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!

We loved our stay at this property! Owners were easy to work with, check in worked well, it was beautifully decorated with lots of small unexpected touches. Spacious kitchen had everything we needed and the bathrooms and bedrooms were all lovely and well stocked with towels and bedding. This house set a high bar for future rentals to exceed!

Disliked: Communication
The house itself was great. It offered a lot of space for our family and the kitchen was well stocked. Unfortunately, we had an incident happen where our car was damaged by falling ice from the roof. We reached out to the host and after some back-and-forth, we asked her not to reach out to us anymore and we would settle the issue with VRBO. She then sent the property manager to the house at 10:15pm, which felt like a violation of our privacy. It was the night before my mom's funeral and the last thing I wanted to deal with was this issue. The house was great overall but we would not recommend parking cars side by side in the driveway, even though the posting states you can park 4 cars in the lot.

Four brothers met for annual get together. We enjoyed a car show, drag racing and oval track racing. The house location was perfect for all events. Grand Rapids was beyond our expectations for comfort and activity. Local restaurants were very good. The house was comfortable and had plenty of space. Kitchen and baths were especially nice. Very nice stay.
