About this property

Minutes from the City and the Lakeshore

  • Minutes to downtown Grand Rapids and Minutes to the Lakeshore. This is the best of both worlds! Built in 1925 this home was originally used as a family home and the local doctors office! This character filled home has been updated with the amenities, and charm you desire from a historic home. This retreat is exactly what the doctor ordered for relaxation, convenience, and fun!

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.

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.
