A Country Place Bed and Breakfast is a restored Greek Revival situated on five acres of woodland with beach access to Lake Michigan just one-half block away.

Providing both bed and breakfast and vacation rental lodging accommodations, this 150-year-old home provides timeless beauty and endless relaxation for your restful and romantic getaway.

An English country theme runs throughout the home, created by touches of lace, floral accent prints, and handsome antique furnishings. The focal point of the back lawn is a large screened gazebo, where you can appreciate nature to the fullest. It is ideal for bird watching, playing games, having a picnic, or observing the resident "wild" turkeys preening themselves.

Five guest rooms, each with private bath, are individually appointed and offer comfortable amenities. You may choose lace and English roses to enhance your stay in the Windsor Room, featuring a king-size bed and a therapeutic jet tub. Pink roses on navy highlight the mauve decor of the popular Vineyard Room, where unique features include an antique water closet and pedestal sink. The Garden Room, with a rose garden theme overlooking the woods, includes both queen-size and double beds, each adorned with a Jenny Lind headboard, sleeping up to four guests.

For extended stays, there are two charming cottages also on the premises. Fern Glen Cottage features a great room, small loft, free-standing woodburning fireplace, small enclosed front porch, air conditioning, and a large screened porch overlooking the woods. There is a dual king-size bed on the main floor and three twin beds in the loft, sleeping up to five guests. This completely furnished housekeeping cottage includes a fully equipped kitchen, cable television, and charcoal grill. The Fern Creek Cottage has three bedrooms complete with two queen-size beds and one set of twin bunk beds plus a living room, kitchen, screened porch, air conditioning, cable television, and a charcoal grill.

A "sin"sational full breakfast featuring home-baked goodies from the kitchen is available to bed and breakfast guests, served between 8:30 and 9:30 a.m. Weather permitting, breakfast may be served on the spacious deck, which overlooks the gardens, gazebo, spacious lawn, and surrounding woods. Otherwise, it is served on the enclosed three-season porch or in the formal dining area by the fireside.

Hospitality is a specialty at the inn, with personal attention given to your every need.

With close beach access to Lake Michigan, water activities are abundant. Ample parking for your boat is available. Your pleasure may be spending time at the beach, shopping, fishing, golf, or enjoying special local events. Hiking and biking can be enjoyed on the 34-linear mile Kal-Haven Trail State Park. Park your treasured bicycle in the little red barn. Your hosts take pleasure in directing you to the finest restaurants, quaintest shops, and the best fruits and vegetables in season.
