The Kerr House is a perfect example of what a "health retreat" should be! The house is a charming and beautifully restored Victorian Mansion. It is spotlessly clean and comfortable. The food is beyond outstanding and it is all organic and healthy. The spa services, which were all inclusive, included 2 facials, 3 massages, citrus body exfoliation, reflexology and more.... More

I live outside of Toledo Ohio and have always heard about the Kerr house however I have never been there. After our our usual family trek up to Boyne Mountain and Mackinaw in Michigan I was alittle stressed ( I had an autistic three year old and two disabled parents traveling with us ). I live for spa treatments and... More

I returned from my latest visit to The Kerr House a week ago feeling the bliss I typically find after a 5 night visit. Over the past 10 years I visit about twice yearly and have been completely satisfied with each experience; one transcending to the next learning more and more and gaining more reward each time! The Kerr House... More

This is the third time that my wife and I have stayed with Laurie and her wonderful staff, for 5 days each time. Each experience has surpassed the previous one and we always leave with a sense of well-being and peace that is truly special. I had the first massage, facial, manicure and yoga class of my life at our... More

I had never been to a health spa or retreat until this past week. I went with my mother and sister for the three day package. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the treatments so much. I felt pampered from the entire staff. They were all wonderfully sweet and caring. The owner, Laurie was so knowledgeable about health, nutrition,... More

This is not a traditional spa. It is a "health" retreat. Laurie Hostetler, the owner, tells guests that they really can "improve with age and enjoy life to the fullest" and after I left the Kerr House I felt like she was right. This is not a posh spa. The house accomodates eight guests and those guests must share bathrooms.... More

Prepare to be enchanted and cosseted! I was a guest at The Kerr House’s original opening week 25 years ago.

Laurie Hostetler has created the most exquisite, memorable and healing spa retreat anyone could ever imagine in a unique... More
