Charming home, conveniently located for us. Space for our whole group. Worked well for someone who was limited with stairs to just stay on first floor.
This house was a great place for our family vacation with 3 kids and 4 adults. So many nice accommodations like coffee bar, desktop fans in every bedroom, and kids’ sidewalk chalk. Very clean. The location seemed to be close to every place we wanted to go - zoo, children’s museum and sculpture garden. Thank you for the hospitality!
We booked this house for it's location to downtown as we were visiting the Acrisure Amphitheatre.You can tell the host put a lot of thought into furnishing the home with all the essentials and more!It was perfect for our group of four, having our own bedrooms, places to keep all our things and not feeling like we are on top of each other. Neighborhood was quiet. Easy to reserve, check in/out, listing matched reality. Definitely would stay here again!
Tracey's place was perfect for a quick girls getaway! It was very clean and has great outdoor spaces. It is centrally located to downtown. Tracey was very responsive to any issues we had. We would stay here again!
We visited Grand Rapids for a girls trip to the Frederik Meijer Gardens. The location of this property was very convenient to everything. The house is large and clean. There were six beds (one was a trundle) which accommodated us well. Ample parking at the house and nice outdoor space. I would stay here again.
We had a terrific stay for GVSU graduation weekend. The neighborhood is quiet and very convenient to downtown. House had plenty of amenities and was clean. Bedrooms had nice touches. Would definitely stay here again!
Nice property! It is close to Grand Rapids attractions. This area is not in close proximity for walking to attractions, you must have a car. FYI! Great parking and area outside if you want to sit outside in the back there is a fire pit. You will need to get your own wood. The kitchen is spacious and there is a nice dining table for sitting. It has one first floor bedroom if someone cannot use stairs. We enjoyed our stay with our group of seven!
I rented this house for me and my adult children to attend a wedding at the John Ball Zoo. Location could not have been better (3 minutes away). The home is beautifully remodeled, very clean and perfectly well equipped. We cooked in one night and the kitchen had everything that we needed. We would definitely select this home again. Thank you to our host!
We had a wonderful time st My Girl Marions. The grandkids loved the park so close. The home’s decor is beautiful and all the little surprise extras were very much appreciated! Tracey, the host was fantastic. Thank you! The Dodge Family
The house was ideally located (a mile walk from downtown) and was a great layout/design for a family stay (or as in our case, a group of colleagues in town for a conference). Definitely would stay again!
This house was perfect for a college friends reunion. Each room was well-equipped with thoughtful amenities, the kitchen, layout and decor was great. Location was perfect to get to downtown with a short drive and loved that we could park four cars.
