OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
Situated in a rural environment but very close to the world-renowned Gilmore Car Museum and one hour from Frank Lloyd Wright's The Meyer May House, The Gerald Ford Presidential Library, and Meijer Gardens and Sculptural Park in Grand Rapids. Ann Arbor and "The Big House", Frank Lloyd Wright's Palmer House and the University of Michigan are 85 miles away.

The Meyer house is a 15-minute drive to the many restaurants and brewpubs in the quaint city of Kalamazoo. Lake Michigan and the charming towns of Saugatuck, South Haven, and Holland are one hour away.

Southwest Michigan is filled with highly regarded golf courses, public parks and a number of rivers and lakes, some with public access for boating, kayaking, and other forms of outdoor recreation.

The Bi-annual Gilmore International Keyboard Festival (Kalamazoo) and annual Art Prize (Grand Rapids) are events that draw tens of thousands from around the world. Music lovers are likely to find a classical or jazz concert nearby. Lucky gamblers may gravitate to The Firekeeper's Casino or The Gun Lake Casino, both within 30 minutes.

A guidebook with "Things to Do" will be in the house. Reach out in advance if you would like suggestions, but most guests stay to enjoy a rural getaway with peace and quiet surrounded by nature. Perfect for bird watchers.

A Stellar 53rd Wedding Anniversary!

A one of a kind experience staying in a 1950's FLW home with all the conveniences of today! We became bird watching geeks! Loved the beautiful gardens! If you love beautiful architecture you will be amazed how beautifully Doug lovingly restored the Meyer House.

Father-Daughters Getaway Weekend

My daughters are big Frank Llyod Wright fans being graphic designers and chose Doug's beautiful property to begin our new yearly tradition of getaway weekends. We we're all very impressed with the attention to detail inside and out plus enjoyed exploring Wright's architectural vision for the Meyer House. Needless to say we spent almost our entire time indoors and could still witness the beauty of the outdoors landscape with wall to wall and floor to ceiling windows. It was an amazing weekend and many thanks goes to Doug for allowing us to stay in his beautiful home!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this FLW home!!! Doug has truly loving restored this home to its original glory and then some... with all new kitchen and bathrooms. The beds were very comfy. The master bedroom is a little exposed to the house due to the balcony, but everyone went to bed a the same time so it didn't really mater. I can see why this would be considered a 2 person house since a whisper from anyplace can practically be heard everywhere, but for a couple nights with family it was fun. I could sit and look at this beautiful home (inside and out) for days on end. The layout is so unique for FLW and stunningly beautiful. Thank you Doug for sharing your lovely home :)

First Rate Experience

Our stay at the Meyer House far exceeded our expectations, however high they were going in. The house was so beautiful, and snow falling all weekend made the views even better than I'm sure they usually are. The owner was extremely generous, in terms of snacks, coffee, homemade cookies and more left for us to help ourselves to. I love the location too - you feel totally isolated from any hustle and bustle, but can be to the highway in under 5 minutes and could be in Kalamazoo in 15 minutes or so. I would give my strongest recommendation for anyone considering staying here. I hope we have a chance to stay here again in the future.

Great Stay at Meyer House

We had a wonderful weekend staying at the Meyer House. There is no better way to appreciate the genius (and idiosyncrasies) of Frank Lloyd Wright's architecture than to stay overnight in one of his Usonian houses. The location at the top of a hill and the pastoral setting are very relaxing and perfect for a weekend getaway. Anyone with an interest in mid-century design should strongly consider a stay at the Meyer House.

A MUST Stay for Any Frank Lloyd Wright Fan

I rented the Meyer house as a 50th Birthday present for my best friend. We visited in early November, 2020. This home is impeccable - and we are not easy to please. It is clean, has everything you need to settle in and enjoy some quiet time. There are dozens of FLW books to read, gorgeous views, a well appointed kitchen, and comfortable beds. There are 3 other FLW homes in the neighborhood, but the Meyer house is by far the best maintained in my opinion. Davey the (outside) cat even took a long walk with us when we toured the neighborhood and took pictures. The owner communicated quickly, and answered all questions I had prior to and during the stay. You will not be disappointed if you stay here!
