Beautiful convienant location

Everything about the house was great! It was pretty and clean and in a beautiful location that was fairly close to town. The owners were thorough and communicated well so it was easy check in and check out. Stayed there with friends for a wedding weekend and we enjoyed being able to use the hot tub and the game room in the basement. It was too rainy for the firepit but maybe next time!

Family Fun Days

Wonderful house in a great location. Good stretch of sand on the neighborhood private beach gave us the lake to ourselves most of the days. The house fit our needs as per listed. The kids had a place to play at night before bedtime as well as a nice sitting area for the adults for when the kids were sleeping. The host, Nick, was very responsive prior to our visit answering our questions and checked in on us after check-in to ensure everything was just right. Highly recommend the house.

About the host

Hosted by Nick Agnew

We bought our Saugatuck property- 'Shorewood'- because of it's tranquil and wooded locale near Lake Michigan. We built and designed our 'Shorewood' house in such a way that would comfortably accommodate large family gatherings. 'Shorewood' which sits near the beach and towns of Saugatuck and Douglas, represents to us the best that the area has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We bought this beautiful Saugatuck property because of it's perfect combination of tranquility when trying to get away from the stresses of everyday life, while still being able to be active in both athletics and cultural activities. Saugatuck has a very urbane charm to it, without the noise and the crowds of a major metro area. Our property is located in the most tranquil spot, near the sugar sand Lake Michigan shoreline. We built a house that we felt that not only our family could enjoy year round, but also, would be an ideal space for extended family or other large families or groups who could gather comfortably. Our house is in a private enclave, that has the Lake in the front end, and the peaceful woods in the back. Saugatuck constantly surprises us with it's diversity; ranging from the magnificent sunsets over Lake Michigan (right out our front door!), to the sugar sand beaches; to the Art Barn where our children, on a rainy day, can get make their own artwork...and it does not end there!

What makes this property unique

The beach! The sugar sand that squeaks when you walk on it. The dunes at the beach. The amazingly clean and beautiful, warm, Lake Michigan water during the summer. The sunsets! The summer! The Fall, when the leaves change and you can go apple picking! The endless running on beach/roads and/or the endless biking on roads...right out the front door. The safety and quiet of living on a private road in a private enclave with no traffic or noise. The short bike or drive to downtown Saugatuck or Douglas for food, culture, shopping, antiquing, or just strolling. The locale of house with fire pit, hot tub (and outdoor shower), and wildlife surrounding property. The airy and open layout, that our 4000 square foot home offers families and groups on trips.
