My happy place
The cottage is cozy and comfortable . Lots of games for rainy days but also a great deck for cooking out. We had s’mores at the fire pit each night. So, so close to Walking to Douglas beach.

Perfect!
The property and location exceeded our expectations! Jackie sent a message beforehand and it was so easy to check in and get situated. While we enjoyed our time in downtown Saugatuck and Oval Beach, we really loved the neighborhood and Douglas Beach.Great for walks and riding our bikes. The cottage was so comfortable, we would definitely stay again!

Perfect for young family
We had a fantastic time on our trip. The location was great The house was just a short walk to the public beach area and a 5 minute drive to Saugatuck. The house was really well-stocked with everything that we could possibly need. The kids (7 & 10) had the best time and busied themselves with all of the board games. They declared that they want to go back to this place.
