    The rooms are not fancy but beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was good. Best was the deck overlooking the water and the sunsets.

Looking Glass is a small 5 bedroom Bed & Breakfast perched 79 steps up from the street offering breathtaking views of Lake Michigan, Grand Haven Lighthouse, the pier, and Grand Haven State Park Beach. Whether you take the stairs or the historic electric Trolley up, you will be rewarded with the best views of any Hotel or B&B in Grand Haven.
Looking Glass is perfect for a weekend getaway, anniversary weekend or family vacation. With our unique location, we fit into almost anyone’s vacation plans. From lazy beach tanning and book reading to activity-filled adventure, we can accommodate. We are a great centrally located stay with lots of day trip possibilities only to be able to return for amazing sunsets over the beautiful waters of Lake Michigan. There are plenty of hiking and biking trails within walking distance and even more opportunities just a short drive away. We offer bikes for rent if you want to explore the area a little further. Because of our location across the street from the beach, it’s only fitting that we provide beach towels, beach chairs and beach umbrellas included with your stay.
