Renovated Historic Home! 2 blocks to downtown!

Join friends and family at Hoffman Hideaway on "The Hill" in the heart of Saugatuck. The original part of the home dates to the mid 1800s. This home has undergone a recent renovation/restoration. This home boasts over 2000 square feet. There are three bedrooms total. Two bedrooms on the main level with queen beds, and sleeping quarters upstairs with 4 twin beds, there are three full baths, hardwood floors and tile throughout. The completely renovated kitchen, part of the original home, is equipped with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Each bathroom was renovated, and the antique claw foot tub was kept and retro-fitted with a shower. You can relax inside in the closed-in year-round living porch with fireplace or outside on the back deck, enjoying the peaceful surrondings. This home is clean and tastefully decorated throughout. (SEE RATES AND VIEW OUR CALENDAR FOR AVAILABLITY BELOW.)


Hoffman Hideaway is in a location of envy, just a two minute walk to the center of town! You’re within walking distance to all restaurants, shops, parks, and the harbor. If you are looking to keep active, walk to the historic Chain Ferry, cross the Kalamazoo River and walk to Oval Beach. Oval Beach is noted as one of the top ten beaches in the United States. If you are looking to relax and see the sights take a ride on the Star of Saugatuck, the Harbor Duck. All offer a wonderful experience. (SEE RATES AND VIEW OUR CALENDAR FOR AVAILABLITY BELOW.)


Saugatuck is an American art destination and has become known as “The Art Coast of Michigan!” There are galleries galore to explore. Don’t miss the annual Venetian Festival. The Saugatuck Center for the Arts offers performances that are among the best in the region. (SEE RATES AND VIEW OUR CALENDAR FOR AVAILABLITY BELOW.)

Hideaway

Hi Liz! On behalf of our whole group, I would like to thank you for a fabulous stay in Saugatuck. Your VRBO home is lovely! Everyone remarked how great it was that we were so close to town, shopping and restaurants. All your beds and mattresses were so comfortable! We especially enjoyed being out on the patio in your pretty yard. We hope to visit your place again next year. Joan

2nd Stay as Great as the First!

This was a 2nd stay for a couples getaway - plenty of room for the 6 of us, and the place was as beautiful and clean as the last time we stayed in 2019! You know it's a clean place when it smells clean as soon as you open the door. Very close to town, easy walk and no parking problems in a busy summer season in Saugatuck. Great communication for questions, just can't say enough nice things about this rental. Thanks for a great weekend with friends!!

Just A Short Walk Away

The house is situated on a street that takes you right to the middle of what’s happening. Well maintained house, fully stocked with everything you need. A flatscreen tv would be so nice in one of the main floor bedrooms. Will be returning.

Beautiful, impeccably clean home in great location!

We have stayed at many wonderful homes in Saugatuck, but none were cleaner than this home. The whole home has been beautifully renovated with large bedrooms and updated bathrooms. There is a great backyard and patio that we really enjoyed. The house is on a bit of a hill, so keep that in mind if anyone in your group has difficulties with inclines or stairs. But we loved the location! Close enough to walk to everything in town, far enough to enjoy quiet summer nights on the patio. One minor problem when we arrived was quickly responded to by host, so very happy with response. Would love (and hope) to stay here again!
