We LOVED our stay!! The home is beautiful and in a perfect location to highways and an outlet mall. We even had an opportunity to tour Parkside Farm, a few houses down! The goats, bunnies and chickens are super sweet and friendly!! Our favorites were the cats, Brita and Mr Boots!!
This home was such a wonderful place to stay. The entire process was easy and seemless. The house is very clean, wonderfully decorated and full of old character. This house has clearly been lovingly restored and remodeled. My family completely enjoyed our stay here and would not hesitate to return.
We had a wonderful stay at the Farmhouse in Byron Center. The hosts are very thoughtful and responsive. The Farmhouse had all the amenities we desired, including a full kitchen, dining room, living room, and multiple bedrooms. The temperature was very comfortable during a cold front with lots of snow. The location has nearby access to the highway and plenty of restaurants, but still feels very private. Wonderful stay. Thank you!
Took the whole family(7 people) for a long weekend stay. There was space to stretch out and relax. The big kitchen yable was great for card games. Two bathrooms were great. Everything was very clean and well kept.
The property was amazing from the cleanliness of each room, availability of kitchen equipment, placement of cushions for the outdoor seating, laundry facilities. And all the rest. My daughter and her bridesmaids loved the connecting rooms, the dining area became their game table the night before and hair and makeup station on the big day. The owner was easy to contact and spot on with an extra air conditioner and the rest, We couldn’t have been happier.I’d add my video of the girls going in but it won’t upload. They were all joy and excitement.
We (myself, husband, son, DIL, and two grands) had a wonderful stay in this lovely farmhouse near the Pygmy Goat Farm. The house is thoroughly updated with the kitchen having high-end appliances and stocked with just about everything you would need to fix a meal.Three themed bedrooms are upstairs, along with a full bathroom. The main level has an air mattress in an office space next to the living room (no door for privacy) and another air mattress (twin) is in the living room. There is a full bath on the main floor, along with a mud room and laundry room.Nicole was very prompt in returning messages!Be sure to schedule a tour of the Pygmy Goat Farm which is just a few minutes walk from the house. Nicole did a wonderful job educating all of us, ages 1-75, and was very friendly and entertaining, as well.Thank you, Nicole, for sharing your wonderful house with us!
