We are local family of six who had to be out of our house for a week for construction. I am so glad we found this house! The beds were so comfortable. The location was convenient to all the freeways. The kitchen had everything we needed. The game, sauna, and hot tub room was amazing! I would absolutely book this house again (girls weekend, staycation, out of town family, etc.) Ashley was very responsive and a pleasure to rent from. Highly recommend.

Wedding Weekend was a success!

We stayed at Blue Skye for my son’s wedding weekend. Everything was wonderful. The place is modern, spacious and spotless! We were 10 adults and little ones and we had plenty of room for all we needed. The host Ashely is THE BEST - she even brought us over a high chair within the hour. We highly recommend.

Perfect Girls Weekend Retreat!

A true retreat! The entire home was setup perfectly for our group of 10 ladies. The spa amenities rec room was exactly what we needed. The home more than comfortably accommodated our group of 10 ladies from dining to sleeping to catching up. It really felt like we were at a destination location vs 30min from home. Ashley was wonderful to work with from pre-booking to trip completion. Highly recommend!

40th Birthday

Blue Skies Retreat was definitely the retreat we all needed. Loved the attentiveness of the host prior to the stay. Retreat was cleaned and well prepared for our arrival. Plenty of towels and blankets for those that get cold. We loved the decor as you really felt like you escaped from life. I truly enjoyed my weekend there and will keep this as an option to one day return when I need to escape reality for a couple days.

Wedding Staging House

Ashley was wonderful with quick replies to all questions. House was clean and well designed. The spa/retreat area was the best both for activity (hot tub, sauna, "shuffle" area), comfortable and very open. We used it for our tea ceremony and staging area prior to the wedding. The dining area a great and perfect for our party of 8. Thank you!!

Relaxing Extended Family Getaway

This house was perfect for an extended family reunion getaway. It was clean and big enough for the 14 of us with their 5 bedrooms and 4 baths. The kids loved the hot tub and some of the adults took advantage of the sauna. This house allowed us to have together time, prepare and have a large family meal, and also retreat to our own spaces/quiet corners, if we needed some 1-on-1 or alone time. This made my mother-in-law very happy to have all her sons and families together for the holiday season.

Fantastic experience!

Ashley’s property was just what we needed to host out-of-town guests for a family event nearby. The space had absolutely everything we needed during our stay, and the hot tub was icing on the cake! Ashley was quick to respond both before booking and during our reservation. She went the extra mile and ordered extra bedding for us, just in case our large group needed it. All of our out-of-town guests raved about the property, and local family who dropped by asked for the link so they could book it themselves. This was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish!

We chose this location because it was centrally located to Detroit, its suburbs, and Ann Arbor. We were not disappointed. The neighborhood was quiet with easy access to all the major highways on the west side. The house was spotlessly clean when we arrived. All the amenities were in excellent condition, from the tableware to the hot tub. The furnishings and appliances were high quality and spacious. We made good use of all that the great room had to offer. We enjoyed being able to relax in the sauna and the hot tub. We appreciated the nice TV and the professional shuffleboard table. The kitchen and dining room offered plentiful working and dining area. The bedrooms were nicely appointed. Ashley, the host, was quick to respond to our communications.

Great property for multigenerational family except for the air conditioning

Beautiful home, lots of room to spread out, well stocked and clean. Ashely the property manager is very communicative. I couldn’t give 5 stars because of the air conditioning. It doesn’t cool the second floor and the large industrial fans in each bedroom room are noisy and don’t solve the issue. Unfortunately, that caused some very uncomfortable sleeping conditions for most of our family.

We had a perfect stay! We are a local family that needed to move out of our home for a week for renovations. The location is good for freeway access. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. The house and kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. The game room was an enjoyable addition to our stay. The beds were very comfortable! Ashley was very responsive. WiFi was fantastic too.

I cannot express enough how much we enjoyed this property. It was beyond expectations and was super turn key, plenty of space for everyone to enjoy each others company, and all the appliances we needed to stay. Beyond expectations in terms of super responsive communication, before during and after our stay. If you are considering this location, do not hesitate! Book now!

The home was large, clean and inviting. It accommodated our large group and some extras for Thanksgiving. The kitchen had everything we could possibly need. There were lovely little touches like a variety of teas and honey. The amenities like the hot tub and sauna were great for the whole group, plus the fireplaces add a cozy touch. These things were well maintained and worked perfectly every time. We would definitely return!

Great Space

I rented this place for a tradeshow that my colleagues and I were going to be working. This place is huge with lots of entertainment space. I wish I would’ve come here for personal instead of business so I could’ve enjoyed the house more. If you have a large group, this place is absolutely perfect. It’s large enough to where people can spread out, but still be together..
