We are Tom & Joyce. While Tom retired from his career in food sales and marketing three years ago, we are active with our oldest daughter in the management of her retail business in Grand Rapids. We have lived in our home on Geneva Lake for just about three years, and have put a lot of effort into making it a special place where we enjoy the lake and all it has to offer, along with living in the country and enjoying the abundant nature and wildlife that are all around us. We have enjoyed limited RV life for many years, but only in short stints due to our full-time work, and mostly local, mostly enjoying the beach on Lake Michigan. However, we purchased an Airstream travel trailer in 2018, and since our retirement, we are spending more and more time traveling in it.

Tom and Joyce were sitting on their front porch to direct us after we made a wrong turn. Wonderful friendly couple. Very peaceful stay at their beautiful property. Hope our paths cross again sometime. Tom suggested a visit to Gilmore car museum and it did not disappoint.

We enjoyed our stay with the hosts. They were welcoming and friendly. They have had a lot of work done on the property and the pride they take in it is obvious. We were welcome to roam freely on the property, and we did, sometimes just to listen to the music of the birds. Definitely would stay again.

Wonderful stay and beautiful property! We were greeted by Tom & Joyce and provided water/electricity access. The parking area was level on a very quiet street. Enjoyed sitting by the lake at sunset and getting to meet these kind hosts.
