Emma's House is a charming house. 3 friends and I spent a few nights there. It was clean, convenient to downtown Saugatuck, comfortable furniture, easy parking, and good communication with the hosts. I appreciate the little touches: a welcome note, plenty of dishwashing detergent, hand soap, and plenty of kitchen and bath towels. The house is for sale, which may mean new owners in the future.

Great value and checking in via VRBO was incredibly easy. There was a minor mix-up with the space we rented, but Aaron was quick to reply and offered an amicable solution right away. The location was perfect—just a quick stroll to downtown—and the house had all the necessities we needed for our girls' retreat. Highly recommend!

Thanks Ekaterina! The location is great for anything you want to do in town, but far enough away too to get away from the bustle and noise.

We loved Emma's house - it was the perfect representation of cottage life and was a gracious space to host a group of people on vacation. Even better, the neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors are quiet too. Saugatuck can get a bit rowdy in the summer but the location of the house always felt like a get-a-way, but also close enough to walk everywhere. Nothing but compliments.

We just loved how pretty this house is! It is vintage and also comfortable, with lovely kitchen and eating space. We came for the tulip festival in Holland, which is just a quick drive from Saugatuck. Emma's house is in a peaceful neighborhood one block from the quaint downtown, perfect for walking to shops and dinner. (Try Everyday People Cafe across the bridge in Douglas- awesome!.)
