Welcome to the Huron River retreat! We have 100’ on the Huron River! We have a fire pit, 4 kayaks, a canoe and a dock! This apt. in this historical quadplex has 3 bedrooms, 1 bath with 1 King & 2 queen bedrooms! The location is PERFECT! You are right off the freeway and within walking distance to many conveniences! Detroit is about 20 minutes away/Monroe is about 15 minutes-1/2 hr. from Toledo & less than 5 miles from Beaumont Hospital & Fermi! CLOSE TO METRO PARK, STATE LAND, HUNTING/FISHING! The space We've just added a beautiful 10' x 14' gazebo with two picnic tables down by the river for our guests to enjoy! WE NOW HAVE DIRECT TV STREAMING CABLE!! Go to the Roku Home Screen and go to the Direct Tv app!! We’ve also updated our Wi-Fi! There are now a total of three televisions. Both the king bedroom and the queen off of the kitchen now have televisions in addition to the living room. We just love how convenient the quadplex is! It’s the best of both worlds! The backyard has a very “up North” feel. There is all kinds of wildlife including geese, ducks, groundhogs, and many deer that come into the yard! Right across the river is state land-it’s great to go across the river and explore the woods! Our parking lot for this historic quadplex can accommodate a boat; we occasionally have many fishermen in, so if you’re bringing a boat, just inquire at booking. It’s only 10 miles from Fermi!! You have two parking spaces. You are right by Pointe Mouillee State Game Area and Lake Erie Metropark! Bring your bikes for some wonderful trails! GREAT FISHING!! However, you are two doors away from a Marathon convenience store, three doors away from The River Village restaurant-GREAT food at very good prices, especially their early bird breakfast, and about a half mile away from the local Huron River Inn, a charming little local bar with very reasonable food prices! The renovated apartment has three bedrooms. It's approximately 1100 sf! The living/dining/kitchen Area has new gray bamboo flooring. We have 2 mid-century modern recliners and a comfy brown leather sofa!! There’s a 43” Roku tv with Netflix. The bathroom has been completely renovated. There is a panoramic view of the river from the living area. The kitchen has plenty of pots and pans and we hope that you will find all of the essentials that you need. Please feel free to ask any questions! You are welcome to use our kayaks, however, you must take full responsibility for them and put them back the way that you found them. Experienced kayakers only. You must let us know when you’re taking them out and take a picture of them upon their return. All outdoor amenities are first come, first served; there are four total apartments. The paddle boat is not available. The current is usually too strong for it. Please spray down the kayaks upon their return. Please be aware that you are on a relatively busy street, and although the yard feels as though you’re up north, the road traffic can get noisy. However, we’ve added really nice white noise machines to all three bedrooms! There are settings on them. Please make sure you choose “stay on.” Please also be aware that this is on the second story and the stairs are high and steep. Extra blankets are in the closets. We have many feather/down pillows. If you have allergies more regular pillows are in the master bedroom closet. We’re told that the building is the original general store! It is a very large old building and it was renovated into four condos/apartments. Consequently, it’s not a typical building and there are no shared walls. There is a hallway separating all the units. However, please still be conscious that others are in the building. FYI, We are still working on landscaping. Please note that code requires that all smoke detectors to be hard-wired and all apartments are inter-connected, i.e., if one sets off, they all do. Boaters: make sure that you contact us in advance to make arrangements on where to park your boat. We do have outdoor shore power. If you have an extra vehicle in addition to your boat and truck, depending on how full we are, you may have to park on the street across the street. It’s about a half a block away. AIRBNB RATINGS: We strive for 5 stars for our guests. We humbly request that as a guest, you make your needs/wants known and allow us to make everything as comfortable and convenient as possible. Please be aware that Airbnb ratings are not the same as hotel ratings. 4's are considered unacceptable. Please allow us the opportunity to rectify any issue. We pride ourselves on our customer service. Of course, if we don't respond or care for your needs, we would certainly expect to be marked down. Additionally, please do not mark us down for things that we state in the ad, such as the fact that we are on a busy street or that the stairs are high and steep. Most importantly, please enjoy the beautiful river and our guest spaces as much as we hope you will!! Your hosts, Paul and Elayne Petrucci Guest access You are free to use the kayaks without deposit or payment, but please put them back and be VERY CAREFUL. Please rinse them off after use. You also must let us know when you take them out and take a pic upon return. We ask that only ADULTS go into the basement! It’s a storage and work area and has many tools and such and it’s not necessarily safe for children. Please do not use the laundry facilities between the hours of 11 am and 4 pm when housekeeping will need to have access to it. Also, please provide your own laundry soap; it will be too difficult to keep track of and we need to make sure we have it for check outs. Other things to note The steps going up are high and steep. This is a waterfront property. Please watch your children at all times. Bring bug spray! We do have it professionally sprayed, but by law, they can’t get within 20 feet of the river, so there are still many mosquitoes. Please be aware that the apartments are being worked on and there may be materials/supplies, etc., in the back hallways and basement areas. Again, we are on a relatively busy street, although the back yard feels as though you’re up north. Many guests aren’t bothered by this, but be aware of it. We let you know, and we’ve added white noise machines. I’m uncertain what more we can do. We humbly request that you not mark us down because of it. Note that the wall air-conditioner is also a heater. The fireplace is an additional heater; the switch is on the bottom under the metal door. Push on the door at the top to open it, and push the toggle switch to turn it on. You may adjust the boiler baseboard heat by the thermostat. Additionally, we have new wooden, cordless blinds. Please raise or lower by gently pulling from the bottom. FYI, the large one in the kitchen is more easily lowered by having one person on each side. You will have to pull firmly, however, the rod opens and closes the blinds without raising or lowering it. There’s a saucer chair in the master bedroom closet if you want an extra seat. Guests: Please be aware that although we strictly prohibit any form of indoor smoking, guests will smoke outside. In Michigan, marijuana is legal. You could encounter guests smoking outside. Smokers-please be mindful of other guests. Thank you!
