About this property

Cozy apartment getaway in Holland

Nestled in the heart of the city of Holland, enjoy a reprieve from your busy lives and experience the community offered at this unique retreat.

This home originally operated as the parsonage connected to a local center city church and was eventually purchased by Brownson Properties as part of a mission to offer a welcoming space for all people to enjoy the City of Holland. After Jeannette, the owner of Brownson Properties' recent passing, her family has chosen to continue to host those looking to experience her beloved community as a legacy of her commitment and belief that 'God's intention is for people to love and be loved.'

Once you enter this cozy home you will enjoy peaceful privacy on the upper level of this brick, 2-story home. Spacious bedroom with hardwood floors and king bed offers a sunny view of the quaint Westcore neighborhood. A separate family room provides a space for reading, reflection, and conversation and is also equipped with a small kitchenette for late-night snacks and morning coffee. Though there is not a full kitchen, there are many amenities that will make your stay pleasurable. The common room is equipped with a mini fridge, microwave, Keurig, and a toaster oven. A full bath completes this floor. The outdoor patio is available as shared communal space on the lower level.

Plan your day exploring the unique opportunities Jeannette was so passionate about. Take a walk to Hope College, Kollen Park, the Civic Center bountiful Farmer's Market, and enjoy endless window shopping along the heated sidewalks found in the heart of the city. Kayak or hike at Macatawa River Greenway, take a short drive to Holland State Park, spend a day on Lake Michigan and look forward to a memorable meal at the wide variety of great eateries. Worship, volunteer, and reflect while enjoying a famous Lake Michigan sunset.

Build new relationships and a community you can come back to whenever you feel the need to restore and refresh. Jeannette created this opportunity with you in mind!

*Please note that this is an apartment on the second level of the home.

"We had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful upstairs loft. We visited during the Tulip Festival and the location was perfect. We were lucky to meet the owner and enjoyed visiting with him. Would recommend to stay in this beautiful neighborhood lined with tulips"

"I enjoyed my stay at this location. The inside was serene and peaceful and the neighborhood was quiet (and particularly beautiful in the spring with the tulips and trees in bloom). I would stay here again and hope to have the opportunity to do so in the future."

Wonderful intimate escape in the heart of Washington Blvd. Historic District

My wife and I were looking for a place within walking distance to downtown Holland for a long weekend, and found this wonderful getaway that is about a 20 minute walk from there. We were also able to walk to Washington Square, which was a neat bonus! The space was immaculate and well furnished, and the owner, who lived downstairs, was extremely friendly and gave us the space we needed. It was just like a hotel suite! Overall, a great experience - we would both highly recommend!

Incorrect Listing

This listing is listed as an “entire home” when in fact it is not. Also, the downstairs can be rented out as you are renting the upstairs as well. This is NOT listed on the listing, we only found this out AFTER booking, on our way to our vacation and reading the reviews. We had to hurry and try to find a hotel to stay at due to worries of safety reasons. We are very upset that we had to lose almost $600 due to an incorrect listing by the property manager and we will be taking this up with VRBO.

Input

The host was exceptionally friendly and kind. We appreciated his warmth and hospitality. We had trouble turning on the TVs so bought batteries to replace the ones in the remote on the TV in the bedroom and the TV worked. We never did get the TV to work in the living area. I would also suggest that visitors bring paper products on which to eat if they are uncomfortable washing dishes in the bathroom sink. We do not like to eat every meal in restaurants so bought paper products because I was uncomfortable washing dishes in the bathroom sink. Everything else was very clean and in order. Thank you for a great stay.

Comfortable, clean, convenient

This home is comfortable, clean, and convenient. The homeowner, Jonathan, was respectful of our privacy and also very responsive and helpful. We arrived during an unusual heat dome with high outdoor temperatures; he helped us to be sure that the air conditioning was cool enough despite the outdoor temp. The home is rented to only one group at a time, who have the second-floor space with its own separate lockable front door. The homeowner lives downstairs in a separate part of the house, but we saw him only outside the house when we arrived. There were ample bath towels and beach towels; the Keurig coffeemaker with pods, the microwave, the coffee mugs, and the mini-frig were very useful. Connecting our phones and laptops to the internet was easy. The property manager, BVW Unsalted Vacations, kept us well informed by email, and the arrival and check-out were straightforward and simple.

Cozy Holland Stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your place in a beautiful and serene neighborhood within walking distance of downtown Holland. Your place was supplied with everything we needed or might have forgotten to bring such as soap, shampoo, toothpaste, tea, coffee, mugs and plates. We had plenty of space that included a sitting room and spacious bedroom. We also enjoyed the outdoor seating area. Your place was clean and comfortable. My favorite place was Centennial Park with so many beautiful flowers everywhere.

Nice but no privqcy

Everything was very clean and well put together however it had little privacy ecspecially if there had been other tenants. We felt like we were visiting grama's house and felt as if we had to whisper and walk lightly on the creaking floor. It would really depend on yours needs if you were to stay here. It just wasnt what we were expecting. If you need a room only this is what your looking for. You will share bathroom and kitchen area if there are other tennants.

Great location, Cute space, Nice Owner!

We had a great time in Holland and we enjoyed our VRBO well enough. It was cute, clean, and well located, but the bed which was extremely uncomfortable and the room was very hot, I barely slept either night we stayed. If I did it again I'd bring a nice pillow or comforter to soften the bed a bit and just plan for a cooler weekend.
