Henry Richardi built the Grand Victorian in 1895 in the Queen Anne style, and the front of the house still tells the whole story.
Start at the top of the turret, where the steep shingles rise to a point above its own little balcony. Then drop down to the wide bay window on the first floor, where morning light fills the room behind it.

A new roof this year keeps every one of those lines sharp for the guests still to come. Rooms are open for the fall season. Plan your stay at bellairebedandbreakfast.com 🍂

Did you know the quietest room at the Grand Victorian sits toward the back of the house?

The Victoriana Room pairs pink-and-ivory wallpaper with a white iron queen bed and its own private bath. After a day out chasing fall color, it's an easy place to wind down.

Some of the best spots up north are the quiet ones most people drive right past.

Antrim Creek Natural Area is a short drive from the inn. Clear water runs over stone through the woods on its way to Grand Traverse Bay, and on a cool fall morning you can have the trail almost to yourself.

Pack a thermos, take the long way back through the color, and settle onto the porch when you get home.

Old houses ask a lot of the people who love them.

This year the Grand Victorian got a brand-new roof. The new shingles sit over the same gables and gingerbread trim Henry Richardi built in 1895.

Leann and Jake bought this house almost five years ago to bring it back to what he built and share it with people who appreciate it. Every repair and replanted flower bed is part of that promise.

Fall is a beautiful time to see it in person. Rooms are open for the season at bellairebedandbreakfast.com 🍂

You spend the afternoon chasing color along the back roads around Torch Lake, and by late day the air has a real bite to it. Then the front door swings open, the autumn wreath brushes past, and you're standing under a painted sky full of swallows.

Kick off your boots at the foot of the carved staircase Henry Richardi built in 1895, warm your hands, and swap stories about the best stretch of maples you found.

Fall in Northern Michigan is worth the drive, and our rooms are open for the season. Plan your stay at bellairebedandbreakfast.com

The sign hanging on our porch pretty much sums up the house rules: Sit & Relax.

Grab a wicker chair next to the mums and pull a throw over your knees while the leaves drift down across the yard. Cool fall afternoons are made for exactly this.

Our rooms are open for the season, and the porch is waiting. Plan your stay at bellairebedandbreakfast.com

This is what the streets around the Grand Victorian look like right now.

The maples around the neighborhood have gone full orange and red, and every walk downtown turns into a slow one. Bellaire makes a great home base for color drives too, with Torch Lake and the hills around Shanty Creek a short trip away.

Peak color doesn't last long, and our rooms are open for the season. Plan your stay at bellairebedandbreakfast.com

Picture pulling into Bellaire on a crisp fall afternoon and catching your first look at the house.
The red turret rises above the trees while the maples along the street glow orange and gold. Where would you head first: the wraparound porch, or a walk downtown?
Fall color is at its best around Bellaire right now, and our rooms are open for the season.

Henry Richardi built the Grand Victorian in 1895, and he clearly had an eye for detail.

Look up at the side of the house and you'll find a second-story porch tucked under its own arched roofline, with gables above it. This week the old maple out front turned bright gold right behind it all.

Fall color is at its peak around Bellaire right now, and our rooms are open for the season.

Did you know only one room at the Grand Victorian has a balcony of its own?
The Balcony Room opens onto a private balcony above Richardi Park. Inside, a hand-carved headboard rises nearly to the wallpaper border, with a marble-topped washstand beside it. Step out with your morning coffee and watch the trees across the park change color.
It's one of our most popular rooms, especially in fall.
