REVIEWS
"We had such a great time at this home! Clean, charming, with lots of history. Nearby to downtown Saugatuck. Highly recommend you stay here for your trip to Saugatuck! The home was amazing! I gave 5 stars!"
Michael S.
"This rental was perfect for our group--cozy but plenty of space, felt home-y and just right for Saugatuck. I had initially been concerned about the distance to town, but the walk was much shorter and easier than I expected. The hosts were very responsive, which made checking in and out was a piece of cake.. Would definitely recommend."

"This is a very comfortable house in a great location! It was a very short car ride to downtown Saugatuck, with great restaurants and shopping. A nice golf course was also a quick drive in the other direction. Would stay here again"
