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.
