The accommodations were clean and lovely.
So great for a large group especially because of the number of baths.
Loved the open spaces and large couch for gathering everyone together. That was wonderful!
My family and i stayed here for 3 nights for my daughter's Grand Rapids wedding.
It was a perfect house for us! Itwas very spacious, yet cozy and comfortable. It was incredibly clean!! Our host Hailey was in contact with us and was so helpful.
Would definitely stay here again in the future!
Lovely home with lots of room, exactly as advertised. All rooms beautifully appointed; beds luxurious and comfortable; large and easy to use kitchen, well stocked. Attention to detail in thinking what guests might need. Host checks and returns messages immediately. Would stay here again for sure!
This property was excellent for our family. It accommodates large families and provides enough privacy everyone. The basement game table was an added bonus during our down time. The only thing we found wrong was the bathrooms needed better cleaning as there was hair left behind.
The property was clean and conveniently located for access to downtown Grand Rapids. It was perfect for my family (4 adult couples) as it had 4 bedrooms upstairs with their own private baths. Only suggestion would be for better air circulation in the upstairs bedrooms (ceiling fans would be nice), otherwise I would recommend to anyone staying in the Grand Rapids area.

We knew from the pics that this was a clean, newer, spacious home, but we had no idea how perfect it was for our 8 family members. We could have added 3 additional family! 4 king bedrooms with 4 private baths and loads of personal amenities (coffee, pods, soaps etc) ! Perfect
With two small children, we decided to take a different kind of vacation built around activities that everyone could enjoy. This house was absolutely perfect for our trip. There are plenty of good sized bedrooms so everyone could be comfortable - each with their own bathroom.. entire house is very kid friendly - with a soft sectional arrangement in the living room with ottoman - perfect for our 1 year old granddaughter learning to walk. Location is excellent. Close to zoo and Meijer Gardens. Hailey, the host representative, is fantastic. They are very accommodating about check in and check on. Great property. Great stay. Thanks, Hailey!
Had a great stay at the gathering place. It was beautifully clean and absolutely as the website says. We stayed (9 adults) for a family wedding in Grand Rapids. The house is really well set up for large groups and when there were problems (not enough mugs) Hailey dealt with it straight away. I don’t usually complete reviews but I was so impressed with this property that I would highly recommend it.
This was the perfect spot for an intergenerational get-together for our family. It was so nice to have suite-style bedrooms, with a full private bath inside each of the upstairs bedrooms. The basement game room offered a lovely place to relax and hang out. Communication with the property manager was excellent. She was proactive and very responsive to questions. The communication package also provided excellent suggestions for local activities. All-in-all, a very nice week!
The home was lovely! It was as neat as a pin and had all the amenities that were promised. I brought my whole family, grown kids and their kids and I can say everyone was happy and comfortable from us boomers to the teens and also the little guys. We had a blast and felt warm like we were in a home away from home. Thank you for all the little details, I noticed each and every one of them.
We very much enjoyed the stay at the house, we had family in & out for the wedding preparation and the house worked out great!
Thanks for sharing it with us!
Great location to get all around grand rapids. Had a boys weekend and we're able to be close to golf, the brewery scene and downtown scene. Would recommend for you next group gathering!
This property was perfect for our group. We have 4 couples who like to travel to a nearby city once a year for a long weekend . We chose GR this year as I had been there for a wedding last summer and just really loved the city.
The location could not have been better for all the sites we were interested in seeing.
Very nice house.
Rides into town were very reasonable if you were planning to use a share service.
House seems to be newly built.
The basement has some games and a tv.
