KT2 Downtown Ann Arbor/Kerrytown Love Nest

Ann Arbor Guest House is located in the heart of Ann Arbor's Historic Kerrytown District. This exclusive and private residence is on the second floor of a approximately 170 year old home surrounded by antique perennials. We are across from Kerrytown Shops and Market and the famed Kerrytown Farmer's Market (open Wednesdays & Saturdays in season). The area is vibrant with life and activity. With the Kerrytown Concert House next door, classical and jazz music often escapes their confines and fills the Guest House! We renovated this Guesthouse in February 2018 after being open since 2003. At that time we upgraded new paint, new carpet, new bed, new draperies and window coverings, new kitchen appliances and more! The charm of this house keeps regulars, such as parents of kids at U of M or those coming for football weekends coming back. It becomes their home away from home. We have housed many professors for short and extended stays or couples come to escape their work-a-day world in search of a little peace and quiet from the kids and a night on the town. We lovingly call this our "Love Nest"!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a sofa bed, a coffee maker, and a phone. Housekeeping is available on request.

Perfect stay in very central Ann arbor. We immediately felt right at home, the apartment is so clean and comfortable! One of us used the queen sofa bed and found it and the linens very comfortable. Location is amazing - We walked practically everywhere. If we return to Ann arbor we would love to stay again!

New Year in Ann Arbor

The accomadation was very clean and cozy. Very comvenient to Kerrytown and downtown Ann Arbor. Much quieter than anticipated being in city center. Plenty of room for the two of us. Great location for visiting family and friends over the holidays.

Great location!

Great location for anything downtown and in Kerrytown—with a parking spot! Overall, this charming spot worked nicely for my Ann Arbor-born and raised husband and I plus my mom to stay while we visited family for Thanksgiving. We wish the beds were a bit softer, especially the futon, but we managed just fine. When in Ann Arbor make sure to visit the Kerrytown Farmers Market, the Michigan Theater, and Knights for a meal and stiff drink.

We were in and out for Parent's Weekend and this spot was walkable to all the places we needed to be. Instructions were clear and responses from the host (check in and out) were responded to quickly. Bonus - the year-round farmer's market is located just across the street - it was wonderful to wander through Sat morning!
