Historic Craftsman 8 min from downtown Kalamazoo

Enjoy all that this historic, fully renovated Craftsman has to offer. Located just 8 minutes from downtown Kalamazoo, this house sleeps 9 guests and features a game room, hot tub, and large back patio - perfect for your next getaway!
The space
Walk into this historic Craftsman home and let your kids (or inner kid) run wild! Enjoy the game room with shuffleboard, NBA blitz, foosball, and more.

Off the game room, you'll enter a beautifully renovated kitchen that opens to the large dining room, perfect for conversing while cooking a meal or enjoying a glass of wine.

From there, you'll enter the spacious living room with ample windows and seating. The living room features a 65-inch TV adjoined by a 4-season porch with a daybed that can be utilized as a bed. The sunroom is perfect for relaxing with your morning cup of coffee.

On the lower level, you'll also find a bedroom with a queen bed, a workstation, a half bathroom, and a closet full of board games. You will also find a sun room that has a twin size day bed that we consider the 6th bed and the 9th bed spot. This sun room doesn't have doors on the room and is open to the living room.

Upstairs features a full bath with a skylight, a stylish kids' room with twin bunk beds, and a queen bed. The master bedroom is a showstopper with a king bed and adjoining full bath.

Let's not forget the outdoor space! Enjoy all that each Michigan season offers with a 6-person hot tub and large patio, perfect for grilling out or taking in the sunshine.

Please note the 9th bed spot is considered to be the day bed. This is also an additional bed to make there be 6 beds in the home. The room the day bed is in doesn’t have doors and it’s on the main level next to the living room.

Such a fun weekend
Our family had such a fun time. There were a lot of arcade games, Foosball, and shuffleboard bowling. Best of all a hot tub! The area is close to grocery stores and local attractions. We will have to keep this house in mind when we are in the kalalamazoo area again.

WMU Theater Weekend
We had THE BEST stay at the Historic Craftsman House. Family flew in and drove in from PA, Ohio and FL to attend a musical at WMU. Very quick drive to the Gilmore Theater Complex on campus and close to a lot of restaurants etc. Everything was very clean, all the amenities were thought of, the kitchen was perfect and included coffee!! The game room and hot tub made it really fun for our college age daughter and 18 year old son. We loved it and will be back!

Perfect reunion stay
Rented Austin’s place for myself and four friends for our 20th Kalamazoo College reunion. The home is beautiful! The front reading room gets beautiful sunlight, and the house is warm and cozy throughout, even though it’s so spacious. We especially loved winding down on the back porch, and using the hot tub. We’ll look forward to renting Austin’s place again for our 25th!

A Fabulous House
This was an amazing house! The kitchen was very well equipped with quality dishes and cookware. The common areas were spacious with multiple areas to congregate. Bedrooms were comfortable. Modern amenities werre throughout and it was beautifully decorated. Austin was quick to communicate. I will definitely return.
