We loved everything about this hotel. We went for our babymoon to relax. The breakfast was amazing. Even though I couldn’t fully partake, the happy hour was so cute and I was still able to enjoy the snacks in their garden area. Perfect location. We were able to walk almost everywhere in South Haven. We will absolutely be back!
