Perfectly wonderful!

I rented this house for my family (five adult siblings with spouses and kids) and could not have been happier with the accommodations. The layout is spacious and affords plenty of room for large families or groups. There is ample driveway parking (which is a huge plus). The house is well-maintained and offers so many "extras" that we never once bemoaned the fact that we forgot something. The owner has thought of nearly everything to make your stay enjoyable.

The property itself is fairly private and located in a quiet area. Lakeshore Drive offers a great venue for long walks (in either direction). The yard, decks, porch, and sunroom offer plenty of seating/eating space. The kitchen never feels crowded (even with kids under foot). There are plenty of comfy chairs in quiet places if you wish to read in solitude. The game room is a great diversion for the kids after a day at the beach (which is an easy 5-10 minute walk, even for the little ones). The adults loved the Wii (maybe more than the kids). Once the kids are asleep, the hot tub is a heavenly resting place.

Downtown Saugatuck and Douglas are minutes away. I rode my bike to breakfast nearly every morning (try Ida Red's--great food). Everyday People Cafe is nice for dinner. My family did a dune ride which was loads of fun. Kayaking is also easily accessible.

As my sister-in-law commented when we left, "there is not a negative associated with this house." Needless to say, we are returning in 2010.

Owner's Response: Dear Mary,
I am so happy you enjoyed our home by the waves. We are looking forward to you returning and adding more memories. We've added a new poker table for texas hold em fun. We now have a radio flyer little red wagon to tow your goodies to the beach. I hope next year you get a chance to enjoy the local wine tours.
Thanks again, Margaret

Priceless memories made with an amazing house!

5 of 5
Submitted: August 14, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
We stayed here last month to celebrate the 1-year anniversary of my dad's successful open heart surgery. There were 20 of us ranging in age from 1-65. This house was perfect for all of us! My 6 year says "this vacation was better than Disney World!" We all loved the secluded location. Even with so many of us in the house, we never felt crowded. There was always a place you could go to find quiet to relax and read or sleep. People ate dinner outside and inside. We fit all 20 of us both in and out for dinners. Out back was always action packed with kids on the swingset, adults chatting, and grilling out! The house is well equipped to cook dinner every night (we tested it out!). Currently my kids are petitioning for us to add a game room to our own house. They were most sad to say goodbye to the fun had in that room! We appreciated how all the bedrooms were located near a bathroom, so no bathroom had to share more than 2 or 3 families. While we did enjoy the short walk to Douglas Beach, we LOVED Oval Beach, which is only a 5 minute drive. We all agreed, we could not have asked for a more perfect house or location for our vacation. With my Type-A personality, I was also very grateful for the owner and her wonderful helpfulness! I would highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a vacation home with a lifetime of priceless memories to be made!
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for the lovely compliments. I am happy you enjoyed our house. The weather was perfect for your week at the beach. Come back again.

Perfect Wedding Base

5 of 5
Submitted: July 27, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
We rented this home for a week, as our son was getting married on the shores of Lake Michigan in Douglas. Coming all the way from Australia, for us, this house proved to be ideal. Most of our travelling wedding guests stayed with us, enjoying this great house with its many amenities. We hosted an evening meal for 30 people one evening, though it never seemed the least bit crowded. The beds were most comfortable, and the living spaces were many and varied. The house had everything we could possibly have wanted, the kitchen was better than home, and the wi-fi had a good workout with our guests. The hot tub was superb, especially late at night in the privacy of the back deck. We appreciated that the house was better than basic, with lovely decor, and great holiday features- like the games room, the reading room and the fire pit.
Douglas beach is a superb place to stay, and thius is a fine hoome to stay in.
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for the glowing review! Anytime you are back in the States, do stop by and stay in Saugatuck again.

Exceeded our high expectations

Because of my husband's illness, I was not able to join the rest of the family until they had been in the house for several days. My children and grandchildren, upon their arrival, excitedly called me to say, "You won't believe this house!! It is huuuuge!! It's awesome! There are so many rooms! This is the best place we've ever rented!" etc. They were right. The house was great. There were places we could all be together and enough room that someone could go off and read quietly. There was an incredible amount of space, both inside and out. The gourmet cooks among us (my daughters-in-law) were impressed by the kitchen furnishings. I was impressed that the bathrooms appeared so much newer and more modern than I had expected. There were many things to do that we didn't get to because we really enjoyed being in the house. A fishing expedition yielded 80 pounds of lake trout; everyone spent time at both Douglas and Oval Beaches; the teen-agers camped out in the game room. I loved sitting around the firepit in the evening. The hot tub was a big attraction. The screened-in dining area was fun. All in all, it was a great experience for our multi-generational group. Beautiful house, beautiful area, beautiful weather. We hope to do it again next year.

Owner's Response: Awww, thank you so much for the lovely review! We are looking forward to having you as guests next year. We are adding a kids play set so there will be even more outside fun. We just added the popular baggo game for the familiy, a junior sized one for the younger ones and and adult one for tournament play! Come on back and enjoy!!

We just got back from this great house! The rooms are quite spacious and so many nooks and crannies. Loved the porches and just watching the deer while you read a book or drink coffee. The kitchen is fully equipped and wide open floor plan so you can all be together. The driveway is great and huge!
There are so many places to take a nap or just read while the rest of the family is doing their thing. The street is beautiful and great location. Highly recommend the acconodations and such a great place to just "chillax". Must bigger than anticipated!!!!!
