Amazing as always! We have stayed in 4 out of 6 rooms at the Wild Goose and loved every one. Each room is unique. The care that they put into the details is charming. Breakfast is amazing. Yogi (the owner's dog) is the best good boy. This is our favorite not so far away getaway.

Every detail about the Wild Goose Inn was wonderful! The house is beautifully appointed and extremely comfortable. It is clear from the little touches everywhere from fresh flowers, gas fireplaces , sound machines and large jet tubs with salts ready to use that the owner and his staff understand how to make their guests comfortable. We booked 3 rooms for our daughter's graduation from MSU and our stay was wonderful! Only wish our weather had been better to be able to enjoy the private patios and fire pit! Oh and don't sleep thru the homemade breakfast, where again, the attention to detail was lovely and appreciated! ||We will return again!

This is the cutest b&b! The innkeeper, Al, is super friendly and accommodating! We missed breakfast ( didn’t want to leave our relaxing room) and he packaged up warm muffins and offered coffee for us. We have stayed in three rooms now that are all charming and unique! Can not recommend this enough. And we love saying hi to yogi the dog!

My wife and I just spent a night here, and it was fantastic! I was initially concerned it might be noisy, but it was wonderfully peaceful. We wanted privacy, and that’s exactly what we got. The home-cooked breakfast was perfect, and Al was an exceptional host who genuinely cares about his guests. Highly recommend this spot for a couple’s getaway!

Wasn't sure what to expect with this place being right on campus, but it was a good find. The room was interesting and comfortable. The shower and Jacuzzi were great. Some serious ingenuity went into the layout of our room. Also was super close to parking, which was a paid lot, but they validated parking for 2 vehicles. Breakfast omelette was awesome.... fresh fruit... Paul was an attentive server and friendly as hell. The dog kept me company during breakfast (he's a polite beggar lol). You would have to pay me well and give me some time to find something bad to say about this place.

Wild Goose is a gem. You can’t beat the customer service. Al, Paul, (pretty sure his name is Paul), and sweet little Yogi Doodle, seem to genuinely love what they do. The place is homey but still feels like a get away. Has the best tub I’ve ever been in. Endless thoughtful details through the decor. The muffins at breakfast are made with love. I mean I could just go on. Only two more rooms for me to cross of the list (Great Lakes and Summer Safari) and I have loved the other four. Just had to add that the goose pick to eat the fruit with at breakfast makes me feel a good combination of fancy and happy, and to have a serving of 5 different fresh ripe fruits for breakfast might be one of the highlights.

The room looked just like the pictures. It was super clean and absolutely so charming! The whole Inn was charming. We checked in after hours and they had everything ready for us and personalized, clear directions. The breakfast was delicious - I wish I would have had a to-go box. Also you cannot beat the location - awesome! It was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish. I absolutely recommend the Wild Goose Inn B&B! I will 100% stay here again!

This is one of the best bed-and-breakfast locations my husband and I have ever stayed in! I have been eyeing this location for years, and regret not having gone sooner. The photos on the website do not do it justice. The owner, Al, has done an exceptional job creating a first class B and B in the heart of downtown East Lansing. He even came out and cleared snow off of our car in the morning. The breakfast was five stars and the rooms are extremely special. We loved the fireplace, Jacuzzi tub, and balcony. We can't wait to come back and use the courtyard in the summer. We are already looking at booking our next stay!

Everything was fabulous!! The history of the B&B and the owner and his team is fascinating so be sure to ask!! We opted for one of the rooms on a main floor. It was very colorful with lots of incredible art. Our particular room was divided into 3 spaces. Upon entering there was a small foyer with an open closet to our left. It had a luggage rack and room for hanging clothing and Luxurious bathrobes that were soft and cozy !! A few steps took us to a hall-there was a cove with a commode to the left, soft lighting and a towel rack supplied us with high quality towels and washcloths including dark washcloths embroidered with "make up removal". Left a few steps and there was a large marble vanity with delightful products to meet all your needs. I was surprised to find a huge shower, w/plenty of seating and showerheads that were actually located in the ceiling as well as a large oval shower head that you could sit under. Going back just beyond the entrance was the actual bedroom. Mind you there were areas carved out of the wall along the way with statuary ....everything was so unique!! I felt like I was in Europe, We had a queen size bed, and most importantly, high-quality sheets and bedding, which is really important to me. There were a couple of windows covered with beautiful drapery for privacy. One of our windows was quite near the courtyard and had a very cool sculpture hanging from a tree. There was a comfy loveseat along with a reasonably sized television. In a whole separate interior section of the bedroom, there was a bathtub. This was no ordinary tub. It was huge like easily fits two people, but could fit more.. it was jetted with multiple jets. I had never seen a tub like . The first night we were startled by what sounded like a huge fan but was actually designed to blow out any water or dampness that was in them to keep them functioning well. I found this out when I got up to investigate what was going on over near the tub,there was a sticker that explained-I had not noticed it earlier, but this happened nightly about 9 PM whether you use the tub or not. I was incredulous. You could expect that every suite was individually decorated, but all have comfort and luxury as key components. I'm thinking I'm going to run out of space but want to comment on the delicious cooked to order breakfast. It was exactly that. Omelettes, oatmeal, eggs cooked anyway you wanted along with fresh fruit and freshly baked muffins that were still warm. The coffee was a little strong for me, but I think most people would find it very satisfactory. We highly recommend this but bed-and-breakfast if you're ever in the East Lansing area in fact, we would even travel a few hours to get to it. We plan to return soon!!! Pics are owner photos.

Bed and breakfast places are stuffed with pillows and reek of perfumed candles. They serve breakfast late in the morning and don't offer guests a big choice of what to eat. Everything is sweet, sugary sweet. You can tell that I'm not a fan. Let's make an exception for the Wild Goose Inn! It's very comfortable, and I say that despite the fact that I was in a room that was dominated by a huge jacuzzi that I never had occasion or desire to use. (When I first arrived, I thought immediately that it would be better if the jacuzzi space were occupied by a small desk but otherwise left empty.) At the Wild Goose, the innkeeper is a genuinely nice person who bends over backwards to be accommodating. Don't hesitate to let him know what you need or prefer; odds are, he'll be able to deliver. One negative of my stay is that it included a weekend night when I was awakened by what sounded like a large thumping fraternity party -- and went on until 2AM. I dealt with the issue by bringing out my noise-cancelling headphones. The headphones were the perfect hack: I fell right back to sleep. The next morning, I asked the Innkeeper about the noise. He hadn't noticed anything out of the ordinary because his apartment is in the basement. He told me that I should have just phoned his cell number (which is furnished to all guests and in fact is displayed outside the building near the front door), even in the middle of the night. I learned that noisy parties are illegal in EL after 11PM and that he would have been happy to phone up the police, who then would have shut down the party. The bottom line is that I was delighted with the Wild Goose Inn. This establishment easily merits the Kenneth R seal of approval.

We have stayed at numerous b&bs in Michigan, Wild Goose tops them all! First- excellent location. Park your car (for free!) and walk to everything. Second- the room; we stayed in the upstairs Summer Safari. Beautiful room with a super comfortable queen bed, loveseat, tv and jacuzzi tub. The tub is more than generous enough for both of us. There is a cute little balcony, designed for two. The morning breakfast is heavenly and by far the best B&B breakfast in the state. This getaway was nothing less than perfect. If I could add anything, it would be a small refrigerator and coffee maker- the closet looks like a great space for this. Enjoy, we did!

I was looking for a hotel close to the MSU campus so I could take my daughter for a tour. I found the Wild Goose Inn on Yelp and saw how quaint it looked and read the great reviews. The proximity to campus is the best you will ever get. It's next to municipal parking, which the Inn covers, and it is by the MSU Bookstore. There are quite a few popular restaurants nearby, which are all well under a mile away and easily walkable. Insomnia Cookies is very close and we enjoyed some amazing cookies. Highly recommend for those with a sweet tooth! We choose a Friday check in and a Saturday check out, with the intent of touring the campus Friday morning and Saturday afternoon. Friday and Saturday selections have a higher rate. We did not count on pouring rain and dreary weather. So what would have been a walking tour became a driving around on campus in a car tour. But we rolled with it. We also failed to consider that being on a college campus by businesses and parking lots and waking paths frequented by students on a Friday night would not be without some noise. I think if we both would have been tired we would have fallen asleep easily and not been bothered. But since we both were wide awake we did hear boisterous students screaming and shouting as they walked by intermittently until well after bars closed. So we did truly get a campus experience! I do not know if every weekend would be like that, but I imagine football weekends would be worse, but it is certainly something to consider if you are a light sleeper. High quality earplugs might be good to throw in your bag, just in case. When we arrived at check in, which is at 4pm, we found an envelope with a key and the parking voucher. Our room, called The Spring Meadow Jacuzzi & Fireplace Suite was on the first floor literally a few steps from the front door. The rooms are not large, but the layout is clever and we enjoyed the amenities so much! The room is perfect for 2 people. Next to the bed was a cozy loveseat, which pulls out into a twin sized bed. I called to get sheets so that we could each have our own bed. When we returned from dinner the bed was made with a thick memory foam pad added on top and fresh flowers added to the table. Both beds were super comfortable with crisp fresh sheets. There was a gas fireplace which we enjoyed as well. The bathroom has a long countertop with a beautiful glass sink bowl and it was a high countertop. The shower was gorgeous with a soft rock floor and a tile sculpture of a person, called a Matawi Tile, both in the shower and another one outside the shower. Very unusual and unique touch. The shower was nice with 4 shower heads and a built in seat. But the best feature and the reason we selected this particular room was for the jacuzzi. The brick grotto alcove with the jacuzzi is stunning! There are 3 lighting options. You can light the tea lights inside of the lanterns, turn on a bright light or you can turn on the stars. The ceiling has a round recessed area that is painted blue like the sky with white lights which are the stars. The jacuzzi has surprisingly powerful jets. I was expecting a jetted tub, so I was very pleasantly surprised and pleased to see a real jacuzzi! Since the jacuzzi is an alcove w no door, depending on who you are traveling with, you might consider if it is a bathtub you will use sans clothes, or a jacuzzi where you will wear a bathing suit. My daughter and I brought bathing suits. It says it is 2 person. It does fit 2 people, but people are all shapes and sizes, so it might not fit two if the people are larger. We got in like sardines and made it work. The next morning at breakfast we were greeted by the hosts, as well as a beautiful dog, who was very polite and well behaved. The hosts were wonderful with a great sense of humor. We were offered tea or coffee, a fresh fruit bowl and some muffins. We had a choice of eggs any way, an omelette, oatmeal or French Toast. We both chose the French Toast. It was delicious! The outside has a patio with pavers and a fire pit. It was too cold and too wet for us to go outside. But in the summer and fall it would be nice to sit outside by the fire. Check out was 11am and we packed up and thanked the hosts and were on our way. We had a great time and really enjoyed our jacuzzi. The room pricing is higher than a hotel cost. The pricing takes into account the included full breakfast, the parking fee, the jacuzzi, the location which is directly on a college campus, where parking is expensive and hard to find, and the close proximity to the football stadium, which is a mile away. Highly recommend!

Having stayed here a few times already 2020-2021. I've never really considered myself a bed and breakfast sorta-person. I must simply state that this place is a true gem. I've seen 4 of their 6 rooms and they are always very clean, disinfected, stocked, and incredibly well maintained. The Wild Goose morning breakfasts have always been as good as homemade can be. Nothing like waking up every morning of every stay to the smell of some delicious home cooking. I very much appreciate their hot coffee or hot tea as it is just steps away from each room, ready to fill your cup and ready start your day off right. Side note; the French toast is ridiculous... YUM. All the rooms I've seen have been equipped with WiFi and smart TV''s where I can log on into Netflix or prime and watch movies or shows in complete and total comfort. Each room has a theme or a vibe that is quaint, charming, well organized and functional. PERFECT LOCATION. If you have your own car or a rental car the parking is secure and it's free. The Wild Goose is in perfect proximity to anything and everything MSU related. You are an easy walk to many restaurants, bars, shops and even an art gallery. There is no other place that I would want or need to stay so long as this gem of a B&B is here. I guess I'm now a bed and breakfast person.

This is a hidden gem nestled in East Lansing. You'll find Wild Goose Inn to be a near perfect bed and breakfast. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with dark wood, cozy fireplaces, beautiful decorations (we went during Christmas time), and check in information specific to your room. We stayed in the Winter Eden room. You may recognize the bathtub room; it's become social media famous. There were fresh flowers waiting in a vase, toiletries in the bathroom, extra towels, blankets, and pillows, a large TV, and a beautiful electric fireplace stove. A small, private balcony would prove a wonderful coffee or wine spot in warmer weather. Little thoughtful touches were everywhere! They supply bath salts, matches, and a corkscrew. The bathtub was huge with lots of tiny jacuzzi jets. There was ample hot water for baths and showers. The room had a lot of space and we were surprised that there was a queen bed. Perhaps a king would fit? We didn't even turn on the TV while we were there! Bring a good book or audiobook and between the fireplace and tub, you won't need it. Downstairs holds a sitting room with a fireplace, the breakfast area with complimentary water bottles for your stay there. We ordered the French toast and an omelette for breakfast. It came with toast, fresh fruit, and coconut bran muffins that looked like they had just popped out of the oven. There is a courtyard outside that our balcony overlooked and a second guest house (the Gosling). Parking is in a large lot next-door and they validate it. There is lots to do within walking distance, with plenty of places to eat and things to do. Al, the inn keeper, and Paul were so kind and attentive! They clearly take a lot of pride in Wild Goose Inn and they really outdid themselves. Everything about our stay was perfect and I can't wait to return.

Had the most wonderful stay, the winter Eden room was so beautiful pictures don't do it justice. The owner is extremely friendly and the whole vibe is so awesome.

This is the most beautiful room I've ever stayed in and I can't WAIT to book another weekend. Everything was absolutely perfect. We stayed in the "Autumn" room which has a 2-person hot tub, shower with dual heads, a fireplace AND a patio. I could stay here forever. Like, seriously. Can I live here? The service was impeccable and the breakfast was homemade with love. I will let the photos speak for themselves. Book your mini getaway ASAP.

If you're lucky enough to book a room at the Wild Goose Inn then you are Inn-deed lucky! This awesome B&B located in the heart of downtown East Lansing is hands down da BESTest Bed & Breakfast! They've got six beautifully seasoned themed rooms all equipped with a jacuzzi and fireplace! Take your pick...Winter Eden, Summer Safari, Spring Meadow, Autumn Arbor, Indian Summer and Great Lakes. I've seen and love them all but my fav is Summer Safari. Just stayed in Winter Eden for the first time and omg...the giant jacuzzi was in a special room of its own with skylights above...truly a secret and relaxing sanctuary! One of my absolute fav things about this inn (other than their yummy and fresh breakfasts served each morning) is the courtyard. It's so private and a beautiful place to gather day or night. The fire pit is an added plus in the evening...but let's not forget about the front porch - another awesome gathering alternative with lots of comfy seating. All in all...I love this pace and can't conclude without a shout out to the owner Al and his amazing team! Y'all ROCK and make the Wild Goose Inn a truly wonderful and memorable experience! Can't wait to come back!

I can't believe we just found the best B&B in Michigan. Just celebrated our 44th anniversary here. We were in the Autumn arbor Suite and it is amazing!! We were greeted by Yogi the golden doodle and Al our gracious host. We were immediately struck by the beautiful woodwork, furnishings and lighting. The grounds were lush and vibrant with an amazing array of flowers, trees and plants. Our room even had a fresh floral arrangement! The room was so whimsical, clean and inviting we wished we could have stayed longer. We did linger over a wonderful breakfast of fresh fruit, warm muffins and homemade French Toast. The little details like the pottery with the Wild Goose Inn logo and the flying goose fruit picks just delighted us. So sad to say goodbye to Al and Yogi but we will be returning soon.

My wife and I went here for a nice romantic getaway, the bathtub was fantastic along with the shower! The staff was very friendly the breakfast was pretty good. But! if you are a light sleeper then bring earplugs, what was a failure to mention to us was the college kids partying like it was 1999, I awoke to kid's yelling and music still going on well after two in the morning, so drifting off to sleep was a tad bit difficult. Either way I would go again but would take a melatonin to sleep through the night but hey that's just me.

Yelp
This is a little gem of a bed and breakfast tucked away in the heart of the city, close to everything, but feel a world away. Al was very hospitable and cooked a tasty handmade breakfast. The rooms are very quaint and cozy. The little extras make it special from the plush bathrobes to the biomedics sound machine. Definitely a must stay when in the area. Very clean, reasonably priced, and parking vouchers given for free parking during your stay. Close to the bike trails and parks in the area as well as plenty of local restaurants.

Yelp
This place is awesome, the host was super gracious and inviting. He was quick to show me around and help me find a better room than I had booked. We've stayed there twice now, and have seen 3 rooms. All the rooms are wonderful and inviting. The one he showed me was larger and had some extra features. My wife was surprised and it's always been one of her favorite places to stay. We plan on returning soon.

Yelp
Wow!! My boyfriend and I stayed just one night at the Wild Goose and loved the jacuzzi and comfortable bed and robes. We were by far the youngest people there but it was still a beautiful and quiet place to relax. My only quam was with the window by the shower that was distorted but you could still see through it into the hallway which was a little off putting. There was a cute dog at breakfast ..Yogi Bear!! So sweet!! And by the way... breakfast was amazing and you get a lot for what you pay for the stay. I paid more for a hotel in Frankfurt and didn't get even close to the service and luxury I had at the wild goose. I would highly recommend. They had so many sweet details that it made a truly unforgettable stay!

Absolutely stunning rooms and exceptional service from both the owner, the waiter, and the wonderful dog. Will definitely be staying here again!!

This is a great place to stay. We were in town to see family and they recommend it to us. It's in town but once you step inside, you feel like you are in the wilderness. The service we received was top notch and the breakfast was delicious. Our room had a spacious Jacuzzi tub, an outdoor private patio, dual shower heads and a fire place. The fire place gets things warm fast (we had to turn it off for a bit). I'd stay here again.

My friends stayed there last night and just rave about the inn and it's incredible proprietor Al. We visited with them at the "Goose" and my wife and I were blown away by the details. We sat out by the fire pit in the courtyard and enjoyed the incredible ambiance. This is truly an incredible place to go and stay. Don't miss out on this AMAZING place!!!

Yelp
This is and has been one of the greatest places one can stay when you're on campus. This particular Bed and breakfast is nothing that i've been able to compare to. The owner of the bed and breakfast does a great job taking care of this property. Despite all the college partying this is a unique place to visit when you're on campus at Michigan State University. The one room we booked was the Winter eden. The winter eden has to be the best room. It features a jacuzzi (as other rooms do) room that has a little fireplace and probably the most privacy. It's one of the rooms on the second floor. Breakfast and service is first class here. The blueberry muffins are so delicious and fresh. The owner bakes them daily. The rooms are very clean as well. Be sure to book online and check out the virtual tour. It helps to figure out which room suits your tastes.

Yelp
Amazing friendly staff, who are very helpful. First I booked a room and changed my mind for which room I wanted and they were very accommodating and changed my room. Also I wasn't going to make the 4-8pm check in time and they said no problem and made it so I could check in an hour late. Very homey and cute rooms. Had the winter eden room and it was amazing. Cleanliness is major for me and everything was spotless, tub was spotless, and I checked the glasses (like I always do) for lipstick stains and there were none. I've only been checked in for 5 hours and I'm already very pleased. Great place!

Yelp
This is the perfect place to stay in East Lansing. It is walking distance to everything you'd want to see on campus. The Inn Keeper is so incredibly friendly and hospitable. The rooms are clean and decorated in a unique, artistic way (each room has a different Michigan or season theme). A word to the wise: book in advance for busy seasons. You won't be able to get a room for homecoming, though. There is a group of alumni that come and rent it out every year. In addition, their breakfast service in the morning is perfect. The pricing may seem like a lot - but when you take into consideration all of the conveniences in terms of being able to walk to everything, as well as the free parking and breakfast, it is totally worth it. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and will definitely go back in the future.

Ron E.

Yelp
What a great B&B. We have stayed here several times and really enjoy the rooms with their tubs and privacy. The breakfast in the morning is top notch and the muffins are worth the trip all by themselves. If you need a weekend away this is the perfect place.

I stayed at wild goose in for four nights and it was fabulous! Al (the owner) so friendly and welcoming and Paul (the manager and cook) was wonderful! The rooms were fun, relaxing, and inviting. You must try the jacuzzi in the room. Each room has a theme which made it difficult to choose but they were all great! The landscape was beautiful, the breakfast was outstanding (especially in the patio), and the location was perfect I can't imagine coming Lancing and not staying at the Wild Goose Inn!!

We absolutely loved our stay at wild goose! It was clean, romantic, and cozy! We loved the staff and the breakfast was so yummy!!! The ambiance is top notch. The perfect little getaway spot in a great location. Can't wait to go back! We stayed in the Winter Eden- amazing space and jacuzzi!!

How can you not love the Wild Goose Inn? I stayed here for two nights when I had a visit at Michigan State University. The inn is located right in downtown East Lansing so you can walk to anything you need. It's basically across the street from MSU. My room (Indian Summer) was cozy. I loved the fireplace - I was there in February! It heated the room up quickly. The bed was cozy and I had plenty of blankets. The bathroom was like a spa in and of itself. I had a two person Jacuzzi tub. Being the only person in the room meant I got to use the tub all to myself. It was a fantastic way to relax at the end of a long day. They have tea lights that surround the tub and matches for you. There is also a dish with bath salts for you to include if you would like. The shower was gigantic and had two shower heads! I loved the bath products that they used as well - very high quality. I only got to eat breakfast there once, and it was fine. Pretty straight forward. I'm not a big breakfast person to begin with. I just had some eggs with cheese and nothing more. Everyone who works there is very friendly and nice. I had an early flight out and hung out with the owner (at about 6:00 am!) in the kitchen while I was waiting for my ride and he was getting stuff ready for the day. Great place. Very laid back.

My husband and I love the Wild Goose Inn. We stay here almost every year. The rooms are clean, the Inn's owner is very kind, and welcoming. He makes you feel at home, and serves an amazing breakfast! I highly recommend the Wild Goose Inn to anyone and everyone.

Yelp
Absolutely wonderful. I don't write reviews but had to figure this out as I had to tell someone. We stayed in the Autumn room and it was amazing. The breakfast was the best I have had in quite some time and the people were incredible. We will be back thanks so much Al.

Wild Goose Inn is simply lovely. If you have visitors from out of town who enjoy a more boutique hotel or artsy experience, point them toward this hotel. I had the opportunity of visiting most of the guest rooms and they are all very different but equally clean and kept well. I felt that each room had a story and something extra special within (one room has access to a huge outdoor space, another has a castle-like bathtub area, etc). My favorite room is the Autumn Arbor located in the newer Gosling portion of Wild Goose. The shower area is huge and romantic, and the bed is out of this world - it's like sleeping in a tree! I've never seen a bed like that one before.

Matt M.

Yelp
This place is just the best!! Have stayed here 7 or 8 times. All of the rooms are fun & different. The service is amazing. Breakfast is awesome. The innkeeper Al really takes care of the place and the guests. Probably the best part is the central location in EL..perfect place to stay for a quick getaway or after an event or night out!

Kitty S.

Yelp
A fantastic gem and the best place to stay in East Lansing. When I was doing comparative shopping for a place to stay close to MSU campus, the pricing of the Inn was comparable to established hotels if not cheaper (other hotel prices fluctuate, and the inn's is more fixed). On top of that, you get free Wi-Fi and a full hot breakfast made to order. Al the Innkeeper is very friendly and accommodating. Although the location is walkable to a dorm that we were moving into, because of our heavy luggages, Al had someone drove us to the dorm. One advice: If you do not see availability online, you may want to call.

Laura P.

Yelp
The Wild Good Inn is a great place to stay when visiting MSU - it's right in East Lansing close to the campus. It has so much charm and character. The Inn Keeper was very welcoming, friendly and attentive to our needs. Each room has a specific theme. I'd highly recommend the Winter Eden room (it includes a gas fireplace and jazucci room). The bed was so comfortable and I loved how cozy it was. Your stay also includes a delicious breakfast w/ coffee.

Megan K.

Yelp
Beautiful place!!! I fell in love with the jacuzzi tub...Ours changed colors and had lights like little stars on the ceiling and a statue pouring out water. Fancy! Of course I had to try the shower too...Dual shower heads and two on the ceiling for a rainfall effect. Great owner. He was funny and friendly...perfect breakfast. Very welcoming place. The owner told us how he had moved the main house to that location...Kinda a cool little fact. :) I'd definitely go back. Kudos to my mom who found this for our girl's night.

Mara W.

Yelp
Excellent accommodations! We stayed here for our first wedding anniversary and loved it. The inn keeper and other employees are very nice and helpful. We loved our room (Winter Eden) and will definetly stay at the Inn again. The decor was themed but far from cheesy; it was tastefully done. Don't forget they offer free wi-fi. We added on a romantic package and was pleasently surprised at all you received in it. My husband loves Gouda cheese now! The skylights, jacuzzi and breakfast where my favorite things!

Sarah O.

Yelp
Amazing overnight stay! We stayed in the Spring Meadow Suite and felt like we were home...a much upgraded home! The jacuzzi was rejuvenating, the shower was incredible, and the whole ambience of the room was just fantastic. Breakfast in the morning was well served and well prepared. Conversing with Al, Sarah, and the rest of the crew was fun and engaging. Best B&B we have been to. Thanks so much!

What a hidden gem right off the beaten path of downtown E. Lansing. The place was clean, comfy, charming, and very quiet. Our room had a gas fireplace, large whirlpool tub for 2, and beautifully appointed furnishings. The owner was friendly and the breakfast rocked with fresh fruit, home baked muffins, and eggs to order. Lovely! We'll be coming back.

This was the second time we've stayed here and both times have been perfect. The rooms are great and well themed. The breakfast the next morning is super yummy (especially the French Toast!) Best of all is the owner. Super accommodating and friendly. We will be staying here many more times and will continue to recommend it to our friends.

Stayed in the Winter Eden room. Had a fantastic stay. The room was very comfortable, and the jacuzzi tub was amazing! We ate takeout from a nearby Thai place on the patio when we arrived. It was nice having so many options within walking distance. The validated parking in the lot next to the B&B is worth at least $20 alone. The owner was very friendly. One of the best places we've stayed. Can't wait to visit again! Give yourself some time for breakfast though.

My girlfriend and I spent a night here for a little romantic getaway, and we have nothing but great things to say. The guy who runs it, Al, and his staff are warm, friendly, and generous. We stayed in Autumn Arbor, which has a switch-on gas fireplace, candles in almost every corner, an awesome bathroom with two shower heads (one a "rain" head), a hot tub with jets and color-changing lights (and bath salt ready-to-go in a dish), and a bed canopy crafted from real wood. The "romance package" we ordered (for $30) included fudge from a great East Lansing fudge shop, as well as champagne, strawberries, cheese, and crackers. Would absolutely stay here again and recommend to anyone.

The Wild Goose Inn is absolutely wonderful. Located in downtown East Lansing, you are just a short walk from the gorgeous MSU campus, restaurants, and shops. Being here in the summer, the inn has beautiful landscaping and outdoor sitting areas. After renting out the whole inn for our family the weekend of our wedding 10 years ago, it was a real treat to come back and visit again. The rooms are unique and well appointed. The bathroom in our Indian Summer room has a double shower head and two person tub with candles and bath salts. Breakfast was great! You start with muffins and fruit. You're able to choose from several items on the menu and we chose oatmeal with dried Michigan cherries and eggs with mushrooms. Delicious! We will come back for sure. You can't beat the location, friendliness of staff, and just all-round gorgeousness of the place.

I came for my niece's graduation from MSU. The accommodations were awesome. I loved every part of the Inn, and the breakfast was delicious. I saved my muffin for the long trip home. If I ever plan to go back to E. Lansing, I will definitely stay at the Wild Goose Inn.

My family and I stayed at the Wild Goose Inn for my son's graduation from MSU. We were so amazed. The Inn is very well kept and has exceptional decorations and accommodations. The owner, Al, is so personable and goes out of his way to make sure you have everything you need for your stay. The breakfast is delicious and they have everything you could want for breakfast that goes above and beyond any continental breakfast you could get at a Holiday Inn. We were so pleased with our stay at the Wild Goose and if we're ever in East Lansing again, it will be the only place we consider staying.

I planned a surprise romantic stay at the Wild Goose Inn for my husband and I to enjoy on a weeknight evening together. From the very beginning of planning our night, Al and his staff went out of their way to respond to any questions I had about reservations, food served for breakfast (I am a ... read morevegetarian), and parking. We stayed in the Autumn Arbor room which was BEAUTIFULLY and uniquely decorated (LOVE THE BED) and included so many extra amenities that we never wanted to leave! Al thought of everything a person would want or need when staying away from home. Our room had lovely flowers greeting us upon our arrival, candles galore, a cork screw, bath salts, soaps and lotions to use in the enormous tile shower, plush robes, and of course the fireplace at the foot of the bed could not be beat. I brought all of our food for our evening and Al was gracious in allowing me to use his kitchen for the final prep before serving. The spa tub was heaven and I would recommend long soaks by candlelight to anyone who stays here in the future. The breakfast left us feeling nourished and full (thank you Paul, we are still thinking about those delicious muffins!) and we wished that we could have been staying many more nights instead of having to check out that day. Our plan is to come back to the Wild Goose at least 2 more times this year and we are already looking at dates on our calendar. Whether you are driving great distances or live locally, we highly recommend this bed and breakfast. We have stayed at many throughout our great state and this inn is at the top of our list! Well done Al!!

This was so much fun. We enjoyed our time and stay. here. We came down late yet they wanted us to make sure we had breakfast. Our room was wonderful. The WE most certainly will be back. The owner and his friends told us about places to eat and visit. I highly recommend this Inn.

I stayed here when I took the bar exam, and it was fantastic. The jacuzzis are really relaxing (so needed!) and you're walking distance from the exam location. I stayed in Summer Safari, and the decor was really fun, and they turned the fireplace on for me. Even the bathroom and shower are impressive - all lovely stone! Breakfast was absolutely delicious, and the staff was very friendly. There's a piano downstairs, too. This place makes me wish I had another reason to go to East Lansing.

Or first time there and had a wonderful experience. Jacuzzi in Winter Eden was relaxing and great breakfast in the morning.

We decided at the last minute to take a "staycation" for our 8th anniversary and booked a room at the Wild Goose Inn (we live less than 10 minutes from here) and I couldn't be happier with our stay. We stayed in the Autumn Arbor suite and felt like we were in our own piece of paradise and removed from the hustle and bustle of downtown East Lansing. The room was absolutely beautiful and romantic - you can tell they take tremendous pride in their B&B. The breakfast was delicious and I loved that there is a small menu you can order from. The owner and staff are super friendly and helpful. I am so glad we took this leap of faith to stay almost in our own backyard and we will definitely be coming back again.

We stayed at the Wild Goose Inn on July 13 and it was fantastic! The guest houses are beautifully decorated and full of great character. We stayed in the Winter Eden room that had a two person Jacuzzi nestled among a bunch of ferns underneath some skylights. What a cool place to spend an evening. The Inn is in the heart of East Lansing but once you're inside the city disappears. The landscaping and architecture are constructed so well that you feel like you've stepped into a quiet country home. We will definitely be going back.
