Ada & Forest Hills

Community Overview

Not many places attract locals and people relocating to the Grand Rapids area like Ada and Forest Hills. From the covered bridge in downtown Ada to the scenic hillsides of Forest Hills, this setting is truly picturesque. The winsome shops in downtown Ada sit at the confluence of the Thornapple and Grand Rivers and feel like the main street experience you’ve always wanted. Head up Cascade Road to Forest Hills Foods to pick up a specialty bottle of wine or stop at one of the many nearby fine dining restaurants. Several elite golf courses, nature areas, and parks sprinkle the region. Most homes are spacious, newer, and rest in home associations that take pride in their neighborhood. Perhaps the biggest draw to living here is Forest Hills Public Schools, which is #1 in the Grand Rapids area and is one of the top 15 schools in the entire state!
