We were looking for an enchanting and first-time B & B experience to enliven the holiday spirit, and The Grand Kerr House undoubtedly did just that. Imagination runs wild inside and outside with this impressive Grand Victorian. Super hosts Kathy & Bob knew everything about this house, attended to our every need, and cooked us a fabulous breakfast the next day. It's a peaceful, beautiful place and the quaintest village within walking distance with excellent shops and restaurants. It was a joy to be here, a memory to cherish, and one we look forward to returning and recommending to family and friends.

Too bad we just had one night in Grand Rapids, OH for a family wedding; but at least we stayed in the lovely town itself in this gorgeous, roomy, quiet, and super-comfortable old home - and not in a cookie-cutter chain hotel some miles away.
The room and amenities are roomy, plush, and relaxing; the hosts available and accommodating; the breakfast completely scrumptious and satisfying.
This would be a wonderful getaway lodging and town any time of year.
The town has an array of enticing shops, brewery, riverside views, and right down the road is a state park with Maumee River kayak/canoe put-in.

My wife and I were not going to take a honeymoon, so I decided to find a place to take her for a night to relax after our wedding and have an amazing time. I spoke with Cathy a couple times and looked at multiple places and finally decided to stay here. We are both extremely happy that we did. Cathy and Bob were absolutely fantastic hosts. Such a stunning home and the knowledge that they hold are simply amazing. Bob made us a homemade breakfast and had some fun and informational conversation after. The rooms were so gorgeous, common areas were inviting and comfortable and the amenities were fantastic. Neither of us had stayed at a bed and breakfast before, but after staying at the Grand Kerr House, We will definitely be staying at them in hopes of having as great an experience as we had here. We will definitely stay here again in the future and recommend everyone that wants to, to try it. THANK YOU FOR A GREAT WEDDING NIGHT!

We visited the Grand Kerr House near the middle of August and stayed for one night. The hosts, Cathy and Bob, took good care of us in this historic house. We slept well in a comfortable four poster bed. Everything was clean and well outfitted. We received a wonderful breakfast in the formal dining room. We appreciated the detailed introduction to the history of the house provided by Bob.
The house is also located within walking distance to downtown Grand Rapids and a number of small parks and other attractions. We had a great time. We plan to visit again .

Our stay at The Kerr House was very enjoyable! We were visiting family and friends near the area for the week and had always wanted to stay and learn more about the history of the house. And……That we did!
Cathy and Bob were most cordial and couldn’t talk enough about the history of the family and, the story of the house’s past as a spa retreat.
The food was delicious for morning breakfast along with the welcome mat for extra beverage availability.
We group near the area and the stay truly welcomed us back with memories of fond visits to Grand Rapids, Ohio with our children and friends!
Victorian homes amaze us and down to the bone, this truly was a true labor of love in its good solid build and the upkeep shows with its owners indeed!

Cathy and Bob are simply amazing! The woodwork in this historic home is absolutely beautiful and it was so clean. We relaxed in the hot tub where thick cozy towels were readily available. The breakfast was beyond my expectations. Our room was incredible with a beautiful working electric fireplace and delicious cookies were waiting with plenty of water. We had access to a refrigerator and provided robes and slippers. The town is a must see with the most amazing shops!My daughter and I had massage and reflexology in the morning and can't wait to return!

What an awesome experience!!My mom stayed here in November and loved it so much that she got my boyfriend and me a gift certificate for a two night stay as our college graduation present!Soooo incredibly relaxing — especially the hot tub! Bob and Cathy were so kind and personable, it felt like I’d known them my entire life!During your stay, check out Wild Side Brewing Company (just a 4 minute walk) for live music and great tap beer!

We had such a great experience that we already booked again for next year! Bob and Cathy were wonderful hosts and a lot of fun to talk with. We were given a nice tour of the house, with all its history.The bed was very comfortable. The hot tub was a really nice added bonus. My wife got a massage on-sight (super convenient). And the breakfasts, oh the breakfasts! They were soooooooooo good!The house is just a few minutes walk to a cute little downtown, where there are restaurants and a path along the river. I could not recommend it or Bob and Cathy more highly!

Absolutely wonderful. They bed half my wedding party and fed the entire group over a four day period. Gave an amazing tour of the house and prepared a variety of food for breakfasts and had fresh ground coffee available. The house is comfortable and an absolute work of art.

Last week I got together with three of my college sorority sisters. We booked the Great Kerr House and what a perfect place to reconnect. Our hosts, Bob and Kathy, have been lovingly restoring this 1880’s beauty. We were able to walk to the quaint town of Grand Rapids for lunch and to shop. Took a relaxing walk along the Maumee River and returned to town for dinner. A leisurely soak in the hot tub capped off a beautiful day. Breakfast was excellent and the brown sugar bacon was sinful! A couple of the gals took advantage of the opportunity for a massage. Fun destination!
