About this property

Welcome to The Loft on Colby!

Located in the heart of historic Whitehall, The Loft on Colby was originally constructed as a Masonic Temple in 1922 and is home to the first piano delivered to the White Lake area. This piano continues to serve as a focal point to the large living space. The Loft on Colby is one of the original and tallest buildings of this quaint town. This one of a kind property has two bedrooms, two and a half bath and an open loft sleeping area (formerly the balcony.) The Loft can easily accommodate 8 guests. It is the perfect home-base to enjoy all that the Whitehall/Montague area has to offer.

The Loft is conveniently located to US 31, an hour from Grand Rapids, and 3.5 hour drive from Chicago or Detroit.

Relax with a good book while enjoying the view overlooking White Lake Bayou. Explore beyond to shops, restaurants, walking paths, bike trails, kayak liveries, or to the grassy park just steps away on White Lake. A scenic drive to the nearby Duck Lake State Park offers the sandy beaches of Lake Michigan and the warm wading waters beneath the bridge to Duck Lake.

In our well-stocked kitchen, you will find everything you need to prepare and serve meals for 8. If you prefer takeout or delivery, menus from local restaurants are available.

The Loft is stocked with kitchen staples such as table settings, coffee, paper goods, soaps (dishwasher/dish) garbage bags, as well as bedding and bath/beach towels, and travel size toiletries.

FAQ: 2 exterior security cameras (facing out--covering balcony and stairs), located on the 2nd floor of the building, stairs required for entry, stairs required to access loft bedroom.

The Loft on Colby is the perfect getaway for those who enjoy historical open loft living and the attractions of a small quaint West Michigan town.

Fantastic, unique, historic, clean!

Located just a short walk from restaurants, breweries, water, and marinas, the loft on Colby immerses you in everything Whitehall has to offer! The loft is clean, comfortable, and fully stocked with anything guests could possibly need. We are already discussing our next visit!

Wow Wow Wow Wow!

We can’t stop thinking about our experience at The Loft on Colby! From check in to check out and everything in between, my family and I LOVED the experience. Michigan’s adventure was 10 minutes away. Lake Michigan maybe 13 minutes. So many nice people and fun little shops/pubs/restaurants in the area. The owner does a great job making sure you feel comfortable in your home away from home. We honestly can’t wait to book again and this will be a repeat booking for years to come!

What a great spot!!!

We stayed at the Loft on Colby over the Fourth of July. Kristen made our stay there very special. Was always available before the trip to answer questions about the area and things going on for the holiday. We were blown away with the Loft when we entered. Greeted with breakfast goodies, charcuterie board and even a gift card for Fetch Brewery right down the stairs which we frequented a few times. Accommodations including the kitchen/bathroom amenities were top notch to say the least. Would definitely be back and recommend this to anyone looking to get away to a great quaint small town with many things to to nearby, restaurants, lake, pontoon rentals, walking, biking, etc…
