We arrived to champagne flutes and a chilled bottle of Asti Spumante with a note of congratulations from our host! When we messaged her she responded almost instantly each time. The apartment was lovely and very clean. The beds are very comfortable and the air conditioning units worked very well. Everything was provided for a comfortable & enjoyable stay. noteseverytattactions.attractions.tctions.

Disappointed
Owners do not seem to be aware of things that need to be fixed such as burned out lightbulbs, towel holder falling off wall in bathroom, broken wand to close blinds in bedroom, smoke alarm not secured to ceiling, carpenter ants and bugs. Kitchen was missing basic cooking items. Steep narrow stairwell with narrow treads made entry and exit very dangerous. The unit was very damp all the time. Needs a dehumidifier!

The property manager was so quick at getting back to us with any questions. We were in town to for my husbands graduation and my birthday and she took the time to make handmade signs for each celebration and taped them on the wall. So kind.

Our stay at the Treehouse
Overall, our stay at the Treehouse was very nice. I would recommend this property to friends and family and most likely will stay again. The property doesn’t look like anything special, the steps to the upstairs apartment are narrow and steep, but the apartment was very clean and comfortable. The beds were very supportive, and we slept great! The location is on a very quiet street. We didn’t see or hear the downstairs tenets. We liked the privacy.

Must be good people
I saw the flag of the Ukraine when we arrived. I didn't realize till after we left that a family from there lived below us and I want to thank the owners, not just for a clean and comfortable accommodation but for whatever it is they are doing for this family, perhaps displaced by an unprovoked war on their country. Also, love it that there are many children in this lovely neighborhood.

Quaint, Quiet and Comfortable
First of all, I can’t say enough good things about the location of this property. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet and an easy 5 minute drive to downtown. There were two of us so we each had our own room. The place was clean and comfortably decorated and furnished. The description of the stairs up to the apartment is accurate, narrow and steep so care must be taken. Bathroom is a bit narrow but nice and everything works. Cherie is very responsive and accommodating. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Little Spot
My family loved the Treehouse! It is located in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. The place is just a few minutes drive to downtown and about 10-15 minutes walk to a couple local parks. We stayed through the 4th of July, and having a baby and a toddler in tow, we were thankful that the neighbors kept things quiet for most of the night- just a few booms in the distance. Also, Cherie was very thoughtful and left a sound machine for us, just in case. The house itself is very tidy and clean. Everything is cute and high quality and it is stocked with all we needed for our three day stay. The rooms are cozy but large enough to fit a pack n play at the end of the bed. It is also so much fun to be up in the trees! Had a great stay!

The property had a great layout. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen really nice. The home is located on a quiet nice street. Only major improvement suggestion is to enlarge/update the bathroom. Overall the space is well organized, spacious and comfortable for a getaway.

Charming Treehouse
We very much enjoyed our stay in the teeehouse. We literally felt like we were in a tree house! The bedrooms are very quaint with the pitched ceilings and simple white bedding. The decor is simple and tasteful. We had everything we needed (coffee pot, blow dryer, etc). There seemed to be a little more in amenities and supplies than was advertised. Very nice. The stairs are very much as described but unless you have trouble with stairs in general, you should be fine. You just need to pay attention. We didn't find a light in the stairway for evening time but we didn't look for one. We used our phone. The bathroom is pretty tiny but functions fine. It helped to have a second mirror in one of the bedrooms. This was not a problem for us. The neighborhood was charming and well kept. It was quiet in the evening. The location to downtown and the beach was very convenient and pretty close. We would absolutely stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Cherie Ockerse

Host profile image
My husband and I purchased this two-unit house early in our marriage. It's been a labor of love for us over the years. We love the location and having access to all the great activities in West Michigan.

Why they chose this property

We grew up in Holland and chose to stay here because we love it! The beaches, the parks, the weather, the people ... we love it all.

What makes this property unique

Some of our previous occupants named the unit "The Treehouse" and it is very appropriate! Leafy green trees shade the whole side of the house making the place feel cozy and secluded.
