This is lakefront with a paddleboat, canoe and kayak. Fishing can be right off the dock on this quiet 'no wake' lake. Lake Michigan State Park and Dunes is just down the road. Bring your bikes, bike trails go to downtown.

Golf: Visit the shops or art galleries in Saugatuck or Douglas, go for a dune buggy ride, charter a fishing boat or sailboat, rent jet skis, go fruit-picking, at one of the many local orchards, visit the Fenn Valley Vineyards or just stay on the porch and read a book! If you choose not to drive, Saugatuck/Douglas Interurban will pick you up across the street or all activities are minutes by bike. Goshorn Lake is a spring-fed lake where you can fish off the dock or small boat. This lake has a sandy bottom. This is a well-maintained home. No smoking inside please by you or your guests! We ask that you leave the house as you found it (including boat), with the exception of the bedding and towels. This is our second home, please treat it gently. Outdoor shower with warm water to keep beach sand out of house.

What a wonderful vacation home! My entire family enjoyed the home, the lake and the lovely town of Saugatuck. It was like a vacation in a bottle. The home is well maintained and beautiful. We can't describe how comfortable the wonderful owners have made it. The kitchen was perfect for our large family. We enjoy cooking together and there was more than enough space. We loved the open floor plan, it allowed us to all spend more time together. We recommend adding the paddle boat to your stay, the lake is too beautiful to miss. Book us for next year!

Great Home For Family Vacation-Beautiful Lake -Great Location

5 of 5
Submitted: August 11, 2011 Stayed: July 2011
What a fun,relaxing time our family had in this wonderful vacation home! Having the beautiful lake right outside was great.The kids loved jumping right off the dock and swimming out to the swim raft.Having the canoe,kayak and paddle boat right there was an added bonus.The guys enjoyed the fishing and even the little ones caught fish.A joy to watch their excitement.
The house had plenty of room for our family of 14.Great kitchen,comfy couch and a large sunroom for relaxing with a book or taking a nap.Plenty of toys,games and books for the kids and the adults enjoyed the pool table.
Staying here we were close to everything. Beautiful Oval Beach and Saugatuck Dunes Beach were just minutes away as well as downtown Saugatuck with it's numerous shops and restaurants.With the bike trail the kids could walk or ride their bikes into town.
The owner is so nice and had helpful suggestions.Hope to stay in this home again and would certainly recommend vacationing here for a great time.

Book Club Retreat

Submitted: October 12, 2010 Stayed: October 2010
What a super place to have our annual book club retreat. 10 ladies in a beautiful home with enough beds and baths. The decor was right out of a magazine! The river's view of the fall folliage and water fowl was so relaxing. Every member complimented this site and our stay. We had dinner one night in town amongst a friendly community and good shopping along the main strip while we waited for our reservation. It was an easy drive from Chicago, just off the expressway.

Beautiful, relaxing summer getaway

5 of 5
Submitted: July 16, 2009 Stayed: June 2009
The house was perfect for our annual family vacation. We had 4 families (13 people) and had plenty of room. The pool table was enjoyed daily by the guys until it was time for dinner and we had to turn it into the dining table. We had perfect weather to be on the lake every day and relax in the evening with a campfire right on the backyard. The house is beautifully decorated and we couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our vacation. I would highly recommend this property.
