Stonegate HISTORY

If you love places with a story, Stonegate’s heritage is layered with tales over a century old…
Old Stonegate Farms was built in 1867 by a Grand Rapids banker. The house was known as a “Halfway House”—an anticipated landmark where tired travelers would slake their thirst and exhausted horses could have a moment’s rest in the shade of centennial maples. Stonegate took three summers and two winters to build.


Through the years, Stonegate has flourished with many purposes—first a fruit farm and later, during the Depression, a dairy farm. In 1984, the house was used by innkeepers as a bed-and-breakfast.


Today, Stonegate continues to radiate its welcoming charm and hospitality. The Victorian-style house still contains much of the original woodwork, historic details, and 11+ foot ceilings.
