Affordable, quiet, comfortable. Very nice space. We have family nearby and it’s always hard to find an affordable place to stay as hotels are more expensive and not as comfortable.

The nearby trains are not loud, just a soothing clickity clack if you listen hard. This was only a overnight stay, but the Inn would be great for long term. If you forgot a necessity, there is a Walmart just a mile away. We travel to northern Michigan frequently, and this is our new stay. ##### Sally M.

Two bedrooms. One bed sits up pretty high. Tvs in each room.. love seat reclines and couch is comfy. Big backyard for animals.(not fenced) This property sits behind the owners home. You can see another neighbors back porch but its far and blocked by the sheds. Still very private given the area. 5 mins from Wal-Mart was nice for groceries. Washer and dryer is always nice to have. My biggest live was them having cleaning towels and supplies on hand. Many placed just provide white towela. This is ready for apills or accidents. I would stay here again. Id say the house would sleep 7\. One bedroom with the high bed is pretty small tho. Thamk you! ##### Ivy S. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa S. Jun 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean, Comfy & Cozy! My fiancé, daughter and two pups stayed two nights at the Choo Choo Inn. We were in the area for a softball tournament for our daughter. The house is located in a very quiet area. Communication and flexibility of host was superb and check-in/arrival was smooth. The home was EXTREMELY CLEAN inside and out. Our daughter took a nap on the couch and said it was her best nap ever because it was so comfortable. Our mattresses in both bedrooms were great for us and so comfortable, we got great sleep both nights. The air conditioner works GREAT! Having access to washer/dryer as well as a full kitchen, coffee bar and plenty of extra towels and linen without asking was a plus! The outdoor furniture was clean and comfy. There were citronella table top pieces which were great while enjoying outside. Our dogs went with us and they have never been as calm and content away from our home as they were at the Choo Choo Inn. The sounds coming from the tracks were actually soothing and very quiet & only heard when outside. The snacks upon arrival were an added bonus! There is a Walmart and gas station about 5 minutes away. Warren is an AMAZING host and is prompt to answer any question/communication. We were able to meet him and he was wonderful with our fur babies as well. We WILL ABSOLUTELY stay again if back in the area. Thank you for sharing your home and for a great weekend stay at your beautiful place! ##### Melissa S. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristin D.
