About this property
THE ZOO-Midcentury Modern Meets Rustic, Dog Friendly Farmhouse - 2 MI FROM TOWN
Your very own Saugatuck secret getaway. Trust me, you'll tell no one of your new discovery, this private, pleasure place. Of course, friends will want to know where you found a renovated, 12-acre farmhouse just under 2 miles from town and a five-minute drive to the beach. BUT damned if you're saying a word. After all they don't need to know THE ZOO offers the best of both worlds... the private, RUSTIC, country setting with star-filled nights or the crowds awaiting you in town by foot, bike or car. Morning coffee on the front lawn and drinks around back at the fire pit. Long country walks? Shopping in town? Or days and sunsets at the beach? You decide.
Nothing fancy, just fun. Nothing beats your Daze at The Zoo.

About the host
Hosted by B. C. W.
I was 16 when my grandfather willed me this old farmhouse. As a kid, I hated it! What kid would want to leave her suburb friends to spend time with an old man in the country to pick berries, catch gophers, and make homemade biscuits? No TV! Just stacks of newspapers, Reader's Digest and a transistor radio! "Going into town" was the only highlight. Although I hated it every moment, I look back and realize it was the best time of my life. Being a mother of 3, I wanted our boys to experience country life and we have spent many a day in town, at the beach and around the fire in back. These indeed are the good old days!
Why they chose this property
Why stay in town? Nothing beats the seclusion and privacy you'll find at The Zoo. Greenery is the best scenery. You can walk in the woods, sing around the fire until the cows come home. In town, you'll be looking a someone else's backyard fence, smelling others barbecue and hearing others' dogs bark. Really? Really.
What makes this property unique
Secluded yet close to the action. Nights around the firepit gazing at the stars is the best way to end your day. You won't get any of this in town.
