The house was beautiful and in a great location! Just minutes from everything you want or need. The outdoor area was even better than the listing pictures. The marsh area on the river was gorgeous and we thoroughly enjoyed watching & listening to the different birds. It was an awesome trip!
The house was lovely, with a very peaceful, scenic location. Plenty of space and beautifully decorated. The host had great communication and hospitality. He answered any questions promptly and reached out to make sure we had everything we needed. Made us feel very welcome. The hot tub was a real bonus, close to the home with towels waiting for us. House is nicely updated, would love to stay again. Just 5 minutes from downtown Douglas with cute shops and eateries, and only 10 minutes from Saugatuck.
We had a wonderful stay at Riverdance! Beautiful setting. So peaceful and so fun to watch the wildlife. Very comfortable seating and sleeping arrangements. Already booked again! Todd was very accommodating and a great host.
We have stayed here several times and it is definitely the best place to stay in the area. House is always clean and fully stocked and Todd is a very kind and hospitable host. The view and wildlife cannot be beat!
We had a wonderful stay! The home was beautifully decorated, spacious, and lots of thoughtful touches throughout. The views were incredible, and we saw lots of really cool birds. Our kids loved the hot tub, too. Fantastic communication from the host and centrally located!
Another Amazing Stay at Todd’s House in Saugatuck!This was our fifth year staying at Todd’s house, and once again, it did not disappoint. The home was spotless upon arrival, which always sets the tone for a relaxing vacation. The setting is absolutely gorgeous—peaceful, scenic, and perfect for unwinding with the family.The pool continues to be a highlight for all of us. Whether it’s morning swims or afternoon lounging, it adds so much fun to our stay. It’s become a tradition we all look forward to every year.Todd’s home truly feels like a second home to us now. We’re so grateful for the care and consistency he puts into making it a welcoming retreat. Already counting down the days until next year!
We spent unforgettable days at Riverdance. Everything was just perfect. Todd is a very kind host and the communication between us was always kind and useful. The house is furnished with extreme good taste and with everything you could possibly need. The view of the river from the garden is amazing! We will definitely come back!
This house was the perfect place to unwind and get away from it all! It was very clean and comfortable. The view is so great! It was nice to watch the birds in the morning. My family and I very much enjoyed our stay and we will definitely be definitely be coming back!!!!
Fantastic house, pool, hot tub, and setting. We had an amazing time and loved this house! Everything was super clean and beautiful. The river and march area were so pretty and fun to watch all the birds, cranes, and swans.
We will be back!
Thanks!
Riverdance is a very comfortable home at the end of the street in a nice neighborhood just minutes from Douglas and Saugatuck. It is nicely situated on the Kalamazoo River with lots of bird life and great views. The home is well furnished. We enjoyed our stay here.

Thanks Anne, your group was a pleasure to work with sorry about the storms and some extra excitement there appreciate all your help
We have been to several homes as rental’s and this one is one of the best!!!! Peaceful surroundings, exceptional amenities. All the beds are super comfy! On Lake Kalamazoo in a secluded area but the short drive to Saugatuk and Douglas makes the location perfect. We will be back!
We had a nice relaxing fall weekend at Riverdance with our teenage daughters. The property was exactly as described - very neat and clean. The girls enjoyed the hot tub and we enjoyed the views. We would love to come back in the summer when the weather is warmer and we can enjoy the pool as well. Thanks for a great stay!

Thank you Angela your group was a pleasure to work with and glad you enjoyed the River! Kind regards -Todd
Our stay at Riverdance was wonderful! The home was very clean (I’m pretty picky about that), and had all of the necessary essentials. We really enjoyed the heated pool, the wildlife viewing and the serenity of the backyard. There is so much to do very close by for those days that we were able to tear ourselves away from the home! Todd is a great host, quick to reply and to address any issue. Already booked again for next year and looking forward to it!
My husband and I loved the house. The layout is great and it’s very comfortable. The view of the river is beautiful and relaxing, even though the weather wasn’t the best. We lost power one night but sat and talked rather than watching TV so not a bad thing. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful place!
My wife and our 3 kids (+ her parents) just had an great week at Riverdance. It is clean, wonderfully decorated, and has fantastic views. The brand new pool was perfect for us. It is even better than the photos. We really could not have asked for a better experience.

Home and location were absolutely wonderful. Riverdance overlooks the Kalamazoo River which is home to beautiful wildlife. We enjoyed hours of fun and relaxation in the heated pool, hottub, deck, screened porch, and lounging and cooking indoors while enjoying the view outdoors. We rented kayaks for the weekend and were able to set in and out as we chose. What an awesome long weekend!
I can only repeat what other reviewers have said, Riverdance is a outstanding retreat! Clean, comfortable, well decorated, relaxing home that was a pleasure to be at! I made the reservation for our annual girlfriends vacation, and all loved it, especially the warm, heated pool, hot tub and comfortable seating on the screened porch, which were the places we spent the most time. The views along the river and marshes are beautiful, and as a bird enthusiast I loved watching the blue herons, sandhill cranes, egrets, swans, just to name a few highlights. It is such a peaceful, quiet location, in a lovely neighborhood, but still only 5 minutes to Douglas and 10 minutes to Saugatuck. If you are making your first trip to this area, I hope will find this area as magical as I do, so many wonderful restaurants, lots of unique shops, and fantastic art galleries, along with the water views and opportunities for outdoor adventures, make this area one of my favorite places! The owner Todd is also incredibly nice and so responsive to any questions or concerns. I would return in a heartbeat!
