I am a native of Dowagiac. My 2 adult daughters, 3 small grandchildren (4, 2, 5 months) and I came back to town for a family baby shower and I knew that I wanted the convenience of being in town. Coming home is always a needed thing for me. Heather's space was perfect. We came in right after a major snow fall and it set the tone when we arrived to see the twinkling lights and icicles and the porch glowing in the darkness. We arrived in time to see the Christmas parade, and the children loved being able to see trains come and go from the windows. Vintage, historical, and whimsy describes the space. But not only is the decor phenomenal to look at, the intentional comforting touches in the space accentuates it. I appreciate the attention to detail for families with small children, like stools on both sides of the counter bar, the large farm style dining table, and a cozy space with toys in one of the bedrooms and a rocking chair that is child size. The beds and linens were clean and super comfortable for sleeping. There was plenty of space and we could have included more if it were necessary. Convenience, cleanliness, and comfort were the necessities, caring, consideration and charm were icing on the cake. I do not personally know Heather or her brother who helps create their spaces, but correspondence was easy through the app or email, and I have the opinion that if I had a need she would have done what it would take to respond to it. Thanks Heather, We will be back.
