Al is a great host not forgetting Yogi Al’s doggy assistant who welcomes you. Room was comfortable clean and warm. We stayed in Safari. Nothing is too much trouble for Al. We were encouraged to use the kitchen for making tea etc. you are genuinely treated as a houseguest rather than a paying customer. Breakfast was delicious. Go for the omelette fully loaded. Delicious!!! Parking is really convenient too. 10/10

Paul the inn keeper was wonderful! He showed us around when we arrived and made sure we had everything we needed. We even got to meet the resident pooch Yogi. ❤️❤️
We stayed in the Arbor room and it was very nice and cozy. We were able to walk to restaurants and bars and never felt like we needed to drive anywhere. Would definitely stay again.

The Inn was very welcoming and cozy. The instructions for check-in and the amenities were clear and easy to follow. The room was great especially the jacuzzi and fireplace. Very comfortable robes, a variety of toiletries, complimentary water and breakfast were provided. The muffins were amazing. The host was friendly. The location is right near campus and very walkable to restaurants. Would recommend for a romantic get away.

We stayed in two different rooms. Both were nice. We enjoyed the breakfast in the morning and our host was friendly and breakfast was yummy. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the unique tubs in both of the rooms we stayed in. We would definitely stay here again!

Our stay was fantastic! The breakfast was amazing, the room was extremely comfortable, and the staff members were polite and helpful. The highlight was definitely having Yogi, the manager’s dog, hang around during breakfast. I would highly recommend the Wild Goose Inn.

Proprietors were not overbearing, but they took care of all our needs. The room was clean, smartly decorated, comfortable, and well appointed.
The breakfasts were delicious.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Such a unique place off campus! Very cool decorations and great service. Paul was amazing and the breakfast was delicious. Definitely a different experience than just staying at a hotel off the strip.

Cozy, luxurious, & friendly
The Winter Eden room was luxurious and cozy, with wonderful amenities like robes, bath salts, candles, and even a sound machine. Everything was clean and of great quality. The breakfast was top tier, best french toast we have ever had! My husband and I stayed at the Wild Goose Inn for two nights following our wedding. Al and Paul were wonderfully kind even gifted us a ceramic ornament for our wedding! Yogi the dog was a wonderful addition to our stay and he never failed to put a smile on our face with his cuteness! We would highly recommend this bed and breakfast to anyone, and are sure we will be staying again in the future.

Great place to stay
A charming and convenient place to stay. We were in the Great Lakes room which required stairs, but well worth it. Comfortable. Excellent home breakfast of omelettes and homecook yummy muffins. Proprietor was a delight and spent time chatting with us making suggestions for our visit doing research for a book. THANKS

GO, GO, GO!!!
Passing thru Lansing we decided to stay and spend my husband's birthday in the town where he was born. Decided to give this a try for something different and were we glad we did!!! We got in later than we planned, but there was a welcome note with very clear instructions!! We found our room (Summer Safari ) cozy and inviting with every amenity we could imagine!!! Had a wonderful evening and woke up to a breakfast, made to order by Chef Paul and a warm welcome by Al the owner and Yogi the Goldendoodle who works the day shift!!! We got to have coffee and a cigar on the patio and just relax in such a beautifully decorated area with trees and birds right in the middle of college town!!! Highly recommend this bed and breakfast for any and all occasions!! Will definitely be back!!
