Summary: 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.

Summary: 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.

Summary: 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!
