This house was exactly what we needed and where we needed it to be. It’s very close to all the major things in Bay City/ Saginaw area. There were a couple of issues but management answered every text and phone call and fixed them for us.

We enjoyed our stay except that we did not have hot water for 1 day. This was a big inconvenience because we could not shower. We had great communication with the host and they were able to get it fixed the next morning. I was expecting some kind of a discount or refund, but none was offered. They were great about texting and keeping us up to date on service, but we should have been compensated for no hot water.
This is a great neighborhood and we enjoyed walking around in the evening.

We wanted a place for us, our son and his dog to stay while we celebrated his birthday with family. This house is big, with 4 bedrooms, 4 baths and 2 living areas. Quiet area, lots of room, and a short car ride to everything. It snowed while we were there and the driveway was cleared promptly. Our only complaint is that the 2 beds we used and the couch weren't very comfortable. Otherwise, great stay.
5.0
We loved the house, it was clean and has a lot of space for our group. The property manager was wonderful and easy to work with. We live the location and the layout of the home too. Our only issue was just the single beds in the one room were not comfortable but the others were wonderful. We will come back next year too;)

The house had more than enough room to hold all 9 of us and we never felt like we were stepping on each others toes. The house was clean and the neighborhood was nice and quiet.

Windows would not lock, house unlocked when arrived, AC didn’t work but they had it fixed the same day, linens not clean amongst other things. Property management very respectful and always working to fix things to make a vacation stay.
