Lovely setting and beautifully outfitted room. Second floor up stairs. Hosts Jude and Bob were so welcoming and friendly! They both added to our weekend with friends. Room was comfy and nicely sized. Bathroom clean and nice walk in shower. We stayed in the Chamonix room. Breakfasts were delicious and homemade. Excellent stay! Will definitely go back to the Black River Inn!
What a find! Tracey was a wonderful host and an amazing cook! Bed was so comfy & husband Mark made us a fire to enjoy ballgame in the cozy common area. Would absolutely stay there again if in area.
My husband and I planned an impromptu trip to South Haven with our 2 small dogs. ! We hit the jackpot with selecting the right place. Todd was a great resource, answering our questions, giving recommendations and playing host during the weekend happy hour and making breakfast. We can’t wait to come back. Our room was just right. We had a King room. The hotel is very charming!
Great Breakfast, good place for those looking for something other than a “chain” experience. Free guest only EV charging - Tesla & J1772. Nice/responsive staff. Short drive to beautiful downtown with shops/restaurants.
Very nice two night stay! Especially enjoyed the breakfast offerings! The food was good quality and offered many choices. The beds were comfortable and our room was spacious. (We had an arguing neighbor one night ... but the hotel had no control over that). This is a good location to explore both South Haven and Saint Joseph! Western Michigan is a great place!
The heated pool was nice on a chilly day. We decided to stay there instead of going other places. Having the ability to make a campfire and cook s’mores was also big plus. The only thing I would say as a means of improvement is having a ramp going into the large building next to the pool as it was difficult to get up and down the stairs at the time
This is a great place to unwind with a glass of wine and your perfect partner. My wife and I stayed here kinda last minute and ended up with a suite that had a hot tub and fireplace. The view of Lake Michigan was amazing. This is not the newest or most contemporary hotel. In fact it reminded me of the 70's / 80's summer camps but the rooms were super clean and everything worked perfectly. Walls were a little thin so try not to be too loud.
The staff here was amazing also. They jumped started...
Exceeded expectations- which were high! This beautifully renovated historic library is perfectly presented in every way. We stayed in the director's room which was tucked away on the lower level. It was so cozy- just how you may imagine sleeping overnight in a library should feel! Everything is very thoughtfully and intentionally finished. We would have been happy spending the entire stay in the room, but did also venture up to the rooftop for evening cocktails by the fire and morning coffee...
Beautiful location and walkable to downtown Saugatuck. The water pressure was AMAZING and the beds were very comfortable. The robes in the rooms were a very nice touch. 10/10 would stay here next time we visit.
Oh, and breakfast was DELICIOUS!
