This is a beautiful, old home right near downtown Hudsonville. We were in town hosting an event at Terra Square. With a historic home comes a couple of challenges with retrofitting appliances and amenities. The dishwasher was far from the sink in a hallway cabinet, drawers were difficult to open, and the refrigerator door does not open fully. I don’t see how the host could have set it up differently given the home layout. Hot and cold water comes out of different faucets in the bathroom. You wash your face with either cold water or really hot water.You had also be prepared to climb some serious stairs to the second floor. My parents were not making it up there. Not a fault of the home or owner, just a warning.

The house was very clean, well stocked with helpful items, beautiful, and authentically decorated. The beds were very comfortable. Each room had a closet and there were 3 wonderful bathrooms. The tv was easy to use. And the host was very helpful and kind.

The house was beautiful and very, very clean. Small details were thought of with this property. The fire pit was a great addition. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the property. Will was a great host and very responsive to communications. We will definitely book again when we are in town next year.
