Relaxing Stay in Monroe
My family and I loved this place! Plenty of space for our group of 5 and my dog! It was a very wonderfully decorated and comfortable house with lots of areas inside and out to hang, play games, read, watch football and be together! Loved having the coffee/gift shop next door. It didn’t disrupt us at all. Easy to access Detroit for a tigers game or the state park for some lake time! Would stay here again if in the area!

Fun fishing spot and great stay
The property was very well done and we felt welcome. We enjoyed the stay and spent hours fishing off the docks right at the place. It’s a quiet area, and we did not have any concerns.

Beautiful and comfortable
Our family loved Emily's house....the little store, the house itself, the backyard overlooking the marina. The place is spacious and beautifully decorated. We grilled out for the 4th of July and had a wonderful time. The marina is currently somewhat stagnant, but we took the kayaks out to the lake anyway and had a great time. Thanks so much.

Great House and location!
The house was awesome! Very roomy and tons of space and beds. Really big open dining/family/kitchen area with an incredible and large couch, great for hanging out with folks. The place was very clean and had everything you need. Emily was great and the check in/out process was incredibly easy. The location is great right on the marina and very close to Lake Erie. I highly recommend this house!!

We wanted to find a place that would accommodate our boat and dog and woodchuck marina was above and beyond our expectations. Emily was wonderful!! So accommodating and has done a beautiful job renovating. Yard is fenced in which allowed our dog to be off leash outside. So nice. Beautiful home and yard with a relaxing hot tub after a day on Lake Erie. Would stay again in a heartbeat. Thanks for having us Emily (and Chief). You guys are awesome.

Emily was very kind. She provided several ideas for local attractions and the rental property was fantastic. Our family gets together a couple of time a year and this rental was one of the best we’ve stay at. Highly recommend it for any one looking for a spacious rental with all the accommodations needed for a great Vacay!

Lovely time!
The property was lovely. I did not realize how industrial the area was (haven't been to that part of the state in a while), so not a Pure Michigan type of feel, but the property itself was wonderful. I did not realize there was a store literally connected which was under construction and that should most definitely have been in the listing or communicated. I left the day the painters were there because it was too distracting, but it was only one day. Only other minor nits - the sponge in the kitchen was old and smelled the entire kitchen up upon arrival, but once discarded, it was fine. Everything was clean, just that was missed. Also, we enjoyed the hot tub, but there was a layer of dirt on the seats and bottom so it was not vacuumed out in a while. Great stay overall.

Great location in the Marina
This location is absolutely perfect for a family gather or a large group to stay. There was more then enough room for everyone in my party to have their own space. The common area is a great layout for everyone to talk, play board games, or just have a meal together. Emily, the host, is very responsive and made sure we were all set to go.

Perfect family stay
My family and I were in town to celebrate my grandmother's birthday. This house was the perfect place to stay. There was plenty of space and in a great location. If we had more time, we would have taken the kayaks out on the water. But we were able to try out some of the local restaurants like the Sandbar. Emily was always extremely responsive and helpful whenever we needed something or had a question. I just wish we had known that the store is attached to the house and is under construction. Also, there were lots of mayflies. But overall, a great place to stay!

Emily is a great hostess! She’s put together a beautiful cottage, with all the modern amenities, really comfy beds & a relaxing atmosphere. Had the weather cooperated (smoke from Canadian fires & strong thunderstorms) this would’ve been the best vacation we’ve had in a long time! We’ll definitely be back!

Great family stay!
My siblings and I stayed here while visiting the area for our grandfather's memorial. It was convenient, spacious, clean and modern. We are a loud group and were out most of the day so the construction on the exterior didn't bother us but for a quiet goup with very young children it may be noisy. 5 year olds had a blast in the yard and others could easily take a quick spin in the kayaks for some fishing. We had a great stay!
