Our visit was wonderful; we would definitely stay again! The house was clean, beautiful and very well-appointed, the beds were super comfortable, and there were a lot of nice extras that we appreciated, such as a steam shower, bidets, coffee bar, hot tub, and relaxing back patio. Plus, our hosts could not have been more friendly, helpful, and responsive. Thank you Ann and Rick!

This was our second time staying here - great size accommodation, all the amenities you need, lovely outside area and grill, and very quiet, relaxing block. A little bit away from downtown, but Interurban gets you in/out of town, which is a fantastic convenience. We hope to book again soon!

Home Away From Home

This vacation rental truly felt like a home. Everything as described and then some. Our 12 and 14 year old rode bikes down the lane each day. The adjoining road is 30 MPH and very friendly to walkers! We saw deer 4 out of 5 days of our stay. Close to several beach towns and beaches for exploring! Host communication was excellent!

Very Peaceful

This place was great! We really enjoyed all of the relaxing features of the house. My husband and I came here on a babymoon, and we spent the days lounging in the hot tub, watching movies using the nice TV & surround sound, and listening to records. It was a perfect getaway.

Nice little property in the woods! It made for a wonderful time. Close to downtown Sagatuck and Douglas, nice quaint towns. Night time viewing of the stars were something we dont get much of in metro Detroit! Absolutely loved it!

This was our second time renting this property and it was just as excellent as before, possibly better because it was like coming home. Love, love, love everything about this place. So clean, relaxing, private, quiet. Stocked with amenities. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would.

4 night stay for R&R. Very well kept home with numerous upgrades. Heated floor and toilet seats in bathroom were nice! Loved the extra pillows and blankets. Kitchen well stocked with spices, utensils and gadgets. Peaceful setting in the woods, very relaxing. Town is only five minutes away. The dogs loved walking down to the park at the end of the road. The view of Lake Michigan was fabulous. Owner is nearby if needed anything, but seriously, we didn’t want for anything. We would stay again. Thank you for being pet friendly!

Pleasant home nestled in trees

The house was awesome. Many luxury items and safe atmosphere. Such a nice relaxing place. You can hear traffic from nearby I-169 but in no way a deal breaker. Easy to get to and easy commute to nearby tourist destinations. Very much enjoyed the gift basket from the owners. A very strong 5 star stay! Thanks!

Midwestern gem

House was very clean and in the middle of the woods,very modern amenities , saw lots of deer. It was nice to be away from busy areas like downtown Saugutuck or South Haven. Check in was easy and we had a nice gift basket with some snacks which were delicious.Ended up going to Butler pantry as recommended by our host and bringing some home. There was a small booklet with lots of very useful information. We triedseveral of restaurants listed.House was advertised as pet friendly which it definitelywas. We live closer to Lake Ozarks but it has gotten toocommercial over the years and this area definitely a nice change of pace. Beaches were beautiful and not crowded. WIll be back .Our VRBO host was extremely helpful.
