We had a very nice stay at Yelton. The room was very clean and the breakfast and amenities were amazing. Victoria greeted us and was an outstanding host. Yelton is within walking distance of everything and is a very relaxing place if you want to stay in.

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.

Cozy B&B with fantastic location
Great stay. B&B is literally located across the street from Lake Michigan. Our stay was in October, so not beach weather, but that in no way diminished our enjoyment of the cozy room and great location. Easy to walk to shopping and restaurants in downtown South Haven (but if it's cold and rainy, maybe just drive 😉).

A meticulously put-together and beautiful place.
It was the best experience I had in a bed and breakfast so far. The rooms are beautiful, common areas as well, and breakfast is delicious. Even the complimentary chocolate gives an extra touch that makes your stay an unforgettable experience.
Highly recommend this place. Would stay here again.

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.

Super clean.
Great location. Steps from the lake. Place is super clean. Breakfasts were delicious as were afternoon treats. Victoria was very accommodating.
We were there in the off season so it was very quiet and peaceful. About 10 minutes from town.

We happened to be the only guests staying there mid week. The property was safe, quiet, and extremely clean. The breakfast was prepared every morning were gourmet.
The only negative was the shower was a little small and the temperature was difficult to regulate. Loved that it was right across the street from the lake.

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.

Close to the beach and downtown. Will stay here again. Only minor thing was no access to ice nor a freezer but it is a B&B. Breakfast was convenient and good. Everyone we interacted with were great. Convenience store is near property. We heard another couples concern that their room was dark and chilly in the main house. We chose the Biltmore room in the guest house and it was great.

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!

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.
