This is a neat historic hotel that has been restored. Rooms are cozy, but well maintained. Hotel staff was very accomodating. Breakfast was home prepared, better than most hotels. Property was quiet. Conveniently located in the downtown area. Downside is parking. You have to park in pulbic parking down the street, but it's doable.

This is one of those classic jewels you search for. The staff was fabulous and so were the guests! Hanging out in the lounge gave me the feeling of a home away from home. Breakfast was home made and fast. Served with care. The building is old so has its creaks and moans but that is part of the charm. Right in the middle of an amazing little town.

From the moment Todd greets you, you know it's going to be a great stay. Todd wears all the hats like straight out of a Hallmark movie. He greeted us, and he accommodated a last-minute addition (an extra sister) and checked us in early. He reminded all guests of happy hour between 5-7. He sat with the guests and got to know us. He is so personable. The room was so cozy, and the beds were so comfortable. So much so I had to call to find out what kind of mattress it was, and Nick provided me with the information. We all ageed that this will be our new go-to place. Looking forward to visiting again.

So welcoming on check in. Gave us great dinner recommendations. Happy hour on Friday gave us an opportunity to meet other guests which was great. The owner joined us and gave us a tour of the property plus lots of history. This is an old (148) year hotel. Well renovated!! Kind of a cross between a hotel and bnb. Highly recommend it. Parking close by. Stairs to room on the second floor. Breakfast great. Right downtown. We walked all over town. Would return on a heartbeat.

My husband and I planned an impromptu trip to South Haven with our 2 small dogs. ! We hit the jackpot with selecting the right place. Todd was a great resource, answering our questions, giving recommendations and playing host during the weekend happy hour and making breakfast. We can’t wait to come back. Our room was just right. We had a King room. The hotel is very charming!
