evening breeze. Algonac is a beautiful community and Carrie is a top notch host.

Fish on! (again)

Second stay at this location was just as good as the first. Everything you need, conveniently located, lots of room, well outfitted kitchen, would definitely recommend.

Fish on!

What a great alternative to staying in a nearby hotel - 5 minutes from the boat launch and dairy queen, both of which we used daily. Large beds in each bedroom, very clean place overall. Quiet neighborhood - no issues on any front - owner(s) were very responsive on text - great value, it's a pretty big place - renting again this weekend and am so glad we aren't hoteling it.

Nice relaxing experience!

Comfortable. That is the best word to describe this house. We stayed for 2 weeks and felt at home on day one. Nothing fancy, nothing new but everything you could need to live, cook and relax. It is close to everything from Anchor Bay to Marine City. We will stay again. Thanks, Jeff and Carrie!

St Clair Fishing Trip

Great trip. The house owners Carrie and Jeff are wonderful people. The house is extremely clean. Plenty of parking for 21 ft bass boats, short distance from house to 2-boat ramps. Jeff even supplied the frying equipment and propane for our outdoor fish fry. We supplied the fish!

The home was clean, well stocked & cared for. We had no problems it was exactly as pictured.

The home had a relaxing front porch area & great Kitchen. It was close to everything in Algonac & was exactly what we were looking for. Carrie was very quick to respond to questions. If we happen back that way, would stay again. Thanks Carrie we had a great time.

Quiet, relaxing place with great front and back porches

We stayed here while visiting family on Russell Island. Very conveniently located to the ferry, and a nice quiet place to come back to each evening. Both the front and back porches are great to sit on an enjoy the quiet surroundings. Clean and new inside, and the owner is right next door to help with anything. Would happily go back.
