Archive for category: Michigan Romantic Bed and Breakfast Getaways

Mother nature is not always predictable in Southwest Michigan and so far this December that seems to be holding more true than ever. With just ten days left until Christmas, you would expect that holiday shoppers would be out in the winter backdrop of snowy fields while out shopping for those special gifts for loved ones and friends. That certainly isn’t the case this year, with mild temp’s and damp (but not snowy) conditions today.

It may have taken it’s time arriving this year, but the snow has slowly but surely worked it’s way back into our forecast here in West Michigan. Although it really was a dusting in places yesterday, it was enough to cause havoc on some roadways. Of course, we all want a bit more on the ground to see the pretty white landscape at Christmas time too.

In case you missed it, Saugatuck Christmas parade was this afternoon and lots of fun and festive characters were all a part of it, including the Scrooge, the Grinch, Cindy Lou Who and all of the cast of Whoville. And of course a few santas as well.

This time of year, romantic couples start looking for a romantic wintery sleigh ride through the snow as an option for viewing Michigan in wintertime. Although it certainly sounds wonderful, this year mother nature apparently has other plans as the forecast continues to vary each day, but snow just does not seem to be something that we will have on the ground anytime in the near future. Just wait, after all, this is Michigan.

In talking with a recent customer who was ordering a gift card for the bed and breakfast as a Christmas gift, I realized that a number of our fans believe we should have more online gift card options. So just earlier this week, I added a number of additional gift card denominations so that customers can order online in quite a few different denominations.
