    ***Please CALL 616-396-1316 for availability***

    We have rooms available and looking forward to your stay. We are open from April thru October.

    Bonnie's Parsonage 1908 was originally built as a parsonage by one of Holland's early Dutch churches in order to call their first minister. The inside still glows with the original dark oak woodwork, pocket doors and leaded glass windows that were lovingly and masterfully crafted.

    Situated in a peaceful residential neighborhood, our guests enjoy two sitting rooms, a summer porch and an outdoor garden patio where they can sip morning coffee or an afternoon glass of lemonade. In winter, guests cozy up with hot spiced cider in front of the fire. Peaceful sleep arrives in our three carefully appointed guest rooms with views of the mature trees and landscaped grounds. Morning finds guests lounging in early 20th Century comfort in the sitting rooms while tantalizing aromas come from the kitchen. While many breakfast specialties are available, the most requested fare is Bonnie's Famous Baked Pancake. A visiting judge once declared it a "culinary masterpiece" and who are we to argue with a judge?

Roadside stands offer the produce from local farmers and restaurants take full advantage of their bounty. Fall color tours punctuate nearby Octoberfests as the growing season winds down. We don't doze off during winter. Even when blizzards whirl, our hearty citizenry zips up the snowsuits and heads for the trails on skis and snowmobiles. Hope College is just three minutes away.
