Lee and Donna Perry have done an excellent job with this house. My wife and I felt very welcomed and comfortable. Done with a classical artists theme our Monet room was very nice--awesome bed and large bathroom with heated floors. We were free to roam the library, living room and dining room where there were tempting baked goods and coffee/tea... More

This B&B is in a lovely large house, and the hosts have decorated it beautifully, with a minimum of knickknacks. Soothing colors in each room and spacious bathrooms make a good impression. The place was spotless, and there were thoughtful touches throughout, like the coffee and cookie center, an iron and ironing board in the room, good lighting for reading... More

Unfortunately, my partner and I only had one night at Avalyn Garden B&B during a recent trip through Michigan. Lee and Donna were wonderful hosts...warm, friendly, and gracious. Their home is lovely, the accommodations first class, and their breakfast scones mouthwatering (I left with the recipe!). We will be back, and next time for a longer stay!

Avalyn Garden Bed and Breakfast is a hidden treasure conveniently-located walking distance from UM's campus. The property is extremely quaint as each room has a unique theme. Donna and Lee are extremely kind and hospitable hosts and their warmth and attention to detail are unparalleled! The home-cooked breakfasts were delicious and the seasonal decor, coupled with UM-themed treats (such as... More

My partner and I have stayed at B&B's all over the country...I rate this one in the top 5 for warmth, comfort and superb food. I give them an A+ for handling a brief power outage that could have been a bummer but Donna and Lee made it fun. How can you go wrong with the ambience of sitting in... More

I stayed in this beautiful b&b for 4 nights (Wed - Sun) and really enjoyed the courteous hospitality of Donna and Lee. The breakfast was fantastic (especially on the weekend) and always the perfect start of the day. The Santiago room I stayed in was lovely and the bathroom was awesome. In other words, Avalyn Garden is a true gem.... More

We had (only) expected a great location for the family wedding, and we certainly had that. Avalyn Garden was within walking distance of all of the celebration events near the campus. But it was so much more ... everything about this place was terrific! The hosts are the type of folks you'd enjoy getting to know in any setting: they're... More
