1,100 sq. ft.


We do allow pets with a $50 per pet fee which must be collected separately after you make your reservation. Please include the breed and size of your pet when making your reservation. You will also be required to agree to our pet policy.


Full access, the entire place is yours!


Smart tv with Hulu, PhiloTV, ESPN+ and Disney+ subscriptions provided. 

Location:


Located about 2 miles from Western Michigan University, Waldo Stadium and Kalamazoo College in the Westnedge Hill neighborhood and across from Crane Park. Crane Park has tennis courts, badminton court and a beautiful flower garden in the summer. Very nice for relaxing or letting your dog run around. Also a good spot for sunsets as you can see over the northwest side of Kalamazoo. The neighborhood to the south (up the hill) and behind are both very nice with some very nice homes located behind me on Glenwood Dr. and around the park. There is a nice apartment community located next to the house on the north side called Westnedge Hill Apartments. 


Milham Park Golf Club and Gull Meadow Farms are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those looking for area attractions can visit Kalamazoo Nature Center, The AirZoo or Airway Lanes for go karts and bowling. Binder Park zoo is just about a 30 minute drive also. Looking to enjoy an event or a game while in town See what's happening at Waldo Stadium or Wings Event Center.


It is located on the city's bus line with stops just up and down the street. Uber and Lyft are great options for getting around with only around a $6 fare to downtown. It is a 11 minute drive to Kalamazoo Municipal Airport and 50 minutes south of Grand Rapids' Airport.



Other things to note:


***Located on a busy street***


Location: Everyman's House is located on a hill on a one-way main road (Westnedge Ave.). It was built back when Westnedge was not as busy. Please be aware that traffic noise can be heard inside of house. Also it can be busy depending on the time of day and some people find it difficult to back out of the drive way. However, because of the traffic light located down the road there is always a break in the traffic to back out. Please be aware of this LOCATION issue before booking!


There are four total parking spaces with two being inside of the garage and two spaces in the driveway. Do not block driveway.


The stairs are steep and may be difficult for elderly guests but there is a bedroom located on the main floor.


Please be aware that although pets do not live on the premises I do allow them so it is a possibility that some hair/dander be found which I understand can be an issue for some guests with a severe animal allergy.


We do allow pets with a $50 per pet fee. You will also be required to agree to our pet policy. Please be sure to include that you will be bringing pets before you arrive.


If you would like early check in or late check out I will do my best to accommodate. There is a fee of $20 per hour. Please be aware that it takes up to 3 hours to clean and do laundry in between guests so availability is subject to prior/future guests requests.


I would love to give you a tour of the home and provide more info about the history of the house and information about Kalamazoo if desired but you are also welcome to just use self check-in. I am usually available but if I happen to be out of town I will have a co-host to help with any issues with the home.


Addition fees: 

$50 per pet pet fee (if you would like to bring a pet)

$20 per hour for early or late check out if you would like to check in or out outside of our listed arrival/departure times. Subject to availability. 

These fees can be added to your reservation after booking or you can pay cash on the day of your arrival.

    Everything about this house was wonderful. Jennifer was responsive to all my questions. Check in and check out were easy to understand. And the house itself was well maintained, extremely clean, and comfortably decorated.

    Julie made herself available and helped me get in during a snow and cold snap. The house is warm and cozy and was a refuge in the below zero outdoors. Having the garage was amazing as the snow fell...and fell. Everything we needed was there and I had no fear in case we got snowed in. The house was very clean and the beds were so comfy. We would stay here again when we visit my son.

    We were in town for a softball camp and college visit at WMU. We were not at the residence much over our two day stay. The property was cozy, clean, and perfect for our trip. The beds were comfortable. As noted the road is busy. Traffic can be heard but it didn't interfere with our sleep. There are fans available that can help cover up the noises. We were there in the winter, it snowed and was cold. The garage was an awesome asset to have! There are stairs and you enter the home into the basement from the garage. However you could also walk around to the front door to avoid the basement stairs. We were happy to avoid the snow and use the indoor stairs. Snow came overnight and we headed to WMU in the morning. When we returned the sidewalk and drive had been cleared of snow. Communication was good with the owner, there are also instructions at the home. Every room is nicely decorated. Fast food options are convenient and just up the road. Several food options can be found further down the road. Due to our busy schedule, and the weather, we didn't do much in the area. However its location is convenient to the University. Overall we would recommend this home, it clean and a great value.

    Cute house with a cozy feel! We stayed for UKC Premier! The Host was hard to get ahold of at times but would reply eventually. The yard was great, a cute porch and fireplace. The house was warmer than ideal especially upstairs but downstairs was cooler! The pantry was stocked with goodies when we got there! I would definitely stay there again!

    Although it was for only 1 night, we really enjoyed our stay. The house was the perfect size for myself and 2 friends, and we especially loved spending time on the back deck.

    The house met all our needs. The kitchen was well equipped. Backyard was fenced in for our dog. Our only issue was the loud traffic noise. All the bedrooms have windows facing the street. Recommend ear plugs if staying. Beds were comfortable and house was clean. Just a heads up the billing for the house has a different title. Same host, but billed under a different property name in Battle Creek.

    Everyman’s House served as convenient lodging for our weekend in K’zoo. We were fascinated by the background and significance of this house. It retains many of its historic features while providing modern conveniences. As mentioned, there was significant noise with heavy traffic use at certain times of the day.

    Jenny was great- very responsive & helpful, lots of good directions over message and in the house guide book on location. House is very cute, cozy, clean and well decorated. Lots of space. Only downside is the busy street- noise made it a bit harder to sleep.
