Relaxing stay in comfy home

House was amazing, clean and they had all essentials needed for a great stay. Had a tree fall right before our stay but they cleared it and fixed the problem right away. One of my better stays ever. Thank you Austin for providing me and my family with a great home to stay for our vacation.

Such a fun weekend

Our family had such a fun time. There were a lot of arcade games, Foosball, and shuffleboard bowling. Best of all a hot tub! The area is close to grocery stores and local attractions. We will have to keep this house in mind when we are in the kalalamazoo area again.

WMU Theater Weekend

We had THE BEST stay at the Historic Craftsman House. Family flew in and drove in from PA, Ohio and FL to attend a musical at WMU. Very quick drive to the Gilmore Theater Complex on campus and close to a lot of restaurants etc. Everything was very clean, all the amenities were thought of, the kitchen was perfect and included coffee!! The game room and hot tub made it really fun for our college age daughter and 18 year old son. We loved it and will be back!

Perfect reunion stay

Rented Austin’s place for myself and four friends for our 20th Kalamazoo College reunion. The home is beautiful! The front reading room gets beautiful sunlight, and the house is warm and cozy throughout, even though it’s so spacious. We especially loved winding down on the back porch, and using the hot tub. We’ll look forward to renting Austin’s place again for our 25th!

This was an amazing house! The kitchen was very well equipped with quality dishes and cookware. The common areas were spacious with multiple areas to congregate. Bedrooms were comfortable. Modern amenities werre throughout and it was beautifully decorated. Austin was quick to communicate. I will definitely return.
