White Rabbit Inn

When we got here thought place was very close to highway tucked into the trees. Owner met us at the door very nice asked us in, no sooner I stepped in it smelled old and musty .He showed us to our room very small very dated. From laying in bed you can watch someone bathe because it’s right at the foot of bed. Tv is old VHS built into 12in TV cords going to $ 10.00 VCR, Antennae for tv is in the window two channels one you can watch other bad reception. Could not figure out how to play movie in room .Lots of movies to chose from in office free to you to watch in common room or take back to room. This place is a 1950s strip hotel that you would find off side of road in series Route 66 .Me and my wife laid in bed listened to all the road noise sounds as if we where at a rest area trying to catch a nap, for $ 105.00 a night.

Still the best night’s sleep I have ever had away from home. Our host’s, A.J. and Jan are more like old friends that we visit two or three times a year. Going out of season gave us a different perspective on the area. Loved being able to use the fireplace on the chilly (who am I kidding, it was cold!!! LOL) nights.

Made a last minute trip to the Michigan shore over Memorial Day weekend. Spoke to AJ on the phone and stayed at one of the garden rooms. The experience was really nice and laid back. The room came with a large bath tub and AJ has an extensive collection of films. Many of the movies are interesting hard to find older releases on VHS. The room had a really nice wooden bed that reminded us of girlfriends’ furniture growing up in the woods near New Hampshire– and wooden touches throughout. Read comments from folks who have been staying at the bed and breakfast since the early 90s– its great to see a business around for that long. They are doing lots of things right. In the morning there was a good breakfast and birds and squirrels eating on the deck– black, red, grey and brown squirrels. AJ recommended a beach just down the road that wasn’t too crowded despite the holiday weekend. Thanks for a great stay.

Spent a night here last weekend (off season). Very cute and cozy place. Just wish we had made the reservation earlier and gotten one of the rooms with a fireplace and outdoor hot tub! But, that said, our room was charming anyway! The common area is very homey, with tons of movies (current ones as well as classics), snacks, coffee/​tea, games, books (including a well-​worn one on sensual massage), brochures, etc…
A.J. was very friendly. Breakfast included a killer pastry selection from a nearby bakery. They were very helpful about suggesting things to do nearby (wineries, whiskey distillery, restaurants, etc). I also enjoyed reading the journals left in our room. Location is a short walk from the beach and close (by car) to many wineries and good restaurants.
If in the area, I would definitely stay here again. Drive was an easy hour and a half from the city, although it could be nasty in summer construction I’d imagine.

This B&B is amazing. My husband and I spent our anniversary weekend here. It’s quiet and cozy. A.J., the innkeeper, is such a great guy. He’s very accommodating and friendly. He knows all the good places to eat/​drink/​shop/​visit in the area and can make some really good recommendations.
I felt soooo relaxed the entire time we stayed at the White Rabbit. It’s a great place to have some peace and quiet with your honey. The fireplace in our room was a nice touch. In the morning, A.J. serves a delicious breakfast fare. The almond pastries from a local bakery and the bubble gum plums are the absolute best way to start your day! The breakfast area also provides a beautiful view of all the birds and other wildlife coming to have some breakfast that A.J. feeds them on the outside deck.
White Rabbit is within walking distance from the Lake and close driving distance to many wineries and antique shops. But I recommend just touring all the wineries, grabbing a couple bottles of wine, and spending the rest of your weekend at the White Rabbit. You won’t want to leave!

Loved this place hidden away in the woods. We, too, went in November (our anniversary — AND the owner’s anniversary as well) and enjoyed every minute in our wonderful room. It’s very casual and laid back and the management is helpful and accommodating.
