Our stay in this lovely home was wonderful, start to finish. The host Phil is very prompt with his communication; he answered every query within a short time and was always clear in his answers. The home itself is beautiful - its quiet location and spacious interior was ideal for our ladies' getaway. We are an elderly group so we appreciated everyone having our own bedroom and bath, but also the ability to gather for conversation and meals. Phil was also extremely helpful In providing information and suggestions on what to see in the area. We were thrilled to stay here and highly recommendation!

Phil was very quick with responding with answering any questions I had. The place is literally beautiful and not to far from downtown with quick access to the freeways.

I had a phenomenal experience staying at the Lantern. It'll all started with Phil's top notch communication - he proactively reached out with instructions within 48 hrs before my arrival and then checked in on me within 24 hrs after my first night. This was a nice touch because I feel Phil truly cares about his guests. The Lantern was spotless, updated in terms of decor and modern furniture + appliances, making feel right at home. One perk I really appreciated was the amenities - the Lantern provided an abundance of pillows, blankets, towels, shampoo/body wash, and even tooth paste + a bath robe (which I almost never see!). This essentially elevated my experience to living in a really nice hotel with a homey & private vibe. The location was also a plus - Forest Park is very quiet and you're a 5 min walk away from downtown. Overall 6/5 star experience - would recommend to anyone visiting. Thank you Phil for a phenomenal experience!

The beautiful pink lady was so lovely inside and out. A lot of thought was put into the furniture and decor. A great cottage vibe with furnishings that were cozy and stylish. The location is perfect for traveling to Holland, South Haven andSaugatuck . Phil is an A+ Host. Very helpful and kind.
