    Mill Pond Realty - Walk to Lake Michigan at Murphy's Landing!

    We used to rent here for years, but this year it went completely downhill. The property we stayed…read moreat had mice droppings in the BED and all over the floor. It was the most disgusting thing ever. They were extremely rude when we complained, and said that rodent droppings are common in their rentals. I've never before or since stayed anywhere with rodent droppings! Also when we complained they literally kicked us out of the property - no apologies or admission of wrongdoing because we were "being threatening" because I asked for a refund for an obvious health hazard in their property. An absolute terrible experience for my daughter's birthday weekend. Would NOT stay at any of their properties.

    Laura Durham bullied and threatened me in the middle of a special weekend I had spent months…read moreplanning. I reached out to Damon at Millpond real estate last fall and told him I was searching for a house on the water for a party of 14 for my oldest sister's bachelorette party in June. We had 30 year old women traveling from Colorado, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, and Tennessee. Other guests were traveling from different parts of Michigan. I was NEVER told that there was a limit to the amount of cars allowed in the driveway, nor was it stated in any contract. On Saturday, I had organized a party bus for a wine tour. My mother, the future mother-in-law, and sister-in-laws joined us for the tour. They were NOT staying in the house. The driveway was full of cars which we took the time to strategically park because we knew parking on the street would be inconsiderate for the neighbors. None of the cars were parked illegally or on the property lawn, nor did they block the street in accordance with the city ordinance. We had no visits from local law-enforcement regarding any type of noise complaint or the cars. I received a call in the early afternoon Saturday (after the cars had been there since Thursday) regarding the cars from someone in Laura's office. I explained the situation to her and why there were so many cars. That should have been the end of it, but apparently the truth was not enough. When we returned back to the house at 5pm I received a call from Laura Durham (along with the male beside her who also had a lot of comments). She was upset with the cars, even though there were less cars than people allowed in the house. She informed me that the community was trying to shut down vacation rentals, and I had to move cars. It seemed like the problem she was presenting to me was misdirected anger because people were upset with HER company. She also threatened to make us leave on the last night of our vacation mentioning we may have to get out of the house entirely if we don't move cars. When I expressed concern about that comment, she shut me down saying "it sounds like you are getting upset with, so I am going to hang up." She was intent on there being a "party" or astronomical amount of people at the house. Laura, you have chosen to be in the rental business. So, unfortunately, if too many cars in a driveway is "spreading like a wildfire" through the community, that is NOT my problem. There was no reason for you to share that with me, in fact the purpose of your multiple calls seemed very unclear. Shame on you for implying that we needed to vacate the property. We drank responsibly with a driver all day, and you wanted us to vacate and/or move our cars for the rental that we paid $6000 for. Most of all, I can't help but wonder if you would have talked to me in the same tone if I had been a man, not a 24 year old woman. You over stepped so many professional boundaries and ruined the final day of my vacation. You end all of this by saying you would be driving by at 1am to essentially stalk the house? I hope you did waste your time driving by the house. Most of us planned on leaving early for long travels home, and you would have found the house dark and quiet with MAYBE the sound of a few breast pumps. I had recommended this company to many others who were eager to book, along with all us women who appreciated the beautiful Studley cottage. After the rude encounter I had with Laura Durham, I will be letting everyone know to NOT book. Also, the house was infested with ants and we had to move our food to cabinets within two hours of being there. I saw a mouse on the property as well.
