Eating breakfast on the porch while enjoying the cooler temperature was great. The town was very walkable and the pier with the lighthouse and beachfront was a highlight of our trip. If we were in the area again, we would stay here and we highly recommend it.

FABULOUS B&B in central Grand Haven, walking distance to the boutique/restaurant area, super cute and comfy rooms, classic bathrooms with claw foot tubs. All the modern comforts (eg Kurig coffee) with old world charm!

I was traveling through Grand Haven and chose The Boyden house as my overnight stay. This B&B has a lot of local history, is walking distance to downtown activities and convenient to access roads. Clean, kind, quiet, scenic. I will return when I get back to Grand Haven.

A lot of traffic and it sounded like a window was open. My room was on the corner along side both streets. Also, it is an older house but beautiful. You could hear people when they walked around. But I would say in the b&b in the future. Great experience!

We were unable to travel to the Boyden House as we had Covid sweep through our home. I have reached out to the Boyden house ahead of our stay and have heard nothing back.

This was my first time visiting Grand Haven. Boyden House was conveniently located to a number of restaurants and the downtown area, However, the beach was at least a 30-35 minute walk--not the 18 minute as advertised. My room was nicely furnished and clean with updates and a minor repair pending. The bed was very comfortable. In addition to the morning breakfast, a shared kitchen with fridge, microwave, and coffee/tea/bottled water/cocoa/and popcorn was available The area was quiet and there was off street parking. It was a pleasant stay.
