De Tour Village
Enjoyed staying in Gary’s house. The beds were comfortable, bathrooms were clean and the eclectic furnishings were nice. We really enjoyed the porch! Just sitting there, watching the ferry go back and forth to Drummond Island and especially the big ships quietly passing by. The sunrise is especially beautiful. It was a relaxing visit.

Beautiful house
I love this clean, older home and all of its character. I love the layout, the beautiful porch view of the sunrise and sunset. The location was perfect for access to the island. The owner was very friendly and we will definitely stay there again next year, if its available.

Perfect!
This property was just what are group needed for our "Drummond Island" weekend! It was within walking distance to grocery store, restaurants, and bars. The porch was very comfortable and offered a spectacular view of Lake Huron. It was also very well supplied with the necessities. I would definitely recommend this property and would stay here again!

Really Nice Stay
Plenty of space. Complimentary wifi. The host has a really nice binder of information introducing you to DeTour and telling you what's around to help you make the best of your stay. Very easy check in/out process and a responsive, great host. Would recommend.

Excellent relaxing location
House was perfect equipped with everything you needed. Loved the extra towels. Spacious comfortable and relaxing. Nice getaway. Local stores are very cute. Pubs solid and local ppl very friendly.

Loved the house, views, and town
We loved staying in this house. We spent a lot of time on the front porch, watching the freighters and ferries on the river. Great location in the village, we could walk to restaurants, Pickleball courts or down to the marina. The dining room is also a very nice feature with lots of windows so you can watch the boats while you’re eating if it’s too cold to eat outside. Lots of activities nearby, including hiking and fishing, as well as visiting Drummond Island and nearby towns like Cedarville. The kitchen was well equipped and thoughtfully stocked with herbs and spices as well as pots, spans and small appliances. We had a very comfortable bed in the master bedroom on the first floor. Both bedrooms on the first floor, had ceiling fans, but the upstairs Bedrooms did not have ceiling fans and they got stuffy even with daytime highs in the mid 70s. It would be nice if there was a bathroom upstairs so people don’t have to come downstairs during the night. Some of us use the bathroom in the basement for showers.

Awesome Relaxing Views
This property was a perfect for for our 3 generation adventure in the Eastern UP. The views from the covered porch were so good, and comfortable. The Unit was clean and well appointed. Our day trips were fun and easy with this home base to look forward to. Highly recommend this place and the relaxed vibe in this area.

Detour Passageview
We enjoyed our stay at the cottage in Detour Village. I never know what things to bring with us for a rental, but I needn’t have worried. The whole house is beautiful and well stocked with all the necessary items for a week’s stay. Aside from the actual food items, which we brought with us, the kitchen had a wonderful assortment of coffees and teas. There was a very nice stock of spices and oils. Of course there was every kind of pot and pan needed for cooking. The bathroom was well stocked with the usual necessities and even a first aid kit. To top all this off, the view from the front porch is amazing! We love watching the freighters go up and down the St. Mary’s River to and from the Soo Locks. All in all, it was a wonderful, relaxing stay - and we would do it again!

Perfect for our needs
Very nice house across the street from the harbor. Great view of the passing freighters from the wrap around porch. Only a couple restaurants in town, so cooking meals in the kitchen was great. Very spacious with a big kitchen, dining room, living room plus the bedrooms and bathrooms. Owner was great to work with. Highly recommend!

Bucket list trip
The house was clean and well stocked. Location couldn’t be better, only 2 blocks to the boat landing. Came to catch some Atlantic salmon and we succeeded. Gary was a great guy and very accommodating.
