This property was on the higher end for what we have paid for similar rentals in the past, and it did not have any of the perks of other properties. It was not cleaned thoroughly and there was nothing that made it special. We love the Saugatuck area and will visit again but we will not choose this property again.

Great property and location

We met friends here for a long weekend stay and loved the location of this property. Douglas was quieter than Saugatuck and we could walk to a great deli, coffee shops, grocery, restaurants, and Douglas Beach. We enjoyed a night in with the grill and fire pit, too. The house was very clean and comfortable for our party of 4. I would stay here again!

Great stay!

We had a wonderful time, such a convenient location, close to farmhouse, the root beer barrel, and the beach. We spent the weekend all over Saugatuck and Douglas and loved coming back to the fenced yard and screened porch at night. A really great house. Thanks for being such great hosts!
