Pure Michigan way up north
The property is well cared for and comfortable. My family enjoyed themselves. We liked so much it was within walking distance. A few suggestions though. Let us know pool isn’t heated. It was late afternoon before it warmed up enough to use for us. Would suggest dressers to put belongings in as there weren’t any available. If not, then at least someplace to put suitcases rather than the floor. We would visit again.

Family Vacation
The kitchen was really old and run down. A lot of the drawers would stick and were hard to open. Bathrooms defintely could use some updating. The bedrooms have no closets or dressers to put your cloths in. The pool did not look like the pictures Very old and run down. The neighbors dogs barked alot even at night. Not much to do in West Branch!

Lovely Little Getaway
This lovely property has a inground pool, that is perfect for kids or just hanging out... not much deeper than 5ft at the deepest spot. The "bunkhouse" was amazing, but very warm during the day... definitely bring fans... Can tell that some renovations have been done and may still be in the works, but doesnt affect the coziness of the home! We had a large group of 10 it fit us all comfortably! Communication with property owners was wonderful as well! The only thing that we wished was a bit different or that they should consider is a pool shower or change room outside or in bunkhouse so you dont have to go inside all wet from pool.

Weekend trip with the extended family
Lots of room, space was comfortable and clean. It was nice that everyone had a bed & there was space to spare. The grill, patio & pool are a great feature. (We loved the pool cleaning robot, lol.) Close enough to walk downtown.

Excellent layout for 2 families to share for a weekend of baseball. Close to the fields and downtown restaurants. The pool was a perfect bonus, although the weather didn’t cooperate for the kids to jump in!

Everything You Need For A Great Price
Comfortable beds, everything you need for kitchen and bath, close to everything. We stayed in the winter so couldn't enjoy the other half of the listing, so looking forward to that later this year. Great stay in West Branch. Will stay again.

Family Wedding
Ben was very communicative and accommodating throughout the entire process. He made sure that we had all of the the things necessary to help make my toddler and infant as comfortable as possible (including leaving out an extra pack-n-play, toys, fans, etc.). Having the two separate buildings was very useful to superset the kids with different schedules and keeping the crying infant from waking up the rest of the family. Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

Wonderful Stay
The property was perfect for a weekend getaway! Walking distance to downtown, as well as a few beautiful parks. The pool was awesome and the bomb-fire pit at night made for some extra fun! I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for an easy stay with family or friends.

Relaxing weekend
Never been to West Branch, this was the perfect way to enjoy it. Hung out by the pool first day and was able to quickly walk downtown for dinner at the brewery and caught a movie at the old school theater across the street. Next day we walked around the downtown, went to a few nice antique stores and saw that a pretty big art fair was going on in a park down the street. They had a ton of vendors selling local stuff. Came back in time to sit by the pool and order a pizza. Overall great experience and value.
