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.

Lovely home, neighborhood and convenient
The home was immaculate and beds were very comfortable. It is also in a quiet neighborhood but only a couple of short blocks to downtown. It was a girls weekend but the accommodations would be great for families also.

We took another visit to Saugatuck, this time with the girls of the family. It was perfect; we spread out, kids played while we adults sipped wine and cooked some great meals. Loved time outside and walked town. Played outside with the littles and chatted the nights away. Love this place!

This was the perfect spot for my family. Everything on the listing was very accurate and Liz, the property manger, was very easy to communicate with during our stay. It was an easy walk into town.

Fabulous Friend Weekend
We had the best time, visiting Saugatuck… Time to catch up, and relax, shop, eat. Although little rainy outdoors, this cozy home provided us the opportunity to enjoy a warm fire, drinks in hand, and watch the colors in the leaves outdoors. We walked to town, and it took all of two minutes to be at shops, and the waterfront! Would absolutely come again! Very nice host and very clean accommodations, all important in a nice stay for the weekend!

Ladies weekend
We had a lovely time in this beautiful home. It is in a prime location, just down the street from shopping, restaurants and boat rentals. While it worked great for our girls weekend, it would also be wonderful for families. The bedrooms on the main floor are spacious and comfortable. The sleeping room upstairs is so quaint. We felt like we were having a slumber party. We can’t wait to book this property for next summer.

Perfect!
This rental is our all time family favorite. Loved it so much that we booked it for this summer when we had been in it last summer for only one day! Perfect amount of space, separation of bedrooms is ideal. Huge amount of dishes, glasses, silverware etc. for meals as well as close proximity to walk to town for ice cream! A lovely, lovely home.

Best location, ample space
We had a bachelor party here with eight gentleman. It was a perfect set up for our crew. The house has plenty of space aunt sleeping arrangements for everyone. The biggest strength of the property is the location. Two blocks away from Wally’s and the rest of downtown. Even being that close, the neighborhood is completely quiet and tranquil, it’s as if it is way further away than two blocks. Honestly, love this location. The backyard is great, it has a nice yard with the same privacy and a grill with a nice patio to hang out. My only gripe with the property was that it felt like it had been sitting dormant for a while when we first checked in. There were quite a few cobwebs and some bugs here and there that we had to dispense of. We contacted the host and they had the cleaning crew come by early on in our stay to do a quick dusting to get rid of everything, so we were happy for that. The host had excellent communication and I will definitely stay here again and recommend this for a large party of people that are aiming to enjoy downtown Saugatuck.
