Nice but....
It was disappointing to arrive at the property to find deep ruts in the drive way and I almost fell on a tree root when navigating to the path. I placed a rock there so we'd know where it was and we removed another small branch ticking up from the dirt. Yes, the drive was dirt and a mess on Sunday morning in the rain, while navigating the ruts. The steps up to the front porch were steep, no warning was given in the description and we one of us has knee problems. The house overall was clean, with plenty of linens. The nest heat control none of us knew how to work and we found no instructions. Overall the accommodations were okay but we thought if we had known of the conditions of the driveway and steps we would have looked elsewhere, there are a definite hazzard.

Very nice home for a long weekend getaway
Our daughter is a student at WMU. We wanted to stay in Kalamazoo and spend some time with her during a long weekend we had over Presidents Day. This home was a great fit for us! It was very clean and well-appointed. The living area on the main floor was perfect for relaxing in the morning and watching tv in the evening, and the dining area was perfect for playing a few board games. The neighborhood felt safe, and it is very easy to get to downtown and a very quick drive to campus. The beds were very comfortable, and the blackout curtains in the bedrooms made it so that if sleeping in is your goal, that would not be a problem! It is an older home and the steps up to the front porch were a bit steep - my wife has a bad knee and commented on that. Other than that, though, this was a wonderful property for our purposes and would definitely stay there again!

Short stay
Communication was great. The pictures of the property are much better than the actual home. Lots of updates have been done to this old charmer but there certainly was a lot of wear and tear to the place. The beds were wonderful! So comfortable. Plus, the location couldn’t have been better! Thanks for the stay and the excellent communication.

A very comfortable house
The house was great for our needs. It's an old classic house that has been nicely updated with modern touches. The large dining room can accommodate a group of 6-7 with no trouble.

WMU Gymnastics Home Meet
This is the second time we’ve stayed in this house because it’s very close to campus. It has lots of storage, hooks, kitchen necessities, and chairs for a family of five. The beds are so comfy. It has all the charm of an older house and I will definitely book it again the next time we cheer on our girl.

Easter weekend in Kalamazoo
We liked the charm of this home. It did look like there are things that are in need of repair in the kitchen area. The sink in the upstairs bathroom had a slow drain and the one downstairs was slow as well. Overall though it was clean and we enjoyed our stay.

Great value at an excellent location
We spent 3 nights in Kalamazoo and this house was perfect for us. We stayed with our 5 children and we were all very comfortable. The house has the charm of an older home with the upgrades of a modern one. The communication was great from the start. We will definitely stay here again when we visit. Thanks for a great stay!

Great hosts, but not what we were looking for
I believe in honest reviews, so let me start by saying the hosts are great people who truly care about their guests. The communication was good, and after notifying them about our disappointment in parts of the property - they offered a refund to ensure that we felt as though we were taken care of. We didn't stay the night due to some things that needed to be fixed / cleaned at the house, but I truly appreciate the solid communication and hope that they are successful going forward. If you plan to stay here, just know that the neighborhood is a bit rough - and Kalamazoo as a whole has been hit hard by the pandemic. What used to be a beautiful vibrant city, has become a much more somber town.
