Beautiful property, lovely hosts

Dennis and Jim's home was absolutely lovely. I couldn't have asked for a better view. Breakfast was wonderful every morning. Jim and Dennis were happy to share their knowledge of the area and make suggestions about what to do during the off season. One thing to note about the 2nd floor suite - the living area is lofted so if others are downstairs you will hear them. Not an issue if you are out and about but just something you should know.

A 5 star stay

The setting of the house is beautiful along the river. I wish we had more time to enjoy the yard and gardens but there was so much to do in nearby Saugatuck, Douglas, Fennville, and Holland since the location is central to all these areas. Our suite and the 2nd floor were relaxing and very clean. Jim and Dennis are superb hosts and breakfast every morning was like eating at a 5 star restaurant-chef’s kiss! We’ll be back!

Serene setting; convenient location

This home has a unique combination of a quiet setting while being very close to area restaurants, activities. The beautiful views right on the Kalamazoo River are a constant reminder that you're on vacation. Dennis and Jim are very welcoming while giving privacy. The bedroom, bath and living area of the suite were well furnished, clean, and comfortable; being part of a beautiful home filled with art. Breakfasts are exceptional in taste and presentation to start the day; also a way to converse with other guests. We plan to return.

The Perfect Stay

Dennis and Jim are absolutely incredible hosts and the property was amazing. Our room was well furnished (lovely art all over the home), bed was very comfortable, and shower pressure was perfect. In addition to the common areas, Eric and I really enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and Eric especially loved the dock and subsequent fish he caught. Dennis and Jim gave us the best recommendations for exploring the area and for restaurants, I highly recommend taking their referrals. In addition to being wonderful hosts, we had great conversation with them and the other guests during the gourmet breakfasts and wine/cheese times. We're looking forward to our return!

Excellent B&B, great experience with our stay

This is a very pleasant and peaceful bed & breakfast with two truly great hosts. Everything was perfect with our stay. The indoor accommodations and the daily breakfasts were superb. The outdoor property is scenic and provides great views and direct access to the Kalamazoo River. Enjoyed using the available kayaks to spend some relaxing time on the river. Definitely plan to return.

An excellent location to relax and unwind

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at Taste on the Lakeshore. Dennis and Jim are well deserving of their Super Hosts designation. They served exceptional breakfasts with fresh fruit each morning and provided spot-on recommendations for places to eat and interesting activities in the area. The spacious and comfortable accommodations coupled with the tranquil landscaped grounds on the water were a welcome retreat.

Wonderful Few Days

A fantastic few days getaway. The property is wonderful and the location is perfect - right on the river with great patio and outdoor space. I can't say enough good things about our hosts Dennis and Jim - they are the epitome of hospitality. The breakfasts cooked up by Dennis are worth going for alone! Our accommodation was spotless and very well appointed. We could not have asked for better.

Beautiful property operated by wonderful hosts.

Every 5-star review for this property is spot on. Its photographs do not do justice to the beauty of this home and its location. The house is spacious, exquisitely appointed and immaculate. And its location on a bend in the Kalamazoo River is remarkably beautiful. The hosts Jim and Dennis are two of the nicest people you would want to meet. They are interesting, informative and their recommendations for places to go, things to do and restaurants to frequent were completely accurate and we tried to follow all of them. And their gourmet breakfasts each morning were beautifully presented and just fantastic. We have stayed in many B&B’s over the years but this place, hands down, by far, was the best, and we’re already scheduled to return in the fall. We cannot recommend this property highly enough.

Like staying with long time friends

My husband and I stayed at Taste of the Lakeshore for a week. We felt we were very well taken care of and had very clean and comfortable accommodations. Dennis and Jim are wonderful hosts. Our breakfast was yummy every morning with plenty to last the whole day. During breakfast it was nice to have conversations with the other guests and get to know them. Everyone was friendly and relaxed. We used the kayaks on the river and enjoyed the gas fire pit at night. We felt at home and would stay with Dennis and Jim anytime. There are 3 different suites available in different sizes. Enjoy your stay!

Love This Property and the Hosts

Dennis and Jim make it all happen. As guests, we palpably felt like we are a cherished part of their existence. Everything is luxe, attention to detail is extraordinary. We would stay again, and we will. Is it possible to call VRBO hosts friends after a few days? Resoundingly, yes.
