What a lovely Inn! We stayed in the Captain's Cottage right next to the Inn, as the Inn was full, and we were lucky to get the last of any rooms. It was beyond our expectations in just how nice it was. Totally immaculate, totally wonderful. The staff are super friendly, the fresh baked cookies in the evening were to... More

The location of the Harbor House Inn in Grand Haven cannot be beat. You are steps from downtown and a short drive, or decent walk, to the beach. Within steps are great restaurants and shops as well. The Inn is beautiful inside and out. Walking back to it during the evening during a recent stay, we were inspired to take... More

The staff was very accommodating and the room was lovely. The homemade caramels are delicious. They make them fresh every day. The breakfast in the morning has a great variety. The innkeeper was a joy to talk with.

We visited Grand Haven during a very rainy, cold, preseason week. The Harbor House Inn was a most-welcome port in the storm! Our room was absolutely lovely. The shared facilities were warm and friendly. The staff was exceptional!

So we read the hotel's (inn's) description and decided to give this inn a try. There isn't anything at all to complain about - except perhaps the over-enthusiastic artistic licence taken in the website description which paints a glossier picture than reality presents. We arrived with high hopes, but found it somewhat over-stated. Pre-arrival we found the inn signage a... More

Stayed one night Jan 2013 with my wife. Room #35 was cozy with a view of the Lake and a nice fireplace. We slept well and also loved the breakfast the next morning. Kind folks! Would definitely recommend and if ever in Grand Haven again, will stay here.

My wife and I selected the HHI for a 4-day get-a-way between Christmas and New Year's based on a recommendation from a friend (they always stay in Room 25). We stayed in Room 23, on the second floor. My wife is not a fan of stairs these days, especially ones with a twist and landing in between. But, once we... More

The Harbor House Inn is not an owner operated B&B in the traditional sense as the owners are a couple of attorneys in Grand Rapids and their investors. Employees who operate the Inn, however, are very capable and personable. They switch-off sharing an apartment on site so someone is always in attendance to meet and greet 24/7. Great place for...
