We were staying in Holly for a family wedding and so glad we chose The Herald. There were quaint shops and a variety of restaurants within walking distance. The apartment was decorated with a unique theme and every detail was covered. It was a short distance to the wedding venue and the location provided easy access to and from. Rachel responded to any questions we had in a very timely manner. We would definitely stay at The Herald again when visiting Holly, Michigan. ##### Lorie W.

My husband and I stayed here on our wedding weekend and it was perfect! It was a quick walk from the Holly Vault. It was spotless, had high end finishes, and the beds were so comfortable. The owners went the extra mile to make us comfortable and quickly responded to our texts. I can’t recommend this place enough. There is a train very close by and they do give ear plugs. Regardless of where you stay in Holly though you do hear the train! 10/10 property. ##### Bridget K.

This was a BEAUTIFUL apartment above Battle Alley. My Husband and I absolutely loved our two nights there. While we were there a Fire Alarm malfunctioned and woke us up. We called the hosts at 1am and they were there in 15 minutes to fix it. They were so kind and considerate especially since we had called at such a late hour. ##### Jodi G.

Our family loved the space and location. It was immaculate, nicely decorated, and perfect for what we needed. Rachel also made available a blow up mattress so the kids didn't have to sleep in the same bed!! We were in town to visit my mother/grandmother in an independent living facility in Grand Blanc and worked out perfectly for us to travel back and forth and stop at the National Cemetery where my father was laid to rest as a veteran. We got to walk and get donuts every morning at the Holly Donut shop and enjoyed the old car rally in town one evening. Restaurants were great all in walking distance. Highly recommend and will be staying again on our next visit from California to Michigan!! ##### David G. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa P. 29 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy historic place to stay The place was very cozy & clean. High ceilings and natural brick exposure in three rooms. Cream and coffee available. A nice shower. Curtains to block out the light from outside. Everything I needed to crash for a continuing education course with some very nice touches of some wine and popcorn for a snack. If I was there with other people I might be a bit worried about privacy in the bathroom because of the sliding door, however this was just me so it didn't matter. The host gave very specific instructions on where to park and how to get in. I am a light sleeper so the train did wake me up however I just put on a sound app and I was able to get some more sleep. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get breakfast in town because my training started early and the restaurants didn't open. This was my first time staying in Holly and the town looked really cute! Would definitely stay here again. ##### Lisa P. Stayed 1 night in Dec 2022
