Beautiful home just steps from shops, restaurants, and more!

Our family had a wonderful time at the Butler Manor enjoying the comfort of the home, walks down Butler St to the shops, playground, chain ferry, etc. Hosts were very responsive and the check-in/check-out process was very easy. Hope to return next year!

We had a wonderful stay in this recently renovated property. We found it as described in the listing or better. Excellent location within an easy 10 minute walk to shops and restaurants. It was quiet, with lots of creature comforts. The kitchen was well-stocked, the WiFi was excellent, and for those that needed to work a bit, the smaller bedroom had a nice desk with large monitors. The front porch was perfect for gathering with coffee in the morning and drinks in the late afternoon. Communication with the hosts was prompt and thorough. I will stay here again.

I’m a little nervous to rate this house for fear it won’t be available to rent in the future! Clearly the nicest, cleanest house I’ve ever rented on VRBO. They really made us feel at home and like it had never been rented before. Location was perfect, communication was quick and concise and finishes were all top of the line. Thank you for such a fabulous stay

The location is great, we did not go out back but beautifil set up. My Mom (88) and my sister so much enjoyed the house and front porch. We drank wine one the porch and then played cards and ate homemade appetizers. I could not check out upstairs because I have on an aircast on left foot, but they said it was lovely

Wow! Perfect everything!

2 adults, 2 seniors, a 17 and 6 year old stayed for 3 nights over the 4th of July weekend. The house was PERFECT in terms of location (just a few blocks from downtown and the water), cleanliness, functionality, spaciousness, and overall charm. Great beds, shower pressure, AC, and fire pit! The office even had a pull out trundle bed for my 6 year old. Just a wonderful experience. Thank you!

The (New) Gem of Saugatuck

What an amazing property! We take a trip to Saugatuck every summer and had the honor of staying here this time around and... it set a new standard. It's one of the few listings where the place is even BETTER than the photos, all the small touches and finishes are impeccable. The beds are comfortable. The space is sprawling. The yard is perfect. The location is superb, just a couple minute walk into town. We wanted for nothing and left wanting more time here. Grateful and thankful for the stay and, bonus, a great spot for those traveling with dogs!

Michigan Sisters

My sisters and I get together in a different location each year for our Sisters Weekend. Though this amazing home has been renting for a year, we all felt as if we were the first people to touch it! The owners have clearly attended to every detail from the neutral and calming color scheme carried throughout the home to the new construction finishes in this sweet vintage home. Tranquil, private gathering spaces both inside and out were perfect for us. There was ample room for five of us to enjoy long chats over morning coffee on the amazing front porch , cocktails at the fire pit, Netflix-watching on the ultra comfy extra long sofa, and the most restful sleep imaginable! Charging stations abound at every bedside. The entire home was top-notch and extremely clean, even met our very picky standards! . Everything we wanted to do in Saugatuck was within a short walk or a very brief ride in the car. This home checked all our boxes for rest, recreation and pampering ourselves. Would absolutely stay here again on a future visit.
