Archive for category: Michigan Romantic Bed and Breakfast Getaways

In this past week at the bed and breakfast we have had a number of guests who were extremely active and doing as many summer season Lakefront activities as possible.  One of our couples who were on a romantic getaway went on the Lake Michigan boat cruise, went horseback riding, rode jet skis and went on the Dunes ride…all in ONE DAY!  Another couple on their romantic honeymoon getaway brought their kayaks and bicycles with them this weekend and yet another couple were on their motorcycles.  It just proves how many different ways one can enjoy themselves here while visiting the West Michigan lake front area.

One of the many pampering spa touches we provide our bed and breakfast guests is the plush terry cloth robes in all of our whirlpool suites for our Inn guests to enjoy.  Although available year round, B&B guests especially appreciate them in the Michigan winter months when stepping out of a bubbling whirlpool tub and into a plush robe is especially comforting and warm.  Many of our bed and breakfast guests like them so much that they also have purchased them out of our gift shop here at the Inn.

This evening we are going to the last of the summer series at Mason Street Warehouse/Saugatuck Center for the Arts.  It is a great broadway troupe company that presents a marvelous showcase of entertainment each year in downtown Saugatuck.  Many of our bed and breakfast guests have also taken advantage of going to these shows this year while visiting the West Coast of Michigan and our bed and breakfast.  Tonight’s performance is “The Nuclear Family” and sounds like a really good time.

Today while shopping in nearby Holland Michigan and venturing on our way from the bed and breakfast by East Saugatuck up to Holland it was evident that the schools have not yet started here in Michigan.  One of our local Michigan elementary schools that we drive by frequently is still under a major remodeling phase that quite obviously will not be completed for awhile yet.  Also, the number of school age children with their parents in the stores is very apparent.  As we shopped today, I have to admit that I was thankful thinking that the school kids would be starting back soon after labor day (our new law in the state of Michigan).

One of the many romantic getaway enhancements that we offer our romantic couples is a spa basket.  Whether staying in one of our luxurious whirlpool suites or in one of our beautifully appointed Inn chambers, the spa basket is a nice way to add on a romantic touch without breaking the bank.  The basket includes gourmet chocolates, romantic interlude music, a complimentary bottle of sparkling juice or wine, a fragrant soy candle to set the mood, massage lotion and a heart shaped rose sented soap.
