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 wasnât 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!
Our stay was great! Centrally located to the downtown area, walking distance to most! The beach is a little further but not too far! The beds were decent, and everything was clean! Keep in mind this house is a historic house and does come with its share of creaks and old decor. Shelly the host was very welcoming and helpful. All in all I would absolutely stay there again.
Beautiful outside but very shabby inside. Our room was a disaster--outdated furniture and bed, filthy carpet, broken down easy chairs, floor seriously slanting, walls needing paint, etc., etc. We will never stay there again and will not recommend it to our friends. Owner was understanding and cancelled remainder of our stay with no charge--that was the best part.
I have a heavy background in architecture, restoration and historic preservation, plus I lived in Europe...and this is one of the best places I've ever stayed. It's absolutely gorgeous and super clean with plenty of places to relax and enjoy this historic property. The house was very quiet at night for a good nights sleep. The innkeeper is wonderful and makes your stay superior. LOVE THIS PLACE!!! I can't wait to return : )
We were greeted by the host at the front door. B&B is beautiful. Bed was comfortable and breakfast was very good. Grounds were well manicured. We will be booking a stay there again next year.
I was traveling through Grand Haven and chose The Boyden house as my overnight stay. This B&B has a lot of local history, is walking distance to downtown activities and convenient to access roads. Clean, kind, quiet, scenic. I will return when I get back to Grand Haven.
