Planen Sie jetzt Ihren Sommerurlaub bei uns!

Overall this was an excellent vacation location with my kids. I really enjoyed sitting outside in the quiet and reading. The pool was amazing, and my family had an awesome time. Being a single parent I appreciate how affordable this cottage was, and that our dog was able to join our vacation. Many great family memories were made!

The owners were very kind and helpful. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Very relaxing atmosphere and private. Just a short drive to Grand Rapids yet able to enjoy the fresh air and small town vibe at the residence.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this quaint, historic place along the Grand River in Lamont! It’s a relaxing, quiet atmosphere with a cottage feel out in the country. The scenery is beautiful! I loved being greeted by the horses each morning. The pool was refreshing and has an amazing view! The accommodations were clean and comfortable. I slept great each night! The Parchers are warm, friendly hosts who make you feel like part of the family. They have a great appreciation for the property and the historical significance of it. I intend on coming back!

The view was very pretty and the property was very quiet. The carriage house was clean and comfortable too. We very much enjoyed our one night stay. (2 slight things were that the pool was dirty and the house smelled pretty musty. Nothing that vacuuming and airing out won't fix quick though.)

As we were traveling, my husband and I booked a one-night stay at this property. I knew that the carriage house was a very old building and that was fine with me. When I used the bathroom sink, the water from the faucet had a bad smell like rotten eggs or sulphur. There was spring water in the refrigerator and bagged ice in the freezer and I believe it was because of the quality of the tap water. The house was very old but clean. The refrigerator had seen better days. It was a bit rusty but usable. The property setting was absolutely beautiful and we enjoyed sitting outside. There was a big built in pool, but it needed to be skimmed for leaves, etc. and there were mossy looking stems in the pool bottom. We did not use it. We went to dinner and upon reentering the carriage house, I smelled a gas smell. There is a gas stove inside, so I asked my husband to come in. He also smelled it. I called Heidi’s cell and since she did not pick up, I left a message. (I later found out they were at the movies.). We went back in and still smelled the gas smell. It was then we decided we did not feel comfortable spending the night in the house. We booked a hotel and left. After we arrived at the hotel and checked in, we heard from Kyle. He said he would check it out when they returned home. He said he did not smell a gas smell. I told him we had been concerned for our safety and that is why we left. I asked for a full or partial refund. He said because of the VRBO contract, same day cancellations do not receive a refund. Personally, I don’t consider what happened a “same day cancellation”. He said we could return and spend the night. I said we did not feel safe sleeping there and we would remain at the hotel. I also told him safety is more important than the money we lost and I hoped there was not a problem at the carriage house.
