Breakfasts were very good. The common area in the guest house was not maintained; trash accumulated in the sunroom. The property was understaffed which explains some of the deficiencies. Some of the daily amenities promised were not provided.

It’s an obvious location and home that would be perfect for anyone.. but I think windows should be cleaned along with surfaces in both houses. The room where we slept was very clean. Other then that observation, the place was a perfect get away weekend.

Great Location, Charming decor, wonderful service

What a charming and beautiful place!! It's literally across the street from the public beach and a short walk from the down town. The only problem was that the BnB was so nice I felt guilty leaving. We just wanted to lay in the sunroom reading and napping all day. The service was great! The owner was prompt to answer the phone and provided breakfast daily despite her son being in the ICU fighting for his life. That goes above and beyond for service to me and I would 10/10 stay again.

Probably ok to stay here if needed, but would not recommend; has the feel of a large Air BnB rather than the personal touch of a good bed and breakfast/inn. Room was clean, mattress was firm. Property fairly well maintained, but somewhat overgrown. Easy parking. Comfortable sitting area in/near room. Most disappointing was staff interaction who consistently made us feel that we were an imposition. For example, guests are required to call to check in; this is done over the phone with no in-person presence. Likewise after sitting down for breakfast, we were “reminded” that we had to walk to the kitchen to place our order.

Very serene and lovely; however, we stayed at an off peak time. The app is not very useful and there wasnt that personal touch that I love about B&Bs. Very enjoyable, but proabably a one time visit. The town shuts down a bit early for me.

Nice place but if you come in the Spring do not expect anything that they boast on their website. There was no breakfast. Not even coffee. We went down to the kitchen at 8:30 (breakfast is supposed to be from 8-10) and there was no staff around at all. The same 2 muffins and bananas sat out in the foyer for the whole three days we were there… The only staff we saw during our entire three day trip was a maintenance man. No daily brownies or any of that.

The property is beautiful and well maintained, and the location is convenient and quiet. However, I was on edge from the moment of arrival due to hostility regarding smoking on the property. Threats of fines and eviction if one is caught smoking anywhere on the property were over the top, as was the policy about food in the room. The B&B management is clearly more interested in guests following rules than in creating a warm and welcoming environment and appear to have a lot to learn about the "hospitality" industry. We will not return.

Yelton Manor B&B&B&B&B&B

A delightful week stay at Victoria’s exceptionally comfortable, clean, convenient Yelton Manor. Across the street from Dyckman Beach/Lake Michigan and a block away from other beach accesses. A short walk to downtown South Haven and all it offers. To the “B&B” I would add “&B&B&B … &B” for & Breakfast & Brownies & Books … & Betsy (chef). We stayed in the Avery Beach Hotel Suite in the Guest House (shoutout to Phoenix!) and also enjoyed strolling the gardens, neighborhood, and nearby park. An excursion to nearby Douglas and Saugatuck for some finer shopping and dining is worth the short drive. I have a Cable-Nelson upright and was surprised to learn South Haven was the company’s original home. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did!

Great place, great location, very friendly staff. The only down side is that there is no meat with any of the breakfast options. A little bacon or sausage to go with our eggs would be nice for those of us on a low carb diet. P.S., I threw my low carb diet out the window for a couple of days and enjoyed the delicious french toast.
