🌟 Peaceful Oasis w/ Private beach 200 ft away+New Hot Tub+only 8 mins to town🌟

Come stay and enjoy the best of Michigan! We have a small private beach across the street and public Lake Michigan Beach access is just 1-2 miles away at Pier Cove Beach and West Side Park where you can catch the most beautiful sunsets. If you prefer warmer water just relax in the new (2024) Jacuzzi 7 person hot tub while looking out over the lush landscaped backyard that attracts hummingbirds, butterflies, deer and more. Afterwards sink into the oversized couch on the 3 seasons porch and just unwind. There is a big fire pit to roast s’mores a big Weber grill to grill out dinner. We have loads of toys, bikes, books, and games including a kid sized pac-man arcade game to keep everyone entertained. This is the perfect place for to build memories with your family and loved ones!

This is not your typical rental with a million random furniture pieces, we had our home professional decorated in 2021 which a comfortable, upscale, beach house feeling.

Best VRBO I've ever had!
My mom and I booked this house for a weekend getaway and we could not have been more pleased with the hosts, house, hospitality and accommodations! I've stayed at several VRBO's in the past, but I've never experienced the accommodations and care quite like this location. The hosts went above and beyond to really feel like you're at home. The screened in porch, hot tub and fire pit were a highlight of our stay. I couldn't recommend a better VRBO host & house - they truly extend a home to their visitors like family. We'll be coming back again!

Perfect Property!
If you are looking to visit Saugatuck/Douglas area, look no further! This home was very clean, has wonderful gathering places, and the hosts have thought of so many details to make the home welcoming and useful (ex: shower products, towels for the hot tub & beach, beach necessities like chairs & boogie boards, etc!). My family loved the backyard- hot tub, outdoor shower (for after hot tub & Lake Michigan swims), outdoor speakers to connect to, and the fire pit for smores each night. Inside, we loved the screened in porch with PacMan, comfy beds, beautiful home decor and furniture, and a kitchen with everything you need! Lake Michigan is a quick minute walk away, and we loved swimming, wave-jumping and watching sunsets there. Getting into town was simple! Saugatuck was a quick 10 minute drive, Douglas even closer. And we knew what restaurants and activities to try thanks to their amazingly detailed welcome binder! There are also some great restaurants and an ice cream shop only 5 min away. Jayna was also great with communication- before our stay and during- just to make sure we were all set and enjoying ourselves. This is a gem of a home and we highly recommend it!

Great Family Home With Thoughtful Hosts
The hosts thoughtfully provided a great stay for our family. They provided a detailed guide about the home, the neighborhood and their favorite activities and restaurants. They had many toys, games and amenities for our children that made the stay very enjoyable. Our kids really enjoyed the garage play space that led into a spacious driveway and yard. We appreciated the walkable neighborhood, navigable stairs to the private beach and the close proximity to Fennvile, Douglas, Saugatuck and South Haven. The hout tub was well cared for, the fire pit and smore makings were a nice touch and we thoroughly enjoyed the screened in porch. Would definitely recommend for a family stay.

Wooded sanctuary
We were two couples and had a wonderful time in this lovely and comfortable home close to the beach and 10 minutes from Saugatuck. We especially loved the wooded backyard with cozy furniture, gentle breezes and birds coming to the feeders - and the fire pit and hot tub! IF we had specifically wanted a beach vacation, we might have chosen something with less steep, narrow stair access on a wider, more walkable beachfront (admittedly hard to find in this area) - BUT for us this home provided a perfect balance of walkable access, natural beauty, comfort and quiet calm near great restaurants and activities. (There are plenty of bigger beaches within a quick drive.) The home and property is lovely, just as pictured. Jayna was an attentive, responsive host.

Great Lake Michigan Escape
The property was absolutely perfect for our stay! Close to what we needed, beach access was easy, and communication with a Jayna was super clear! The home felt very private, beds were comfy, and we had everything we needed to enjoy the weekend! The hot tub was awesome (and plenty of towels). Just a really great space to enjoy time with friends and be comfortable! Would absolutely stay here again!

Great for a family getaway
We had the best time with our family (includes a two- and five-year-old). The house was incredibly kid-friendly and my sons are already asking when we can go back to "our Michigan house." Yes, the stairs to the beach are steep, but our (admittedly fearless) two-year-old handled them fine.

Fall Getaway Magic
This was the most beautiful home for a weekend getaway to escape the craziness of life. Communication with Jayna was easy, quick, helpful, and so friendly. This is, by far, the nicest home I’ve ever stayed in. The windows looking out into the yard were perfect for viewing Michigan’s fall colors, falling leaves, and deer. The hot tub was so relaxing, as well as the gas fire pit. I can’t wait to plan a return trip in the near future. Thank you!

Perfect for a Relaxing Fall Get-Away
This property is perfect for families. They set-up a full-size crib for us and the home is impeccably clean. All of our favorite fall activities were just 5-10 minutes away. The furthest we travelled was to Holland and South Haven and those were just 20 minutes away. We were able to fully relax and create Fall memories with our little one.

The house was extremely clean and well maintained while being located in a perfect setting. My wife and I had a great time and already talking about coming back in the future!

great visit
We really enjoyed staying here! It was big and spacious and if you have little ones, the play room was a huge hit. It was close to downtown Douglas and Saugatuck (about 8 minute drive), close to Oval Beach (about 10 minutes or so), and very close to Pier cove beach (about 5 minutes). The house does give you access to a private beach close to the house and they mention the stairs are steep (they weren't kidding!). We did rent this house primarily because we thought it backed right up to the beach based on the pictures so that was a bit of a disappointment. We felt the stairs to the private beach were a bit too steep to attempt with a baby and all the necessary stuff. However, we still really enjoyed our stay here and I would still recommend it. The adults went down to the private beach at sunset and it was beautiful. The house is located in a very quiet area so it is very relaxing but close enough to all the fun activities. The binder they provided for us in the house gave us great ideas for things to do and places to eat and none of them disappointed. They were also very accommodating with our requests and quick to respond!
