Cozy Cottage

Very nice, cozy, two-bedroom cottage by Goshorn Lake near Saugatuck, MI. Not as close to the lake as we thought it might be, but just a little walk away. We enjoyed our stay thoroughly. Nice quiet beach. Town just minutes away. Gracious hosts. We appreciated having access to a washer and dryer too.

Quick Summer Getaway Perfection

We needed a quick mini-vacay and this cabin was the PERFECT spot!!! We were able to visit the sand dunes, kayak the lake, dine out in Saugatuck and even ride our bikes from the cabin all the way into Holland to check out Windmill Island Gardens. Super clean and the host was extremely kind and communicative.
