About this property
The Crescent Cottage | Kayaks | Bonfire | Lakeside
Summary:
Welcome to the Crescent Cottage, a serene natural hideaway minutes away from downtown Saugatuck and Douglas.
This cottage-style home comfortably sleeps 6 guests and has been beautifully designed with a charming, open-air layout, vaulted ceilings, and wood flooring. Enjoy the large yard where you can dine al fresco and play games on the lawn. A short trail through the woods opens to the lake where you can swim, take out the kayaks, light a bonfire, or sit back and enjoy the peaceful scenery.
The Space:
Escape to the Crescent Cottage, a hidden gem with its open single-level floor plan and tranquil surroundings. Step into the spacious backyard and soak in the beauty of nature and the lake. This is where nature and relaxation meet modern comforts.

Outdoor Space:
Spacious private yard with plenty of room to road; includes a back deck, grill, outdoor dining area among the trees with string lights, bonfire pit facing the water and kayaks for some fun-filled adventures as a group
Ideal Lakeside Location, Easy Access to Downtown and Beaches:
Embrace the privacy of being tucked away in the woods that border the lake or head into the nearby Michigan beach towns of Saugatuck/Douglas to experience dozens of local eateries, cafes, and boutiques. This is the perfect location to disconnect while still being a short drive into town and to the beaches of the Michigan lakeshore.
Parking and Access:
Crescent Cottage offers parking for up to 5 cars. There is two parking spots available in the garage and three in the driveway.
Guest Access:
You and your guests will have access to the entire private property. With our keyless entry, you can enjoy a flexible check-in any time after the designated check-in time on your arrival date and guests can conveniently gain access via the smart lock.
The Neighborhood:
Welcome to the town of Fennville - the area boasts vast stretches of sugar-sand Lake Michigan beach, rolling vineyards, and diverse, authentic food and art scenes. The rolling vineyards is filled with farm stands, orchards, cheese shops, wineries and more!
Getting Around:
This charming modern retreat is within 7 mins of Downtown Douglas and the Saugatuck Chain Ferry, which takes you across the Kalamazoo River and drops you in Downtown Saugatuck. Fares are $2/person each way.
The Interurban is a on call public transportation service that services Saugatuck/Douglas/Fennville. Simply call the number and request a pickup. $1 fares each way!
Other Things to Note:
Immerse yourself in the best of Michigan's lakeshore area at this vacation home. Our team has curated a collection of exceptional products from a few of our favorite local businesses to enhance your stay. Indulge in the luxury of Bondi Salon's hair products, elevate your culinary experiences with Fustini's olive oil and balsamic vinegar, and start your mornings right with our own custom blend of aromatic coffee from Uncommon Coffee Roasters.
Our rentals are equipped with all the basic cooking essentials you'll need for a seamless cooking experience. Including pots and pans, utensils, a wide array of spices and seasonings and more. Whip up your favorite recipes, experiment with new local flavors, and savor the joy of cooking in the comfort of your home away from home.
Outdoor furniture may be winterized from December - May.
Interaction with Guests:
Our team of hospitality members are here for you whenever you need. We will be available via text, email, and through any booking platform. Reach out anytime.
