WALK to Lake Michigan AND Saugatuck ~ Includes Bicycles!

Spotless and exceptionally charming, this home is located a very short (1 mile) walk or bike ride to Lake Michigan's Douglas Beach. 900 sq. ft. Two bedrooms. Two baths. Large private deck which is colorfully furnished, completely surrounded by pine trees and adorned with plants and flowers.

Saugatuck is the 'Art Coast', so we have decorated with original artwork in every room - pieces we have collected on travels to Australia and various countries in Africa and Asia.

During the evening, come home and relax in your 6 person hot tub (May through October) while you watch the fireflies and listen to bell practice, provided by your next door neighbors at the beautiful Douglas Community Church.

A great place to stay while exploring the Saugatuck Douglas area.

The property was in a great location close to Saugatuck and Douglas. It was a short drive to Oval Beach. The house was homey & comfortable & the back deck was a nice place to hang out.

Great!

This rental worked out great for our group. Clean and comfortable, and great location, too. The only hiccup was that Google Maps took us to a house across the street, but we figured it out eventually!

Lovely stay in Douglas/Saugatuck

Beautiful house, nicely decorated, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, well supplied kitchen, overall a very nice stay. We did have some trouble with the TVs and hot tub. Google 6772 Wiley Road for the location

Cute house in a cute town

The property and location were great! We were able to walk to Oval beach and to get coffee. Also in a great location to quickly drive to Holland. However the online description is not clear. There are 2 bedrooms and each bedroom has 1 bed. Also the address did not work in Google Maps. However, small things that did not ruin our trip!

Cozy Retreat

The property is just a short drive or bike ride to Douglas, Sagatuk and walking and biking trails. The unit was spotless with everything you need for a comfortable stay. There is a private patio and hot tub in the back which was a lovely surprise. The property host was very responsive to any questions I had. I highly recommend this vacation rental.

The house was perfect for my wife and I. Very quiet area and close to everything. We even spent time at the local outlet mall only 30 miles away. The deck and hot tub really were the highlight of our stay.

Nicer than the pictures

We loved our stay here! The beds were comfy, the deck was very nicely decorated! We reached out for an extra blanket (it is getting cold at night again) and the owner was more than gracious and brought us blankets! We would definitely stay here again!

I didn’t want to leave!

So fortunate to find this treasure of a place. Very clean, beautifully landscaped, and the interior is decorated with very interesting artwork and furniture. But the back deck…well it is just PERFECT! Private, cute furniture, wonderful hot tub. We all enjoyed our stay immensely. Might turn into a yearly trip!!

This review is for a two night stay by three women. We absolutely loved our stay here. The backyard deck and hot tub area were so inviting, we barely wanted to do anything else. However, we did find that the location provided easy-access to both Douglas and Saugatuck and we did venture out. We would stay here again!

Thanks for your hospitality!

The duplex was quite comfortable. Kitchen well stocked with dishes, pots and pans. Food in the refrigerator kept freezing despite lowering the temperature. Great location. Nice deck but hot tub had tepid water. No instructions on Many books and a wide variety on the book shelves. Great location! However, there weren't any notes on places to eat, the beaches, maps, etc. These were easy to find at local stores. When I booked the listing it stated two king-size beds in one bedroom. Since the photo did not show two beds, I emailed the host on Feb 7. Our stay began on June 16. She emailed me on June 11 to tell me that there was only one king bed and one queen bed in the duplex. Too late to get a refund and too late to book someplace with three beds. She was very kind and moved a twin bed into the master bedroom so we would have three beds. Check-in is 4 pm. I called her at 5:30 on the day of check-in to say that I had not received the door code. She was kind enough to unlock the door for our arrival but I still had to text her to ask for the code and for the internet password, which she promptly provided.Overall, this is a great place and we would stay again but the communication could be much better!
