This property was exactly what we needed for our sleepy beach weekend! (It's even bigger than it looks in the pictures, we were pleasantly surprised.) The fenced-in yard was perfect for our pup to get her zoomies out, and we enjoyed sitting on the screened-in back porch in the evenings without worrying about getting attacked by bugs. A short walk to downtown, our group was able to come and go very easily. Tracey and Tim were excellent communicators and were very accommodating to any questions that we had. Will book here again next time we're back in Saugatuck!
This is our second time staying at this property. Both times we have stayed have been excellent. The house is nice and clean - close to town - and the host is great with communication and makes us feel welcome as guests.
This was our annual spring break trip and our first time staying here. The place was exactly as described, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Our dogs loved the backyard and the kitchen was equipped with everything needed to cook. The coffee pot is not a keurig so we purchased ground coffee at the store. Will definitely stay here again! The whole experience was easy from start to finish.
Very clean, has everything you need, even extra paper towel, toilet paper, zip bags! This place was well equipped, nice yard for the little dogs and just a short walk to down town Saugatuck. Will stay again!
What a lovely, quiet location within walking distance (aprox 10 minutes at kiddo speed) to downtown Saugatuck! The place is lovely and was larger than expected with a modern kitchen. Loved sitting on the screened in porch in the evenings!
This was our 3rd stay at Starry nights cottage, and the cleaniness and supplies were superb as usual. Love the updated shower this trip, plus the addition of the king bed. The location and screened porch are favorite features for us also.
This cottage is even bigger and nicer than it looks in the pictures. We really enjoyed the spacious, fully equipped kitchen and the lovely screened-in back porch. The street is quiet and it's an easy walk to town.
Great location- Quiet street and only a 10 minute walk via sidewalks to town/ shopping district.
Very spacious house and fenced in yard- Our golden retriever couldn’t have been happier!
Perfect and thoughtful hosts- the house has everything you will need including towels by the door for wet dog feet in the event of rain!
We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Saugatuck!
Beautiful property, close enough to walk to downtown. We really enjoyed the screened porch. The front door lock was a bit temperamental and tricky to figure out but we got it eventually.
My friends and I had a wonderful time using the house for a wedding weekend. Clean, spacious, cute, and very close to downtown. Checkin and checkout processes were seamless with great communication from the host. Would love to come again and bring my fur baby next time as it is dog friendly :) thanks for a beautiful weekend!!
Tracey and Tim, Starry Night could not have been more perfect for our fall getaway with our dog. Each night, we walked to Saugatuck for dinner, which was closer than we expected, and our dog enjoyed the fenced-in yard in a wonderfully quiet neighborhood. My husband and I joked that whoever cleans Starry Night needs to come and clean ours because it was impeccable.
We loved our stay at Starry Night Cottage!
It was great to be able to walk to downtown Saugatuck to see the shops, visit coffee shops and try out the many restaurants!
The hosts provided everything you would need!
Including a notebook with restaurant menus & phone numbers!
The place actually looks bigger than the pictures show. Perfect size for us,
our 2 children, their spouses and 2 grandchildren.
It was so much fun to hang out on the screened in porch & see all the wildlife around!
Thanks Tracy & Tim for sharing your place with us!
My husband and I have been visiting S.W. Michigan every year on our anniversary week for the past 8 years. This rental ranks up there with the very best. Enjoyed the wine on our anniversary. The weather even cooperated.
The ONLY thing I can complain about were the couches. I think it might have been our ages and old backs, but the couches were not comfortable. The beds made up for it though! We wouldn't hesitate to stay again. Thank you so much for allowing our pets. They really enjoyed themselves too!
