Great Getaway
I wanted a little "me" time so I decided to stay in Saugatuck and explore for the first time. The location was perfect. The hot tub was great. I couldn't be happier with the experience.

1st Anniversary Stay
My wife and I took a long weekend trip for our first anniversary to Saugatuck. The Oriole was in a great location with parking on site, and was easily walkable to the shops of downtown Saugatuck. It was exactly as advertised. We had a great trip and enjoyed our stay!

Oriole cottage
We enjoyed our weekend stay at the Oriole Cottage. We took in the tulip festival in Holland and enjoyed the quite laid back atmosphere of the cottage. We relaxed in the hot-tub and enjoyed cooking on the grill. Just a great overall stay. Thank you!

Great location!
Great location, absolutely loves the hot tub, we visited late October. The only reason for 1 less star is the bed was really really hard. Made it incredibly difficult to sleep. We were able to open windows to get air flow, but would also really benefit from some kind of fan. A keurig would have been nice too. Considering it only sleeps 1-2 people. But can’t beet the location to town and hot tub.

Place needs an update!
Bed and pillows were awful! Bathroom was soooo bad. Shower was like being in a coffin. No railing going up the stairs! So over priced for the shape of the place. Loved the location but would never recommend anyone stay there. Much better competition out there!

Everything was great during our stay. Great location. I did attempt to communicate with the owner after booking because I had a potential conflict, but after no response from him...I let it go and just assumed the $$ loss. That was frustrating but the actual place was nice.
