Archive for category: Michigan Romantic Bed and Breakfast Getaways

As many of our bed and breakfast guests can tell you, biking around the Saugatuck, South Haven and Holland areas of West Michigan is plentiful.  Every weekend from spring to fall you will see lots of bike enthusiasts pedaling through the back roads and byways along Lake Michigan and throughout the surrounding farm communities.  The scenery is great and there are plenty of open roads as well as more casual bike trails that meander along the lake front beach towns.  While we do provide bikes for our guests to use, many of our bed and breakfast guests prefer to bring their own bikes with them for their Michigan getaway vacation.

In the past few years, the Kingsley House bed and breakfast Inn has been featured TWICE in the New York Times.  One of these was a package we were featuring in conjunction with a local Saugatuck business and another was when we offered a “apple cider for gas” special in which guests were given coupons for free apple cider at Crane’s apple orchards and pie pantry in exchange for how much gas they used to travel to the bed and breakfast and the Saugatuck area of West Michigan.

The Saugatuck Michigan summer getaway for our current bed and breakfast guests includes summer time heat, humidity and thunderstorms that rolled through with crashing booms at 5:00 a.m. this morning.  When we think of summertime in West Michigan and the surrounding Saugatuck area, we rarely think of the severe weather that can sometimes come with it.  Fortunately for our current Inn guests, the thunderstorms seem to be happening primarily overnight and later in the day or early in the morning.  The warm summer weather has also warmed Lake Michigan to 75 degrees this week, making it almost like bath water.  So we certainly can’t complain this summer season.

The following review was just posted today by recent guests of our Saugatuck Michigan area bed and breakfast:  Repeat Guests for a reason–outstanding B&B.  We have stayed at the Kingsley House in the fall and winter months for our anniversary and birthdays, so we decided it was time to see it in the summer months. What amazed us this time was the number of repeat guests they had at the Inn, but then that speaks for itself. We were one of six couples at the Inn on a couple of recent weekdays and five of the six were repeat guests (including ourselves). That says a lot for the way these guys run the B&B. A few more things we noticed this time around….the breakfasts are always amazing and always different, the landscaping and gardens are gorgeous, and we have now loved every one of the four rooms/suites we have tried. Can’t wait to go back again! We love it here!

Romantic getaways really are a large part of our focus here at our Southwest Michigan bed and breakfast.  So much so, that we have always given our romantic couples on a getaway escape the option of dining at a table for two, ensuring the ultimate in privacy and relaxation.  We also offer breakfast in bed for our romantic couples as another option to enhance their time in West Michigan.  In the summertime, we have both tables of two and tables of four on our large wrap around porch.  In the colder months, we also have tables of two as an option for our romantic couples.
