This was my first time visiting Grand Haven. Boyden House was conveniently located to a number of restaurants and the downtown area, However, the beach was at least a 30-35 minute walk--not the 18 minute as advertised. My room was nicely furnished and clean with updates and a minor repair pending. The bed was very comfortable. In addition to the morning breakfast, a shared kitchen with fridge, microwave, and coffee/tea/bottled water/cocoa/and popcorn was available The area was quiet and there was off street parking. It was a pleasant stay.

Lovely Inn with very comfortable accommodations. Shelley is the “hostess with the mostest”! She makes wonderful breakfasts and the best chocolate chip cookies. And she makes you feel at home. I would highly recommend Boyden House.

Hidden Grand Haven Gem!

It was a great stay with an exceptionally customer service host, Shelly. She was very welcoming and clearly takes great pride in her management of this historic (built in 1872!) B&B. The grounds are immaculate and there are great places to just sit and relax. And her breakfast was superb! Homemade quiche (which I wasn’t a real fan of before this!), delicious fresh strawberries, and great coffee!
