Peaceful and relaxing stay

My wife and I had a wonderful time at this peaceful B&B and we could not have asked for better hosts. Dennis and Jim were so welcoming and addressed our every need. Every morning we were served a delicious breakfast, the perfect way to start the day. The property is gorgeous and we had a great time kayaking on the scenic Kalamazoo River. We thoroughly enjoyed this brief getaway and would love to come again.

An amazing place!

This was one of the nicest places we've ever stayed. Dennis and Jim were so welcoming, friendly and helpful. The house was just beautiful and we especially enjoyed the property. Sitting on the deck was relaxing and kayaking on the river was amazing. Breakfasts were delicious (Dennis was so thoughtful accommodating our vegan son), as was the coffee that was always prepared early enough so I could pour myself a cup before I went outside to watch the incredible sunrise. You won't regret booking a stay here.

Beautiful and relaxing anniversary getaway

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful bed and breakfast, and I can’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, Dennis and Jim made us feel completely at home. Each morning started with a delicious, freshly prepared breakfast—thoughtfully crafted with locally sourced ingredients and so full of flavor. It was clear they put a lot of care and love into every dish. Beyond the amazing food, the owners were a treasure trove of local knowledge. Their recommendations for nearby attractions, dining spots, and hidden gems were absolutely spot on and added so much to our trip. Thanks to their guidance, we were able to experience the area like a true local. The attention to detail, warm hospitality, and personal touches made this stay truly unforgettable. If you’re looking for a place where you’ll feel cared for and well-fed, this is it. We’ll definitely be back!

Best Trip Ever!

It was our first time staying at a B&B and we truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. Jim and Dennis were phenomenal hosts and did everything they could to make our stay spectacular. The Garden Suite was the perfect size for us, and was nice and private--and the views from the balcony were gorgeous! But the highlight for me was definitely our morning chats with Jim and Dennis as we ate our delicious breakfasts (still dreaming about that quiche!) We will definitely be back!

Want a lovely, serene getaway? You got it! Plus, a 5-star breakfast. Looking for proximity to everything Douglas/Saugatuck has to offer? Score again! My husband and I loved this place. The accommodations, and the whole experience for that matter, were beyond expectations. Jim and Dennis seem to truly be committed to high end hospitality. We'll be back!
