Welcome to Douglas Cottage

The kitchen is fully stocked with all your basic needs, dining for 4 with 3 bar stools at the breakfast bar, a spacious living room, three bedrooms, and two full bathrooms. Settle in for the night by cozying up next to the electronic fireplace and turning on your favorite movie. Wake up and enjoy fresh air with your morning coffee by sitting out on the screened in porch that is attached to the Primary Suite.

SLEEPING

This is the second year in a row we’ve rented this house for the Douglas Halloween Parade. It’s in a perfect location, and we love the house itself. We plan to reserve it again for next year!

The cottage is very cozy and nicely decorated. The location is great. Close to beach & shopping. The only issues we had were the coffee maker did not work properly and toilet roll holder in master en suite fell off the wall when attempting to place a roll of toilet paper. We had a great time. Thanks

Absolutely Perfect!
Extremely clean, comfortable, prime location and perfect for our friend getaway! Owners were super responsive, the place had so many outdoor areas to enjoy (firepit area, screened in back porch, etc.) Landscaping was excellent and there is so much to enjoy in this area! (Beach, art galleries, shops, so much more!) Thank you!

Good house! The floors are strange and uneven which wasn't great for toddlers, but overall convenient location, clean and a little fenced in outdoor area was lovely!

Perfect quick getaway
Loved the location! Walk to coffee and restaurants, short drive to beaches & Saugatuck. Bunk beds were a hit with the kids. Open layout was great, especially enjoyed the screened-in sun room off the Master. We will be back next year!

Beautifully decorated and comfortable
Our first impression of the Douglas Cottage was concerning as the front deck was missing. Once we got inside, though, our concerns went away as this is a truly beautiful property which is expertly decorated. We assume that they are in the process of rebuilding the deck. If we would have received some communication that this was happening, we would not have had any concerns. This is a split bedroom home with the master on one side of the house and the two other bedrooms on the other side. Thank you for sharing this lovely home with us. We really enjoyed our time there.

We had a wonderful time, such a convenient location, close to farmhouse, the root beer barrel, and the beach. We spent the weekend all over Saugatuck and Douglas and loved coming back to the fenced yard and screened porch at night. A really great house. Thanks for being such great hosts!
