Garbow Plat No. 2 spreads across 13 acres of modest residential land where lots hover around three-quarters of an acre each—plenty of space without the acreage burden that comes with outlying rural tracts. Homes here run around $363K, and you're roughly a 25-minute drive from downtown Grand Rapids, though Gerald R. Ford Airport sits closer at 11.7 minutes away if you travel frequently. What anchors daily life is proximity: a restaurant sits a four-minute walk away, with 18 more within a mile, and Kettle Lake lies less than half a mile east for water access and fishing. Campau Lake's public boat launch is even closer at 0.6 miles, while a grocery store requires a short drive at 3.7 miles. Caledonia Community Schools serves the area, and the subdivision itself sits within Garbow Plat Area, a stable residential cluster in the region's quieter reaches. The trade-off is straightforward: suburban calm and land at the cost of short car trips for everyday errands.
