Just a quick word on the measures we are currently taking regarding this time and the COVID-19 virus. After every guest stay we are disinfecting all heavy traffic surfaces (door knobs, faucets, remotes, cabinet handles, fridge handles, etc). Also all linen, weither used or not, is washed, sanitized, and changed. We are doing all we can to ensure your stay is a safe stay. If you need anything else please don't hesitate to ask.

Two bedrooms feature queen beds and flat screen TV's while the third bedroom is complete with two twin beds. A large well stocked modern kitchen with dishes to bake, heat a frozen pizza, make some spaghetti or to just relax in with a glass of wine. Along with a comfy living room with amble seating, a flat screen TV and DVD player is perfect for everyone to enjoy a quiet evening after a day of exploring all of the amazing wonders the Eastern Upper Peninsula has to offer.

If bringing you pet with you just be mindful when your in the backyard. While large, it is not fenced in. So please try and keep your pet out of the neighbors yard. While in the home please keep let off of furniture and we recommend crating if left at the home unattended. We will leave bags at the home for picking up the yard after your pet.

Great location, perfect home

This home was perfect for our group of 3 adults. It was convenient to everything. When I saw on the map how close it was to the highway, I was concerned about noise but we could not hear any highway traffic. The beds were super comfortable too.

Overall our stay was very nice. Not sure I would stay in St. Ignace again due to the 4 bridge toll. I lost count how many times we paid that toll. The house was in a nice, quiet area and clean. It was challenging having 5 women staying in a home with only one bathroom, but we made it work. The mirrors on the back of two of the doors helped. The only change I would suggest would be for the mattresses and pillows, they were not comfortable. Also, if you want to cook, the kitchen is not well stocked.

Nice house in St. Ignace

This house is a very short drive to the main street that has the marina, ferries, shopping, and food. When you drive up to the property it does need some TLC but the inside is very cute and clean. They have upgraded the fire pit to a gas fire pit and we really enjoyed it. We cooked a meal one night and they had everything we needed to prepare it. All in all it was a great trip and I can't wait to go back for another vacation.

Perfect stay

5 star stay. Communication was very quick. The house was well stocked. The owners thought of everything for a relaxing visit to St Ignace. The location was very convenient to the docks to board a ferry to Mackinac Island. The beds were comfortable with plenty of extra linens if needed. The WiFi was strong. We appreciated the special items left for us. We would definitely stay again.

This was very nice clean place. It was a little far from downtown. We had to drive, but not far. It worked great for us. FYI to the owner, could have used some extra coffee cups and a baking sheet with raised sides.

Enjoyed our stay

We booked this house for one of the busiest weekends of the year: St. Ignace Classic Car Show. We were very impressed with cleanliness and sanitary condition of the house. It was spotless! Had family over for food on the grill and enjoyed the backyard. The host left us a bottle of wine which we enjoyed sitting around the firepit on a chilly evening. Thank you to our host. Very comfortable home.....

Sadly...

First of all...Moran was home to all four of us. On out trip to St. Ignace in the UP. Your VRBO was a perfect fit for us and conveniently located. However, your cleaning staff are not doing you justice. Below the kitchen sink on the floor was a large amount of coffee grounds. The dishwasher and refrigerator were sticky and nasty. Dust and cobweb's were plenty. The bedroom on the left, between the sheets were full of people & pet hair. We had to purchase sheets to use this bed. Why have a decorative tissue holder with an empty carton?! The living room TV looked like a 5yo wiped it down. We had no use of any of the 3 TV's, all four of us attempted, maybe instructions for use would be a suggestion. We had no Wi-Fi. The piece of indoor/outdoor carpet on top of the floor upon entering the home is very slippery, my sister Cindi Erskine fell to her knees carrying in our things when the carpet slid. The snow removal guy was there promptly to do snow maintenance. The home was great-just not clean. TY
