Detroit is the furthest of our regional routes. I-69 north to I-94 east into the city, about 4.5 to 5 hours door to door. Most of the bookings we do up to Detroit are corporate. Visiting executives heading to the GM Renaissance Center, Ford visits from clients in central Indiana, automotive industry meetings, board travel.

The drive itself is mostly highway: Anderson, Muncie, Fort Wayne, then the Michigan state line. We’ll typically build in one stretch break around the Fort Wayne exit. The cabin is set up to work in, so most riders treat the drive as a quiet workday. Phone chargers, bottled water, climate-set cabin. Tell us your route preference at booking and we’ll honor it.

For sports trips, Detroit Tigers, Pistons, and Red Wings games are all part of the regular ask. Same setup as Cincinnati: drop you at the venue, wait nearby, drive you back. The longer round-trip means we’ll quote it slightly differently than a same-day Cincinnati game, but the math is straightforward.
