Has Everything You Need!
Came up for a quick spring getaway, and could not have asked for a better place to stay! The house itself was really cool and everything was super clean and inviting. Really enjoyed the layout of the house, including the convenience of the garage. Between the hot tub and screened in porches, there was plenty of space to relax outside. And we were a short walk away from some great hikes. Great location and close to everything you'd want or need. Would definitely try to stay here again and have already talked about coming back when the ferry is in season.

Off-season girls getaway
Fresh, modern, well-decorated house. Close proximity to Oval Beach and 302 steps at Baldhead State Park. Garage use was a bonus. Eclectic, artistic community with wonderful restaurants and unique shops.

Why they chose this property

I chose this property because of the great location in Saugatuck and smart, modern design of the house.

What makes this property unique

Just a few steps away from the chain ferry, the stairs of Mt. Baldhead and a short walk to Oval Beach all while tucked in the beautiful wooded dunes.
