Nestled at the foot of a quiet residential
street, Twin Oaks Inn promises guests a relaxing stay at an historic bed and
breakfast in Saugatuck—a favorite Michigan tourism destination. Nearly 150
years old, the cozy B&B once served as a boarding house for
rough-and-tumble lumbermen. Today guests unwind year-round in a Victorian-style
inn that combines the warmth of antique furnishings, with all the modern
conveniences.
A graceful oak banister leads guests to six
beautifully appointed guests rooms. Each warm and cozy room offers a king-size or
queen-size bed, private bath, air conditioning, WIFI, and TV/VCR, with access
to a library of more than 700 films for movie buffs. A Jacuzzi suite is also
available for the ultimate in relaxation.
The remainder of the inn is just as
inviting. A family-style table in the dining room beckons guests to mingle
while enjoying a full breakfast, highlighted with homemade baked goods. Guests
partake of evening refreshments in the comfortable common room, where a
fireplace radiates warmth during the off-season. They can lounge on a screened
porch or enjoy a glass of wine in an outdoor hot tub. The yard is also conducive
for guests interested in pitching a game of horseshoes.
Guests who want to venture beyond the inn’s
calm refuge are only a block away from bustling downtown Saugatuck and all it
has to offer—activities, attractions, shops, art galleries, and restaurants.
The inn provides bikes for the convenience of guests to explore the area, which
includes the nearby village
of Douglas. A bike ride
around the harbor will takes guests to the impressive shoreline of Lake Michigan.
Collaborating with other local B&Bs,
Twin Oaks offers many special events during the off-season under the auspices
of Grand Escape Inns of Saugatuck—murder mysteries, progressive dinners, and a Valentine’s
Sweetheart Sampler weekend.
Twin Oaks Inn combines the right mix of
history and hospitality to guarantee guests a memorable stay in Saugatuck.
