This property was a 10 out of 10. If you want to relax and regroup this home is perfect. My husband and I enjoyed the modern beautifully decorated home. The view. The view. I had to say it twice it was everything. The rain clouds dispersed and we had a starry night wirh a water view. Magnificent. This location will be on repeat.

Book it!
If you’re going to Algonac and are trying to find the “right” place, stop looking and book Graber’s Getaway. The house is spotless, it has everything you need for a short or long stay (well beyond the basics), and is ideally located on the St. Clair River. We stayed between Christmas and New Year and even in Algonac’s “off season” we had a great time.

Unforgettable Stay on The Saint Clair River!!!!!
My family and I rented Graber’s Getaway on Lake Saint Clair. This was our first time staying and boating on the river and it did NOT disappoint. The house was exactly as pictured online….meticulously maintained. To say I am a clean freak is an understatement and this house was SPOTLESS. Everything you would need was there. Beds, showers, kitchen, floors….every inch of the house was glistening clean. Communication with Tammi was seamless and her response times are so quick! We will 100% be staying again and will most definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a place in the area! Thank you so much Tammi for everything!!

Celebrating Sassy 60th with Six Friends
Graber’s Getaway was lovely. Everyone enjoyed the amenities, amazing views of the river and passing freighters. Sitting enjoying the water and sipping our morning coffee and Bailey’s -- Especially through the crystal clean picture windows! The bedrooms are all upstairs and did get a little stuffy at night. Thankful for the Tammy the host having an oscillating fan in the closet! I’m pretty sure a few of my guests will be booking your property in the near future.

Very nice property and location. The street was a little more busy than I thought it would be but I believe that was due to the holiday weekend. But I enjoyed the lakeview and watching the freighters! The kitchen had everything we needed and the property was very clean and nicely decorated. Communication with owner was excellent! Would definitely recommend 😊

A Perfect Home Away from Home!
This lovely property was perfect for our group of five adults. It is located on the St. Clair River and the lake freighters frequently pas s by as they make their way way between Lakes Erie and Huron. The large, airy home is beautifully furnished with a well equipped kitchen, comfortable bedrooms, and immaculate bathrooms (and filled with a thoughtful array of toiletries. The large living room has windows looking directly over the River, a fireplace, and plenty of room to read and chat. The home also has a glass grill on the back porch and a very modern washer and dryer in the basement. Tammi, our host, was a delight. She could not have been more welcoming and helpful. If you choose to stay at this property do not pass up the opportunity to shop at Azar’s Market less than a mile away. The hand cut and personally seasoned steaks are spectacular. Needless to say, we cannot wait to return for another stay.

Great Boatwatching Getaway
We booked a last minute vacation, to celebrate Easter as a Family. Tammi was very accommodating, and very quick to respond to my questions. The house was equally as beautiful as the photos. Everything we needed could be found, and we enjoyed the days watching the freighters and boats go buy, as well as the fishing from the dock. There were 3 couples and the house didn't feel crowded at all. Lots of room for us all, and the 1/2 bath on lower level was very convenient. We hope to be back soon, to enjoy another great stay at Graber's Getaway!

Quiet Property with Amazing Views
The property was exactly like it shows and states. Amazing views of the river and in a quiet area which was perfect for us as a getaway for a wedding. Tammi was great with communication and making sure everything was good for us. Left us some amazing coffee that I am still having each morning.

Honeymoon
We took a short, in state, honeymoon and came across this property. If you enjoy water views and watching the boats go past this is a wonderful location. The house is very clean and well laid out. The kitchen is well appointed and spacious. There are lots of little things that show the owners care. It was just two of us but if it were 6 adults I don't think you'd feel cramped. Great get out of town for the weekend location. We will definitely keep this place in mind for future trips.

Beautiful home with beautiful views!
The home is spotless and has eveything you could need in the way of kitchen supplies, towels, bedding etc. Check-in and check-out was a breeze and the owner is extremely responsive and full of ideas and recommendations. The huge front windows provide a view of the water that cannot be beat. We took a great walk on the nearby trail. And watching the freighters is the best!

Always love our stays at Graber's River Getaway!
This is our second time staying at Graber's River Getaway and the family again had a wonderful time. Tammi is such a wonderful host and really takes great care of her guests. The house was perfectly clean and just how we remembered from our last stay. We spent each morning out at the dock fishing for perch - we caught and released at least 50 during our stay! Go see Ed Minnich's bait shop down the street as he has a perfect setup for fishing off the banks of the river - we'd drop the line in and be reeling in fish within seconds and we barely knew what we were doing haha. Algonac Flaming Grill down the street has excellent food if you're looking for a family diner. There's also the Clay Township splash pad a short drive away that the kids absolutely loved. All in all another wonderful vacation for the family to spend time together making memories! Thanks again for sharing your wonderful house with us Tammi!
