We enjoyed our stay, the home was exactly as described. It is an older home but nicely appointed. Some details on the house and area: Our kids (17,15,12,8) played basketball at the park which is within sight of the home, it also has a pretty good skating park so if they are into that, they will love it, they also met other kids that were traveling in the area. The neighborhood is a quiet residential neighborhood, with friendly neighbors (one of which, has a beautiful flower garden). We had parking for both vehicles in the back of the house in the alley area, which gives you access to the backyard. The kids had no problem with streaming on the TV's and the WIFI. One thing to note, the coffee maker when we stayed, was a drip coffee maker. So if you are particular, you may want to bring what you use at home. We had all the dishes and pans for cooking, even Tupperware for food storage. The refrigerator was nice and large, with no ice maker, but trays were already filled up when we arrived, a nice little gift from the brewing company was stocked when we arrived :) We walked to the coffee shop for coffee, the downtown is charming and friendly. The host left a nice binder with area maps and guides, we found that very helpful. You may want to take a few minutes to review the area and all the information. The beaches are clean and easy to get to, you can either drive if you have gear or walk and sit on one of the benches/swings along the boardwalk and enjoy the sunrise/sunset. We drove to Sleeping Bear for hiking and had a beautiful drive. The Point Betsie Lighthouse is worth checking out in our opinion, make sure to check out the tour times so you can walk up to the top and enjoy the view. I had great communication with the host and she was very accommodating. Thank you for a great stay!
