Lovely trip to the river.

Had a wonderful stay here. The house was very nice and clean. I was able to get my boat in the driveway and went fishing a few times. Mom loved the front windows of the house and the tremendous view of the river - and she loves watching the freighters.Will consider booking a longer stay next year!

Wonderful Weekend

We had such a nice weekend. The home is beautiful and spotless, and everything is there that you could possibly need. The best part was seeing the ships go by - even in the winter. We will definitely stay here again, but next time we’ll stay longer!

We stayed here for a week and the listing was everything advertised. Clean, well maintained home with all the basics supplied to make it feel like you never left your own home. Owner was very professional and not over-communicative. If you're looking for a vacation rental you won't be disappointed.

Lovely spot for a getaway

Great opportunity to view the passing Great Lakes freighters, as well as watch the birds gather on the river. This house is well set up, and has all those little extras that makes a stay easier. We cooked a lot and had everything we needed. Lots of towels, comfy afghans in the living room, ziplock bags in case you need those… just very thoughtfully outfitted. We enjoyed the local area too - Marine City is fun to poke around in.

Lovely Stay!

The host of this property provided everything we needed, even thoughtful details like binoculars to watch the water traffic and flashlights in each nightstand. We enjoyed playing the board games which were provided, watching freighters, strolling on the neighborhood walking/biking path, and going to the nearby beach. I had some trouble with VRBO; this trip never showed up in my account, but the host made everything work seamlessly.

Great View

Our family had a wonderful time staying at this property. The view of the river and watching the freighters go by was spectacular. The house was very clean, well stocked and Tammi was very responsive on my questions before we booked. My only comment for those towing a boat, backing in the driveway was doable but tight. You might check that out if you are bringing a boat. Having said that we would stay here again.

An A+ Property and Experience!

Graber's Getaway was everything it promised to be! A splendid, exceptionally clean property with comfortable beds and all the amenities of home. The snacks, coffee and can "koozies" were a delightful and thoughtful touch. The view of the river (catch the sun rise!) and neighboring Canada from the comfort of a plush chair, while having morning coffee, was the epitome of relaxation. And the freighter traffic was an experience not to be missed: totally amazing! Thank you Tammi for sharing your wonderful home: wish we could have stayed longer!

Unforgettable Stay on The Saint Clair River!!!!!

My family and I rented Graber’s Getaway on Lake Saint Clair. This was our first time staying and boating on the river and it did NOT disappoint. The house was exactly as pictured online….meticulously maintained. To say I am a clean freak is an understatement and this house was SPOTLESS. Everything you would need was there. Beds, showers, kitchen, floors….every inch of the house was glistening clean. Communication with Tammi was seamless and her response times are so quick! We will 100% be staying again and will most definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a place in the area! Thank you so much Tammi for everything!!
