Gorgeous house

The house was absolutely beautiful, very clean, and it was comfortable. Our only vaguely negative is maybe label the switches, but we also had fun playing the "which light does this go to" game so it really wasn't an issue. The hosts were extremely prompt with replies and were very helpful. I would definitely stay for a longer period if the opportunity arose.

History Buffs and Prospective Locals Welcome

This is an adorably quaint house. Those who appreciate history and connection to a community will really enjoy their stay. Sam and May are very kind and supportive hosts as well. There are vintage pieces throughout the house and are lovely to see. The hardwood floors are gorgeous but do note there is some creaking if you have light sleepers. Also, I would recommend young children to walk with shoes or barefoot as socks can be slippery on the wood. If you have a larger vehicle, I would plan on parking in the street. Our 2022 jeep compass fit in the garage but only could open one side of doors with some limited space.

We stayed the night to record a Drew Hale’s Christmas album at Dogtown studio. The house was centrally located to everything we needed to do. We enjoyed our stay immensely. The home was spacious and clean, the beds were comfortable and we would definitely stay here again.

Adorable, clean historic property

Great property, close to great amenities, just as described. Clean, cute, and served the purpose for our needs. We just needed a place to rest our heads overnight for an event at Van Andel Arena and were on our way the next morning. The hosts were great and helped us find a local pizza delivery and responded to communication right away! I highly recommend this property and we were grateful for the peaceful stay.

Sweet home in the heart of GR

This home fit our needs perfectly during our weeklong stay in GR. Its location is wonderful—loads of shops, restaurants, and beautiful neighborhoods for walking. The house is sweetly decorated and had everything we needed in the kitchen. We enjoyed cooking and baking with the vintage stove! We enjoyed evenings on the porch and mornings in the unique front sunroom. Lovely!

Big house

The house was clean and tidy. We were there to just sleep and not entertain. I would say that for our family preferences, we’d stay in a more quiet area of the city. This part of Grand Rapids while charming is busier than we expected. This is no fault of the host. Her description of the home and what was included was spot on. It is an old house but VERY charming and cozy. Lots of great coffee shops and eateries nearby etc. Good value and stay overall.
