It's located in the cutest neighborhood—very safe and just a short distance from downtown. I especially loved the "stone living room" because it was incredibly cozy and inviting. While it was a bit cold, my husband and I still enjoyed sitting in the back yard every once in a while as well.

When we were picking a Detroit vacation rental, we wanted a location that was safe, quiet and friendly. This area goes beyond that. It's idyllic. There are folks walking their dogs along the sidewalks, kids playing ball in the yards, neighbors mowing with nearly silent electric mowers, houses decorated for Halloween halfway through September. An ice cream truck went by. The house layout would be quirky in a new house, but is perfect for the 30's vibe - which has thankfully been maintained even as the place has been tastefully updated so that everything works. We can't wait to come back! ##### Daniel S.

It made our stay so much cozier than if we had stayed in a hotel. I was able to bring my aging dog as well--the back sunroom den was perfection, as it had direct access to the backyard. Each of us had our own room, 2 sharing a bathroom on main floor, one in the master upstairs. Charming, clean, very user-friendly in regards to access, communication with property management (trash etiquette), as well as full access to laundry, A/C controls, and locked access. The neighbors were kind, helpful, pointing out local dog parks; being able to walk to a dozen of adorable coffee/tea joints was a boon. Great, quiet street, easily accessible, felt secure and relaxed. Older starter home with a posse of smaller stairs, but nothing that was too strenuous. It was easy to find separate areas to decompress throughout the home and back patio/back balcony. Such a treat! ##### Allison B.

Plenty of parking and space. 6 adults had no problems with running into each other or taking showers. Nicely appointed. Beds were fantastic. Cleaner than most 4 or 5 star hotels that I've ever stayed in. Plenty of space for kids. Excellent communication from the owner. If you aren't familiar with the area it's nice and you'll feel safe. Walking distance to downtown royal oak, the fresh approach market is also excellent and within walking distance. Rent this one, you'll be glad you did.

My friends and I stayed here for the weekend and we seriously couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. It was absolutely beautiful! So clean, had charging plates on every floor, so many extra pillows & blankets - fully stocked with everything you could ever need. I highly recommend if you're staying in the Royal Oak area! 10/10 :) ##### Hailey K.

It was a perfect base of operations for us to run day trips in Royal Oak and the surrounding area with two small children. The neighborhood was quiet and conveniently located. I wish we had a bit more time to enjoy the property amenities, especially outdoors. My wife and I did really enjoy cozying up on the couch in the back den after the kids went to bed and caught up on some shows. Internet was great and came in handy as we both had to work on and off throughout. Had an all-around amazing time! ##### Jerry R.
