Clean home in a safe neighborhood
We came from Wisconsin for a baseball tournament and had a nice stay at your home. My son’s team won the championship which made this trip even more memorable. I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a vrbo in the Kalamazoo area.

Great for a family weekend
Enjoyed time with family here. 4 adults and 4 kids. Has everything you could need for young children, including step stools. 4 minute drive to a great swimming beach, with some huge trees that provide a nice shaded option. Host was very responsive to questions.

Great place for our family gathering
Very cozy home with everything we needed, lots of bed space and room for our family to spread out. There was a great outdoor deck, as well as a screened in porch for those rainy or buggy days. The kitchen was a bit small but well stocked with dishes, glasses, and silverware. And the ping pong table was a big hit! It worked great for our family to celebrate and remember our dad.

Comfortable and Cozy
This home was perfect for our family of four with our big kids. We had plenty of room to have our own space to unwind, and the finished basement was a great spot for us to relax together for family movie nights. The location is perfect! 10-15 mins to Plainwell Ice Cream, Meyers, MSU Bird Sanctuary and 301 for a quick drive into Kalamazoo or GR. Jenna was a great host and thought of everything needed for a comfy stay. Bonus points for the most comfortable beds we’ve experienced at a VRBO. It will definitely be on our list for future stays up in the mitten.
