Private Slice of Heaven

We were so pleased with this haven. It's peaceful, comfortable, well-maintained and the hosts were fabulous. Our business was mostly in Plainwell and Otsego, but it's close enough to Kalamazoo if 'nightlife' is important to your visit. Our nightlife dealt with the firepit and the sounds of crickets and toads and gazing at the stars; true relaxation needed during an emotional trip. I would highly recommend staying at this location.

Little slice of heaven right in the middle of Michigan.

This property is gorgeous. It's quiet and serene with all of the makings of a woodland painting! But you're only 20 minutes from any activity you might like! Many vineyards within a quick drive or go a little further and hit the lake. This was our 25th anniversary getaway and believe me, we'll be back.

Wonderful Stay in a Cozy, Affordable One-Bedroom!I had a great experience staying at this VRBO rental. The space was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a safe and relaxing stay traveling alone. The location was convenient to many vacation activities, grocery stores and restaurants and the price was very reasonable.What really stood out were the hosts. They were incredibly responsive, friendly, and made me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. It’s clear they care about their guests and go the extra mile to make the stay smooth and enjoyable.I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a budget-friendly, comfortable place with top-notch hospitality!

Being that the apartment was attached to their garage-there was some noise while working on their vehicles on 2 of the evenings, which wasn't pleasant.
