About this property
A Step Away: The Rendezvous–All New, Walk to Town
Our neighborhood abuts the Peterson Nature Preserve and our home can be rented with (if available) one/both of our adjacent two bedroom homes (a fence with a gate separates the homes) if more space is desired. Downtown Saugatuck is a short walk away and Douglas and Oval Beach are easy drives. Enjoy all of the amenities provided indoors and outdoors. All "A Step Away" guests receive a discount when shopping our local store during their stay. Lastly, we're dog friendly (w/approval & fee).
Our “A Step Away” home—your ideal “Rendezvous” getaway—has so much to offer: location, amenities, and hospitality. This single-story home features a fully renovated interior, a fenced yard with landscaping, and easy on-site parking for a couple of vehicles.
Inside, you’ll find comfortable accommodations for two, thoughtfully styled with décor that reflects the charm of Saugatuck, Douglas, and the local beach and arts scenes. The home is perfect for a variety of travelers—from solo adventurers to couples. Whether you’re traveling alone, with a partner, or renting both this home and one of the adjacent two-bedroom homes next door, you’ll enjoy a space designed for carefree living.
The home includes one king bedroom, and the brand-new kitchen with a dining island flows into a vaulted-ceiling living room. Large windows and a glass door offer views of the patios and gardens. The living room opens directly onto a pergola-covered patio, complete with seating and a propane grill—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The bathroom is also new and includes a shower (no bathtub).
We believe “A Step Away” is the perfect place to enjoy your Saugatuck escape—whether you choose just this home or pair it with one of our neighboring two-bedroom properties.
As a guest of “A Step Away,” you’re invited to stop by our home décor, clothing, and jewelry store—Kindel & Company—located at 241 Culver St. in downtown Saugatuck. We’re happy to provide personalized recommendations for local attractions, dining, and shopping (we call it our “lite” concierge service). Plus, all guests receive an exclusive in-store discount!
Need more space while still staying close? Our adjacent two-bedroom homes may be available. The homes are separated by fencing.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Richard Williams
We’re a Michigan native and a New Englander/New Yorker who’ve been hosting short-term rentals in Saugatuck & Douglas since 2016. This year we’re trying VRBO. We’re SuperHosts on the other site so all of our reviews are there.
Why they chose this property
West Michigan and Saugatuck has beaches and art and feels like the East Coast without the salt and sharks.
What makes this property unique
We believe in hospitality. Good, comfortable hospitality. We run a home décor/men’s clothing/timepiece shop in downtown Saugatuck and our guests receive a discount when they shop our store. Plus, we’re there to be your mini-concierge guys.
