Inns - Our Favorite Romantic Lake Michigan Vacation Spots



Rear entrance to Lakeside Inn, Lakside, Michigan.

For us a romantic Lake Michigan vacation is usually a stay at a cozy little inn. I guess it's that were getting older but the smaller crowds, and slower pace is what we enjoy most. The nice thing is that there are plenty of the charming older ones to choose from.

Lakeside Inn front porch, Lakeside Michigan. Our favorites are those that were built during the Arts and Crafts period. The Gordon Beach Inn and Lakeside Inn near Union Pier were built in the 1920's. Recently renovated a stay in these inns is like stepping back in time. This kind of charm and character really makes for a romantic vacation on Lake Michigan.

Look for a Lake Michigan inn that has a great lobby or common room with a fireplace, books, and board games. My wife loves to throw on jeans and a sweatshirt, grab a book and a cup of coffee and lounge in the lobby. You always meet some great folks and share some interesting stories.

If your looking for a charming place for a wedding, these Inns with all their charm and character are the perfect spot. Many have experienced staff to help you plan and organize.

We will keep you updated as we seek out more of these great old Inns on Lake Michigan. They really are the ideal Lake Michigan vacation or getaway spots.
