About the host
Hosted by Courtney Lawrence
Scott and I met twelve years ago, working together for a prominent logistics company; I was a dispatcher, and he was a truck driver. We decided to buy a house and spent weekends transforming it into a beautiful, cozy, and functional home. With the arrival of grandkids, we put in a pool with a circular deck, creating a perfect space for entertaining and relaxation—our little paradise. Two years ago, we felt it was time for a change. Life became stagnant, and we both were looking for something different. We left our jobs and purchased a camper to explore the country. We have had the opportunity to travel as far west as Yellowstone and as far south as Savanah, GA. Being gone so often, we thought with our home's fantastic location, and close proximity to downtown Grand Rapids, we decided to list our home on Vrbo, Airbnb, and other rental platforms. The home was built over a hundred years ago on the west side of Grand Rapids. We know our home is older but it's the old-style windows and crown molding (the popcorn is bad and due to be removed one day). We also have updated the home with the conveniences that provide comfort and ease, such as air conditioners and a dishwasher. We have hosted birthday parties, bridal showers, wedding rehearsal dinners, as well as bachelorette parties. The privacy fence, large yard, heated saltwater pool, and easy-to-use propane firepit have provided us with countless fun nights in the backyard, enjoying the outdoors. With so much to do in Grand Rapids, we wanted to share our home so others can enjoy all there is to do in and around Grand Rapids while staying in a place that feels like home. .
Why they chose this property
When we were searching for a house, being empty nesters, we wanted a location that was lively and close to events, bars, and restaurants. We were fortunate to find our home just a stone's throw from downtown. It's conveniently located near the Van Andel Arena for concerts and DeVos Place for anything from the popular R&V Show to taking in a Broadway play, such as Hamilton. This vibrant scene perfectly aligns with our desire to immerse ourselves in the local culture while enjoying everything the neighborhood has to offer. One of the key factors that influenced our decision to buy our home was the potential of the Grand Rapids West side. With exciting developments planned for a downtown amphitheater, a professional soccer stadium, and high-end dining options, we felt drawn to this thriving community. Having bike lanes readily available enables us to cycle to different destinations, which is advantageous for both our health and the environment.
What makes this property unique
Our property stands out because of its prime location and the warm, inviting atmosphere we've created. It combines comfort and accessibility, allowing guests to experience the best of Grand Rapids right at their doorstep. With a beautiful backyard for outdoor gatherings, with a heated saltwater pool and tiki bar, and a homey interior that's perfect for relaxation, we aim to provide a unique experience that reflects the charm and vibrancy of the neighborhood. Whether you're here for a concert, a night out, or a family gathering, our home is designed to make your stay both enjoyable and memorable.
