Just what we needed

We were in town for a Family event and we loved staying in this beautiful apartment. It had everything we needed, and the location was perfect for the events we had. The near by pub and coffee shops proved to be handy and delicious! Thanks for making a tough event as pleasant as it could be!

The perfect place to stay when visiting Holly or nearby.

We were staying in Holly for a family wedding and so glad we chose The Herald. There were quaint shops and a variety of restaurants within walking distance. The apartment was decorated with a unique theme and every detail was covered. It was a short distance to the wedding venue and the location provided easy access to and from. Rachel responded to any questions we had in a very timely manner. We would definitely stay at The Herald again when visiting Holly, Michigan.

Beautiful Stay for a Nearby Wedding

We stayed at the Holly Herald for one night as we attended a weekend close by in Fenton. While there is not a ton to do in Holly, it was the absolute perfect place with modern updates, beautiful decor an amazing bathroom and still so much charm. We were right in downtown Holly and couldn't asked for a better ambiance. Thank you Rachel, it was perfect!

Urban chic loft apartment

Gorgeous place right in the heart of downtown Holly. The view overlooking Battle Alley is great. The hosts are extremely responsive, friendly, helpful, and thought of all of the extras to make the stay more enjoyable. Modern amenities throughout. We were in town for a wedding at Venue 111 and it’s less than 1/2 mile away. So convienent.

A great stay!

My husband and I stayed here on our wedding weekend and it was perfect! It was a quick walk from the Holly Vault. It was spotless, had high end finishes, and the beds were so comfortable. The owners went the extra mile to make us comfortable and quickly responded to our texts. I can’t recommend this place enough. There is a train very close by and they do give ear plugs. Regardless of where you stay in Holly though you do hear the train! 10/10 property.

Great!

This was a BEAUTIFUL apartment above Battle Alley. My Husband and I absolutely loved our two nights there. While we were there a Fire Alarm malfunctioned and woke us up. We called the hosts at 1am and they were there in 15 minutes to fix it. They were so kind and considerate especially since we had called at such a late hour.

Hidden Gem!

We booked our stay for a family wedding close by and cannot say enough great things about the property and the location! Holly is adorable and we were there during peak holiday season, when Battle Alley sparkles and shines with holiday decor. The view down the alley from the living room is worth the booking! We had a perfect stay!

Very nice place, location, communication, and accommodating!!!

Our family loved the space and location. It was immaculate, nicely decorated, and perfect for what we needed. Rachel also made available a blow up mattress so the kids didn't have to sleep in the same bed!! We were in town to visit my mother/grandmother in an independent living facility in Grand Blanc and worked out perfectly for us to travel back and forth and stop at the National Cemetery where my father was laid to rest as a veteran. We got to walk and get donuts every morning at the Holly Donut shop and enjoyed the old car rally in town one evening. Restaurants were great all in walking distance. Highly recommend and will be staying again on our next visit from California to Michigan!!

Cozy historic place to stay

The place was very cozy & clean. High ceilings and natural brick exposure in three rooms. Cream and coffee available. A nice shower. Curtains to block out the light from outside. Everything I needed to crash for a continuing education course with some very nice touches of some wine and popcorn for a snack. If I was there with other people I might be a bit worried about privacy in the bathroom because of the sliding door, however this was just me so it didn't matter. The host gave very specific instructions on where to park and how to get in. I am a light sleeper so the train did wake me up however I just put on a sound app and I was able to get some more sleep. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get breakfast in town because my training started early and the restaurants didn't open. This was my first time staying in Holly and the town looked really cute! Would definitely stay here again.

We went for the Dicken's Festival and was right in the middle of the action. When we would get cold, we could walk a few steps to our apartment and watch the festivities out the windows while warming up. It's a fantastic Apartment and an incredible location.

First Class on Battle Alley

Everything about this condo is first class. From the location to the decor and the amenities. But what really stands out on this unit is the owners. We have never seen such a well equipped condo. The owners really went out of their way to make sure everything you need is available. Not to mention the communication was excellent.
