Dog friendly! Have tickets to Michigan Football, an EMU game or event, or other plans in the Ann Arbor/Ypsi/Detroit area? Stay at our relaxing retreat away from the hubbub but close to everything. Entire second floor of a historic house (built in 1898) on a quiet street two blocks from EMU. One block from express bus to Ann Arbor (30 min. to U-M’s Central Campus). Two bedrooms with queen beds (new memory foam mattresses), sunny living room, dining room (seats 4), fully equipped kitchen with new appliances, office nook off the living room. Approx 1000 sq ft. Free off-street parking for 2 cars behind the house. Great restaurants and cafes within walking distance. Your hosts are two U-M professors who live in the apartment part-time during the academic year. ACCESS NOTES: For any folks with mobility challenges, please note that our unit is on the 2nd floor and requires climbing a flight of stairs to enter/exit. The back stairs (from parking area) are narrow and steep; the front stairs (from street) are wider and easier to climb. Also, the toilet in the bathroom is standard (rather than “comfort height”) and might be difficult for those who prefer a taller seat. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - Handrails in stairways - Hardwood flooring in public areas - Smooth flooring in public areas - Tile flooring in public areas - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Gym ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bulk dispensers for toiletries - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Eco-friendly toiletries - No plastic coffee stirrers - No plastic drinking straws - No plastic soft drink bottles - Recycling - Reusable cups - Reusable tableware - Unit size: 1,000 square feet - Water-efficient showers ## Similar properties ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113540000/113530800/113530785/a5d2c9c2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Birmingham Retreat - Relax & Enjoy Birmingham - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-29&endDate=2026-01-30&selected=113530785&PinnedHotelID=113530785&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV, offices](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103950000/103944800/103944777/fcceb659.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming Rochester Retreat Cozy & Stylish Stay Rochester Hills - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.6 Exceptional 4 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-29&endDate=2026-01-30&selected=103944777&PinnedHotelID=103944777&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV, offices](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103950000/103944800/103944735/f2e8b699.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Spacious & Stylish Stay in Rochester, Prime Spot Rochester Hills - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 11 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-29&endDate=2026-01-30&selected=103944735&PinnedHotelID=103944735&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV, offices](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/105000000/104810000/104804600/104804547/71d580ae.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stylish & Modern Unit Prime Location & Comfort Rochester Hills - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.0 Wonderful 17 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-29&endDate=2026-01-30&selected=104804547&PinnedHotelID=104804547&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103950000/103944800/103944758/4f95cca8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Urban Oasis Sleek, Cozy & Well-Located Rochester Hills - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.8 Exceptional 22 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-29&endDate=2026-01-30&selected=103944758&PinnedHotelID=103944758&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90950000/90942000/90941941/d617750d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Updated 5 bedroom ranch w/fenced in yard and 100"+ projector near downtown!
