A Find!
Exceeded our expectations! The cozy king beds were a real treat, as was the beautifully appointed kitchen with everything you could possibly need. The rainfall shower was a nice surprise too! Awesome fire pit as well! We’ll be back!
My 3 y/o and I accompanied my husband for a work trip and had a great stay at Nook on North! We truly enjoyed the setup of the house and it was super comfortable for our young family. The location is great and in a perfect safe neighborhood for walks (to the Southerner for carry out ;) ) - close enough to walk to downtown Saugatuck too!

Enjoyable Stay
We really enjoyed our stay at North on Nook. The home was cozy and nicely decorated. We especially liked the coffee bar and other amenities that were available. The beds were super comfy. We enjoyed walking around Saugatuck and also Holland, MI. It was too cold to use the porch, but would be great in warmer weather.
Nook on North was exactly as advertised. Super clean, super nice! We highly recommend!

The Nook on North exceeded our expectations. We arrived later in the evening on the first night and lights were turned on which provided for a great welcome. Everything felt brand new, from the bath towels to everything in the kitchen. We enjoyed the coffee/tea bar in the kitchen each morning before our short walk into downtown Saugatuck. We will definitely be back and will stay again at the Nook on North.
