I admittedly don't have a lot of comparisons for a bed and breakfast, but we had a great time at the Sandcastle Inn! We didn't have a lot of time to spare, as we were traveling from Chicago back to our home in Oakland County, Michigan, but South Haven was a perfect stop-over. We were in the Royal Suite - sleeping in a round turret was pretty cool. There was also a push button fireplace and a gorgeous deck that would have been much more enjoyed if it was a little warmer. After arriving around 7:30PM, we checked into our room and then headed into town for dinner. Carlene told us we could walk into town without any problems, but it was still a little chilly for me to want to brave that. We had a delicious dinner at Clementines and then headed back to our room. The bathroom required a little patience and the toilet almost constantly ran, so we shut the door in order to not hear it. Oh well. After attempting showers in the morning we decided if we ever choose to open our own B&B, the bathrooms WILL take priority. But it wasn't enough to ruin an otherwise excellent evening. And after a fabulous breakfast prepared by Carlene, we forgot all of our troubles. Unfortunately I'm not too much of a foodies, but I can say it was super-yummy! We were first offered bagels or toast, but if you're not used to eating a lot of breakfast, pass on those as the best is yet to come. There was a fabulous feta and something quiche along with lots of fresh fruit (not easy to come by in cold spring in Michigan!). If we're ever traveling sans kids on the west side of Michigan again, we'd definitely book a room at the Sandcastle Inn :)
