Quiet Getaway Steps From Downtown

Frank's Apartment is a cozy little getaway for 2-4 people conveniently situated "On the Hill" in Saugatuck. It is just steps from shopping, beaches, boat rides, fudge and ice cream shops, bars, nightlife and dancing, live theater, pickleball and tennis, art galleries, restaurants, fishing, kayaking, museums, nature hikes, antique shops and more.

Frank's Apartment has everything you need for your weekend or week getaway. It has one queen bedroom with a walk in closet. Also it has a good size living room with a fold out queen sofa bed. It has a full and spacious kitchen. And a full bathroom with step in shower. It also includes a full size washer and dryer. All linens are provided and you'd be hard pressed to find a kitchen implement that isn't there. There is also a little outdoor table and two chairs.

The apartment is conveniently all on one level. It does not have a ramp, but is handicap friendly with large doorways and a step in shower with grab bars.

Frank's Apartment is a "Mother In Law" apartment attached to our other listing, Emma's House (Property # 323911). Please see the other listing and contact me if you are interested in renting Emma's House as well. Also please note that Frank's Apartment though connected to Emma's House, has its own two entrances and exits, parking area, heat and air conditioning and locked connecting door (which can be unlocked if both sides are rented together).

We are following the guidelines of the CDC and WHO in our health and safety practices ...

-Contactless check in and check out. We unlock the unit for you earlier in the day and leave a key for you to use. Then you leave the key and the place unlocked, and if possible give us a call when you check out.

-If possible we wait several hours or a day to go over and clean after a group has left to let things settle.

-Then when we come to clean, we open all the windows and turn the fans on to air out the place.

-We wash the sheets and towels with hot water.

-Then we clean everything like usual.

-At the end we go around with the WHO recommended type of disinfecting bleach (not laundry bleach) mixed with the recommenced ratio of water and disinfect: counters, faucets and taps and shower controls, handles of appliances and doors and cabinets, light switches, AC control, lamps, remotes, soap dispensers, TV and DVD player and Roku box, info book, key, and where people frequently touch the windows and blinds.

This property is great inside and outside. We were here to celebrate our wedding anniversary and it has plenty of space, everything we needed, and it's in the perfect location to walk the town and view the lake. The neighborhood is quiet and we enjoyed having coffee on the porch. We will be back next year.

Delightful Apartment

This place checked all the boxes. Cozy, clean, and lovely home with everything you need. The neighborhood on the hill was quiet and personable. We loved that it took just minutes to walk into town. This location is well placed between South Haven and Holland for day trips.

Great Getaway Cottage

The apartment/cottage was perfect for us! Beautifully decorated and well appointed with anything needed. Easy walk to shops, restaurants, and Chain Ferry. We were lucky enough to catch music in the park which made for an enjoyable evening

Wonderful Spacious Apartment

The apartment was larger than we thought it would be. When we entered, we were pleasantly surprised by the spaciousness of the place. The kitchen area was very large and the living area and bedroom were the perfect size for what we needed. We were able to walk to downtown Saugatuck in 5 minutes. The place was very clean and we really enjoyed our stay here!

It was a nice place and close to lots of stuff in Saugatuck. The bathroom wasn't as clean as it should have been.

Saugatuck stay

This property is good for a anyone looking to stay a few nights near a beach but not right in the middle of the action. This was about 5 blocks from the few restaurants and shops (you do have to walk up & down a hill). Good for 2 people. It is connected to a house, so you might hear them occasionally during your stay, but we weren't there most of the time so it wasn't too bad. Hot shower, full kitchen, & laundry.

A brief stop

The place was perfect for our needs. The on line listing failed to inform there was no cable in the unit. A TV with DVD and netflix, but no access to a news channel. The coffee pot was in need of replacement. It would make one pot, but didn't keep the completed coffee warm, nor would it make a second pot. I called about it, but received no response from the property manager. Overall a great stay! Thank you.

We had an enjoyable visit. The apartment is so cute but we like to sit outside and the table and chairs on the porch had to be moved in front of the door every time. We finally sat on the rockers at the adjoining house when the guests were away. The neighborhood was lovely and we enjoyed seeing black squirrels!

This little one bedroom apartment was absolutely perfect for our trip to Saugatuck. I was there for my work as an artist painting for a wedding, and it was lovely! Great space to get ready for the wedding, a comfortable room to come back to to relax after a long day, and riiight in the downtown area so I could walk to grab coffee in the morning, and we could go out for a celebratory drink at the end of the night too! I honestly wish we could have stayed a bit longer to enjoy the comfortable space! We would definitely stay here again:)

About the host

Hosted by Nancy Burgin

Host profile image
I am an artist and mom of 1 baby and 3 fur babies, living with my husband, Jerod, in Fennville, MI. We coordinate the rentals for the owner, Nancy Burgin, a family friend for my whole life who lives in Ohio. I grew up in Saugatuck and my husband has lived in the area for 15 years, so feel free to ask us about the restaurants, activities and surrounding towns.

Why they chose this property

We pride ourselves on our cleanliness and we like to think we provide pretty much anything you could need in the kitchen. AC works really well. Everything is all on one floor, good for older guests.

What makes this property unique

Very close to the multitude of downtown delights, but far enough away to be a nice refuge from the noise and congestion of a crowded day or loud night downtown.
