Best Place in Town! Book Your 2024 Vacations Now. Spring & Summer Filling Fast!

Nicest location in town! Beautiful historic Italianate home built in 1868. The Pond Winslow homestead has been awarded the prestigious Heritage Preservation award for Honor and Respect by the Saugatuck Douglas Historical Society. Located on the hill over looking the town square. The home has been beautifully updated, including kitchen, newly remodeled bathrooms and restored old growth hardwood flooring through out. First floor includes, dine in kitchen with laundry, living room, dining room, half bath, bed room (queen bed) with en-suite full bath, and glassed/screened in porch. Second floor has master bedroom (queen bed) with private sun porch, 3rd bedroom handcrafted bunk-bed (full on bottom, single on top) and full bath. Kitchen is fully out fitted Keurig pod or drip coffee (get some fresh roasted beans from Uncommon Grounds, just two blocks) - just bring your favorite food and beverages. Bedrooms and baths are complete with linens. Beautiful flag stone patio with large built in fire pit, lots of grilling accessories. 'Up North' feel in town! In laws want to come too? Ask about the additional cottage with room for two!


Quiet, peaceful location surrounded by mature trees and tranquil gardens, yet just a few steps from the thriving downtown with all of its associated activities: Shops, Antique Stores, Art Galleries, Restaurants, Bars and Coffee shops. Utilize the chain ferry and walk or ride your bike to the beautiful Oval Beach. Easy drive to the many local golf courses, Fenn-Valley Vineyards, Crane's Apple Orchard, Dune Schooners and other area attractions.

Graduation weekend
Awesome place for all our needs, esp having parents who needed a handicap accessible room. The outdoor patio and fire pit were great! Very fun place to grill for a group. Also very close to downtown!

Wonderful, clean, great location and a joy to stay at this vrbo. It had everything we needed and was very clean. Location was excellent because we were a few blocks from downtown. We would definitely return, and we had an amazing time!!

We were in town for our son's wedding. This house was absolutely perfect for our stay, coming back to relax after our events. I would highly recommend this as a getaway. Very clean, exactly as described! Such a wonderful, older, unique house!

Home away from home.
This was our 2nd stay in this beautiful historic home. We love it so much we’re thinking on returning next year. The weather was not good for this stay. However, it didn’t matter. Got us some groceries and we were good. Everything we could of possibly needed was here. Had a wonderful time.

Ladies getaway
This is our second time staying at the property. We love it's proximity to the downtown area and the house itself is great. Lot's of space to hang out, clean, and well appointed. Owner is super easy to work with; check in and check out are a breeze. We had a lovely girls weekend in Saugatuck.

Family weekend getaway
We loved the house! It was perfect for us, our kids and the 4-month-old grandbaby. Super close & enjoyable walk to downtown. The town in February has enough options for food, drinks and shopping, but I will say lots of places are closed in the winter/off-season. We had a wonderful time relaxing at the house.
