    A Real Treat

    May 01, 2013

    We really enjoyed our stay in the Garden Suite at Serendipity. The breakfasts were great. We were steps from downtown and the water. Beds were comfortable. Sheets/towels were nice and kitchenette had everything we needed while we were there. Coffee from local coffee house was great as well.

    Delightful and inviting B&B

    April 24, 2013

    Our one night stay at the Serendipity was wonderful. Our room was nicely decorated and featured local art, which was a nice surprise. The bed was very comfortable and the bath towels felt like they were brand new. Enjoying the sun filled front porch was a plus. I rated "dining" 5 stars even though we could not stay for breakfast due to another commitment for brunch. However, when we ventured out in the morning for a walk, David sent us off with a bag of freshly baked scones, which were delicious. We were sorry we could not have had the full breakfast. I think it would have been fantastic! Owners David and June were very hospitable and welcoming. We will definitely stay at the Serendipity again when we are in town.

    Late winter stay

    March 13, 2013

    Judy and David were very nice and then B&B was great. We stayed in the Stableman's suite, which was spacious for the 2 of us. The hot tub and sauna was right outside the door and was great because no one else was using it that night.

    Charming place. Very pleasant experience.

    October 17, 2012

    Serendipity lives up to it's name. A quaint, charming and quiet place to stay. We stayed at the Music Room. Plus points were service, decoration, cleanliness and above all Breakfast. If nothing else, breakfast all by iteself is worth staying there. Egg cassarole, home made biscuits, jellie, Peach cobbler, blueberry muffin and the best was Zucchini Pie. David and June made us feel very welcome. We would however have liked to be allowed to check in just a bit early since were were already there. Place is located right in downtown, walking distance from everything. Would definitely like to go back and experience in summer time. Wish you all the best David and June.

    60 th celebration

    October 13, 2012

    Close to downtown and the rooms were great we had a inclosed porch, 2 bedrooms and 2 rooms to hang out fireplace. The breakfast meal was so delightful in a basket, with individual prtions that were warm, the quiches were yummy. Scones just the right size and good homemade. Fresh cut fruit and OJ. Just refix the 2 steps into the cottage, they are wobbly.

    October 10, 2012

    Serendipity was the best place to stay at for us that weekend because of the amazing location. Everything was within a block or two. The rooms were very clean and David and June were very nice and accommodating. We stayed in the Library suite so it was fantastic to have the refrigerator and kitchenette. We had a wonderful time. If I were to critique it a little... the rooms could be updated a bit, and the food was good but not anything out of the ordinary (think blueberry pancakes and fruit, crustless quiche and fruit). Also the portions were a tad small. I don't eat a lot at all and I was just full. My dad and husband were starving. We loved the privacy of having a separate house and the price was great compared to other Saugatuck B&B's.
