Slight problem getting into the place as the lock had malfunctioned so we could not lock the door for the first day. Willie did communicate with us throughout about what he was doing to fix the problem but it was a day later before we could lock the place up again. House was really clean and the look and feel of the old house was really cool. It was a good location for us to enjoy our nephew's wedding.

I am sorry the electronic keypad unexpectedly stop working but I replaced the lock the same night and when that had connection issues I made sure there was a key available the very next day. When issue arise we seek to solve them right away. Unfortunately our fast response still costed us a star. I am glad you enjoyed your stay and enjoyed the house!

This place exceeded my wildest expectations. The house looks little on the outside but it's huge inside! It's an old house junkie's dream, impeccably maintained and every choice from the wallpaper to the penny tiles was period perfect. I read in the guestbook that one of their guests actually grew up there, then came back for a visit, and thanked the host for giving the place a new life, how cool is that!?! The location is perfect and if we're ever in the area again, this will be our home base for sure. I highly recommend this home and host!

There was a bit of a hiccup getting in at first, but the home was everything we were looking for regarding spaces available. It also had a very nice kitchen and we also enjoyed the arcade games in the basement rec room.

1–The positives: the interior of this house was fabulous. Completely restored 1930s vintage with gorgeous wide oak plank flooring and woodwork all over. Several stained glass windows still remain. Bathroom tile redone to fit the era as well. Super clean all over and very well stocked. Comfortably furnished on main floor. Upstairs floors are creaky as might be expected in older home. Comfortable beds. Some sort of luggage holder or a small dresser in each bedroom would have been helpful. Large, updated kitchen with plenty of necessities. House felt spacious and comfortable with three bathrooms, all well equipped.Host was friendly and helpful.2- the drawbacks: location is in town and there is quite a bit of traffic and a train that passes through quite regularly, so somewhat noisy at times but not terrible. Yard needs upkeep, and driveway needs to be repaired.We were an older group with one person with disabilities. Master bedroom was lovely, but bathroom could use some safety bars in the shower, and tile floor tends to get slippery.Overall, this was a lovely and comfortable VRBO. Centrally located in town, which is a growing and active community.

The house was very clean, well stocked with helpful items, beautiful, and authentically decorated. The beds were very comfortable. Each room had a closet and there were 3 wonderful bathrooms. The tv was easy to use. And the host was very helpful and kind.

The house was beautiful and very, very clean. Small details were thought of with this property. The fire pit was a great addition. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the property. Will was a great host and very responsive to communications. We will definitely book again when we are in town next year.

This is a beautiful, old home right near downtown Hudsonville. We were in town hosting an event at Terra Square. With a historic home comes a couple of challenges with retrofitting appliances and amenities. The dishwasher was far from the sink in a hallway cabinet, drawers were difficult to open, and the refrigerator door does not open fully. I don’t see how the host could have set it up differently given the home layout. Hot and cold water comes out of different faucets in the bathroom. You wash your face with either cold water or really hot water.You had also be prepared to climb some serious stairs to the second floor. My parents were not making it up there. Not a fault of the home or owner, just a warning.

House is beautiful with plenty of space for all. Very clean with comfortable beds. Recommend installing yard lights, current one does not work. We arrived after dark and very unsure of footing with tree roots exposed, cement driving path, and cement steps. Recommend TV’s in all bedrooms, only one room upstairs had a TV.
