    This Is A Great B&B

    September 10, 2012

    This was our first experience at a B&B, and we really chose a wonderful one. Paula and Jerry greeted us right away and made us feel right at home. The property grounds are very well landscaped and includes several chairs for your relaxation. Our room was fantastic! The morning breakfasts are delicious. We plan on going back many more times.

    Perfect getaway!

    March 06, 2012

    Jerry and Paula never disappoint. Garden Grove has been our perfect getaway for about 12 years. We just returned home from our 16th or 17th stay (I'm losing count!), and every visit has been wonderful. The hospitality is great, the rooms and common areas are comfortable and immaculate and the breakfast is superb. We could not wish for a better B&B experience!

    Very comfortable

    February 02, 2012

    Innkeepers were very accommodating, plenty of wonderful food for breakfast. Not too "foo-foo" but very clean and lovely! Comfortable bed and good shower! They provide bicycles and helmets for plenty of day bike rides.

    Outstanding breakfast and a beautiful room

    September 01, 2011

    We have stayed in b&b's about half a dozen times and have never enjoyed such generous and delicious breakfasts. We stayed 3 nights and were delighted every morning to have a lovely basket filled with piping hot and delicious food delivered to our door promptly at 9:30. Each breakfast included a different variety of fresh, perfect berries, melons, and other fruits. Day 1 was Michigan blueberry pancakes with the best scrambled eggs and sausage links. Day 2 was red pepper, zucchini, and cheese quiche accompanied by seasoned red skin and Yukon gold potatoes. Our last day was apricot stuffed french toast with grilled Polish and breakfast sausages. I know this is a lot of detail but the Welsh's really give new meaning to the breakfast part of bed and breakfast! Our room (the Garden Retreat) in the coach house was beautifully decorated and absolutely immaculate. There was a spray of beautiful orange gladiolas to greet us and lots of other thoughtful and classy touches- like lovely soaps and bath salts and assorted teas (my favorite, Constant Comment). The grounds are beautiful with lots of pleasant spots to sit in the shade and read. We ate our breakfasts at one of the umbrella tables. Also enjoyed riding the bikes to the nearby beach. Paula and Jerry have spared no expense in making their b& b a top shelf place to stay. I couldn't recommend it more highly!
