Volkema Plat (Corrected) sits on nine acres in Gaines charter township, with quarter-acre lots that strike that balance between having your own space and staying connected to what matters. You're about twenty minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and under nine minutes from Gerald R. Ford airport, so the city isn't far when you need it—but the township itself keeps things grounded with twelve restaurants and a handful of grocery options within a short drive. You're served by Caledonia Community Schools.
