Romantic Couples Only Getaway to South Haven, Michigan
Plan a romantic getaway to South Haven by booking a stay at the charming Inn at the Park Bed & Breakfast.

We stayed in the Sycamore room which is on the second floor and comes with it’s own fireplace & spa quality jacuzzi tub.

These 3 Things in the Holland Museum Shocked Me! How cool!
I never realized all of this existed in the Holland Museum!! 🤯 For a great rainy day activity this spring/summer, keep a visit to the Holland Museum in mind.

And that in addition to paintings, there was fine furniture, clothing, delftware and more to enjoy! Even the local history section was fascinating. On the main floor, I learned more about the once bustling Great Lakes cruise industry, which really fascinated me after finally getting into cruises over the past couple years.
