Welcome to the Craftsman Cove. 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. We also welcome up to 2 of your favorite furry friends with additional fees. Our home is fenced in so you don’t have to worry about taking them out.

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 sunroom that has a twin-size day bed that we consider the 6th bed and the 9th bed spot. The sun room doesn't have doors and is open to the living room.

Please be aware that the hot tub is an amenity that may not be available during your stay. If the hot tub is out of service, no discounts will be provided. Occasionally, prior guests may cause safety concerns that necessitate temporarily closing the hot tub. These situations are beyond our control. While we will make every effort to have the hot tub operational, your safety remains our top priority.

Guest access
You'll have access to the entire house. Access to the home is via keypad entry. Your unique key code will be provided prior to your reservation date.

Other things to note
The hot tub is professionally managed by a third party who is a Certified Pool Operator. Typically, the hot tub professional comes on Monday morning but timing may vary based on their schedule. Your safety and experience is our first priority.

We welcome up to 2 dogs per reservation, with an additional pet fee due prior to check-in. The fee is $75 for the first dog and $50 for the second, charged once per stay (not per day).

All pets must be disclosed in advance.
Attempting to bring a pet without notifying us, or trying to avoid the pet fee, is a violation of house rules and will result in a $150 penalty added to your reservation.
