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!

A lot of traffic and it sounded like a window was open. My room was on the corner along side both streets. Also, it is an older house but beautiful. You could hear people when they walked around. But I would say in the b&b in the future. Great experience!
