We couldn't have been more pleased with our choice to stay at this property...it was super clean, decorated to a tee and in a good location. The beds were both king sized (which you don't see often) and very comfy. Lynn, the host provided an abundance of activities and restaurants to visit and communication with us was excellent! I would recommend this property to anyone staying in the area and we hope to return again one day!!

Wonderful Saugatuck getaway
Fresh, updated townhome close to downtown Saugatuck. The townhome was exceptionally clean, bright, and quiet. The owner was so welcoming and gave us a very complete up-to-date list of events in the area along with recommendations for restaurants and activities. We enjoyed the walk into town thru the prairie preserve, did lots of shopping, and had excellent meals. The root beer floats at the Root Beer Barrel topped off dinner on our last night. Would definitely book again at this location!

Lynn was a delightful host from the start. She is a fantastic communicator and incredibly thoughtful. We were welcomed with a binder full of local recommendations, a bottle of wine, 2 rounds of mini golf, and a kind note. Her place is immaculate and stocked with everything you may need for the duration of your stay. Downtown is just a 15 minute walk through a beautiful nature preserve where we saw deer, bunnies, and flowers. I would happily stay here again!
