Cute rental house
This rental house is very nice and perfect for a family to stay in. The site description is accurate. They had a good coffee and tea selection! The owner is going to fix a functional issue the AC was having. Overall, this was a good find for staying in town for a wedding.

Great stay!
Cate's home was a perfect home base for my family to attend a wedding in the Battle Creek area. There was more than enough space for all of us and the location was convenient for all the wedding activities. You can tell that Cate cares for her guests with all the comforts of home that are provided. Thanks Cate!!

Darling retreat with family
We were cozy and comfortable in this well-equipped, sweetly decorated, spacious home. The perfect place to stay while we visited family in the area, and hosted several for a backyard dinner. We loved the home’s character and appreciated the amenities, such as toiletries and a vast array of coffee and tea. Cate was a welcoming hostess, and very responsive by text. Would definitely stay here again!

My family and I were looking for a quick relaxing trip and we found it in Battle Creek. This home was close to everything we wanted to do. We really enjoyed the back patio and yard. The host provided a corn hole set that we put to use. Very pleasant stay!

A quaint home for some family fun.
The owner, Cate, is a gem. She brought us treats from the bakery as a surprise. The backyard is such a peaceful place for morning coffee or afternoon wine. The kids enjoyed running around out there. The kitchen was fully stocked and set to cook and enjoy a nice meal. Comfy beds. Close to hiking. And affordable, which we very much appreciate.

Cozy and cute home
The house was nice very clean and tidy. Lots of space for 6 people. There is no privacy in the shower however felt a little exposed as there’s no privacy glass for your upper half. Also the air conditioning was set way too high for in the summer. Loved the stereo (might have to get myself one) thankful for the bacon and eggs that was a nice surprise. Notice that there’s a fire pit would have been nice so we could have brought some firewood. But overall really enjoyed the stay
