We had a siblings and spouses gathering at the house and everyone enjoyed our 4 days at the house. Andrea was very attentive, the views were amazing and location was great. Memories were made
Beautiful, great location, comfortable, roomy, well stocked, prompt service when needed. Large hot tub and heated pool. Included 4 hour yacht ride was relaxing and enjoyable. Loved watching boats come from Lake Michigan and go into adjacent Saugatuck inlet. Awesome sunsets right from the deck! Great memories for our family of 13! Convenient to restaurants and local shopping in cute town of Saugatuck.
This is an amazing property. Lakefront well equipped multiple kitchens. Wonderfully heated hot tub. All in all this was a great place to stay. Highly recommend.
Beautiful home! Views for days! Amazing value for the price. Can have a huge group. Room and fun for everyone. Can’t say enough good things! Wonderful and communicative host!

Rachel. Thank you so much did your great review. I’m always looking for ways to improve. And if there’s anything you can think of, please let me know. And I hope you will return! Andrea Crossman
Amazing Michigan Vacation!We normally vacation in Florida each year, but this year we decided to head north and stay at this beautiful home—and we're so glad we did.The scenery is truly unforgettable. Between the sandy beaches, the shoreline, and the incredible dunes, it's one of those places that simply has to be experienced in person. Pictures don't do it justice.The home itself is thoughtfully designed to make you feel like you're on a luxury cruise ship, and it absolutely delivers on that feeling. While the neighboring homes are also beautiful, this property has one of the closest and most unobstructed views of the water.If you enjoy relaxing on the porch and watching the day unfold, you won't find a much better spot. The inlet is directly beside the house, so you get an amazing view of every boat entering and leaving Lake Michigan. We found ourselves spending hours simply taking in the scenery.This was a truly memorable vacation, and we would love the opportunity to stay here again. We highly recommend this home to anyone looking for an exceptional getaway on Lake Michiga

Wes, thank you for staying with us. You were a pleasure to host with your family. And I certainly hope you will visit again. It’s just as beautiful in seasons other than summer. And you are able to rent for less than a week and for as much as 1/2 to 1/3 the price depending on season. Great hiking and cross country skiing and sunsets with fireplaces and billiards, ping pong, foosball and more games.
Great home for our extended family gathering. Large rooms for gaming, dining and relaxing. Great views of Lake Michigan from every room and easy access to the beach for a bonfire, swim or walk.
The host Andrea was super easy to work with, very accommodating and hospitable!! I had my elopement here in January, and stayed the weekend afterwards for a mini honeymoon! it was cozy and warm despite the mini blizzard. We even used the hot tub and it was relaxing even in negative degrees. Will definitely be looking forward to booking again in the future during the summer! Andrea was a breeze and made our stay very easy and fun.

Glad you had a great time despite the weather. And enjoyed your elopement. Despite the blizzard.
We enjoyed an exceptional Christmas stay with our family, including adult children and young grandchildren. The host was responsive and welcoming, the home was very clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The breathtaking winter views of Lake Michigan created a peaceful and memorable backdrop for our time together.

Thank you, Karen, for your visit and especially taking the time for a great review and also reaching out separately to thank me.
The view is unique, encompassing an unobstructed 180 degrees of Lake Michigan and vast conservation land. The home’s design is meant to resemble a ship and you feel you’re onboard a luxury vessel. Perfect for family reunions, with room for the grandkids as well as lots of sibs. Plenty of activities to choose from.

Thank you for staying with us. And thank you for taking the time for a review. We sincerely hope you will find another special occasion to return. Andrea Crossman
Andrea's property is gorgeous, the pictures don't do it justice. Ed the handyman gave us a tour when we got there, which was super appreciated. One of the best places I've stayed!
Beautiful one of a kind property. The location was amazingly special. Once we got there we never left the property. The beautiful little town of Saugatuck was very close by but the house and property were so amazing we just couldn’t leave. Everything we needed was right there. The house was extremely clean and comfortable. The view was like no other. We could’ve sat on the beach all day long and watched the waves and the boats come and go. We will definitely be back for an even longer stay next time!
We had an amazing stay and enjoyed walks on the sandy beach and amazing sunsets. The location is unique and private with unbeatable views of Lake Michigan and the channel. Lots of gathering areas and space indoors as well as a large lakeside deck that is perfect for sunset watching or just listening to the waves. A beautiful retreat and would highly recommend!

I’m so glad you could visit with us at the Saugatuck Beach House.
Andrea, the host, was very quick in answering any questions. Being right on the beach was excellent. We were a party of 8 adults and 6 children under 10. As part of a birthday celebration, we had Lydia of Porch Light Gathering cater the dinner for the adults and everything was excellent. We had two young babysitters to watch the kids and they were great.

Joe. Thank you so much for the nice review. We hope you can return soon.
The home is absolutely amazing. The photos really don’t do justice to the stunning beauty of the home and location. Everything we needed for our stay was provided and we had no issues. We had a family vacation for a lifetime and enjoyed every second. In addition, we highly recommend the yacht cruise. The boat and Captain Chuck are both amazing.
I have seen this property from the other side of channel and online for year. I have always wanted to stay there. While the say was a short one, it met and exceeded my expectations.
Just a stunning house. There must be 150 windows and every single one has a breath taking view.

Why they chose this property
The most amazing views and beach in a great location between Holland and Saugatuck-Douglas on the beach and channel. Wide sandy beach. Best Lake Michigan home in the state. 360 degree decking on the main home with a guest house. 2 kitchens, 2 laundries, hot tub on the deck, huge beach, 5 acres, boat watching, nearly 1000 acre state park just a short walk/ski down the beach. Multi-million home. Optional private chef (if available) and option 4 hour private sunset or day cruise aboard the classic one-of-a-kind fantail motor yacht, Yemaya, docked very near the home at the Safe Harbor Tower Marina. (in season and included for full week bookings in boating season). 15 minutes or less to Holland, Saugatuck, Douglas, Fennville with farmer's markets, the arts, great shopping and entertainment, live outdoor concerts in summer and the best beach. Architecturally designed multi-million home with great entertaining spaces. Jacuzzi tub and gas log fireplace in the master suite. Streaming TV's in most every room. Billiards and ping pong tables. Wet bar upstairs. Ice maker, warming drawer, double Gaggenau ovens, 2 large refrigerator freezers in main home and a full kitchen in the guest house are all very well stocked for cooking and meals. Great teak outdoor furniture and some Adirondacks. Beach towels and all indoor linens provided. Multi million dollar home with multi million dollar views. 2-story living room has new gas log fireplace. Lots of room to gather together or spread out for a little alone time on the deck, in the house or on the beach. Check out Serenity for a sailing schooner or the Star of Saugatuck paddle boat. Modales or Fenn Valley Wineries, Saugatuck Center of the Arts, Hope College Summer Repertory Theater, or Holland Civic Theater, Meijer Gardens, Crane's Orchards, the Saugatuck Dunes State Park next door to the gated North Shore Community where this home sits are all "to do's" on your vacation. As amazing all year round as in the summer.
What makes this property unique
Pier for fishing & boat watching. Some of the best low bluff, walkable beach in a great location. Gated community of North Shore of Saugatuck with marinas & rentals of boats and fishing nearby. Rent a retro electric boat or a "doughnut" boat on the Kalamazoo River, climb to the top of Mt Baldy in Saugatuck or Mt Pisgah near the Holland State Park for some of the best views. Visit Oxbox Arts Camp or the John Ball Park Zoo or Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids, summer performances at Hope College's Summer Repertory Theater or at the Saugatuck Center for the Arts. Many of the local farmer's markets are Wednesdays & Saturdays (Holland & South Haven) & Saugatuck has it's own. Demond's Groceries in Douglas is the closest but Family Fare on S Washington and Meijers on E 16th St in Holland or Meijers in South Haven have more selection and better produce.
Spectacular all year round with the nearly 1000 acre Saugatuck Dunes State Park just a short walk to our north past about 7 other beachfront homes and there's hundreds of acres on the south side of the pier and channel that is a preserve so this 7 acre property feels like it's much larger.

Newer hot tub. Backup power generators. 3 full size refrigerator freezers. 3 ovens total, 2 laundries.
