I'm not the "bed and breakfast" type of person. My husband and I were given the May 3-5, 2013 weekend trip as a birthday present. The bed was very comfortable, the food was fabulous, and the people who run the property were very efficient and kind. If you want privacy, you can get it. I wasn't expecting the beautiful location.... More

This was our first time at a bed and breakfast and we loved it! The Carriage House is beautiful, comfortable and accommodating to all our needs. The breakfast was incredible. The house overlooks the harbor and is just a few minutes from town and the beach. We couldn't have asked for a better time!!!

Service, location, food, amenities, etc. Clean and complete. All were grand. Walking distance to the beach, marina, parks & neighborhood. Owners were very helpful with suggestions for dinner. We'll be back, again and again!

I came to the Carriage House by myself on a mini retreat. It was fab! I searched on TripAdvisor beforehand to get some recommendations for B&B's and this one ended up on top of my list. I took advantage of the winter special ($140/night for any room). From the moment I arrived the Inn Keeper, Amy, was such a doll!... More

My wife and I had a simply awesome time here for 3 nights. David and Amy treated us like family and when you stay at a B & B thats how you want to be treated. Breakfasts were very nice and we met many other travelers. We hope to get back in the summer and will definitely stay here again.

And the hosts were extremely helpful and friendly. Wonderful view from our room of the harbor. South Haven is such a great little town, but shhhhhh....... More

My husband and I took advantage of the Carriage House's January special ($140 per night for any room) and enjoyed a winter weekend getaway. With cozy common areas and rooms, it's just as enjoyable in the winter as during the summer months. The location is excellent and you can walk into town or to the beach. Breakfast is served at...

We just returned from our second visit to the Carriage House, and have enjoyed it both times. We definitely will return again, and can highly recommend the accomodations, food and service. Great view of the the water and boats at the docks.

Our room was comfortable and cozy. The downtown area and beach are within walking distance. David served us breakfast and lots of interesting conversation in the morning.We enjoy South Haven in the fall and our stay here began and ended 2 very nice days in Michigan.

My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary. It is definitely the best view in the South Haven area based on the other properties we saw. We had a very nice stay. The owners weren't really around much and it seems they have hired someone else to take care of the day to day responsibilities. That was a little... More
