Bed & Breakfasts
Near Lake Michigan
Near Lake Michigan
Bed & Breakfasts offer a level of intimacy, comfort, charm, and relaxation you don't get in a hotel or motel. Most have a comfortable living and dining space, and many have outdoor common areas such as a yard, gardens, and gazebos available for relaxing or reading. You also have a better opportunity to meet other travelers and make new friends at a bed and breakfast. Breakfasts are included and a major attraction since many provide excellent fresh foods from local producers. After staying at a wonderful bed and breakfast you may never want to see the inside of a hotel again. Our list is arranged by towns from south to north along the Lake Michigan shoreline to easily see nearby alternatives if you can't get a booking at a favorite B&B. Or you may just want to stay a little longer and explore further up the coast once you've experienced the relaxing beauty of lake effect living.
