Photos and Description of the Saugatuck / Douglas vacation house rental
3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, Sleeps 6

Charming single-family home vacation rental on cul-de-sac in Douglas, located at 3060 Park Drive, south off Center Street. With a short walk to the Douglas Public Beach on Lake Michigan, you will not be disappointed when you arrive to relax in this lovely home.

You will feel right at home from the moment you walk in - whether it be from your special welcome gift to the many bathroom and toiletry amenities provided so you can relax and enjoy your stay.

With 1300 square feet of living space you definitely will not feel cramped. The Pottery Barn furnishings complemented by personally chosen antiques abound throughout this professionally decorated home. See why this property is fully booked every Summer season!

Main Living Area: The Living Room area opens onto a screened porch that runs the length of the home. Enjoy relaxing on the porch, with its wicker love seat, chairs, tables and reading lamp. Abounding with light from the 3 sets of French Doors, the front living area feels open and peaceful, bringing the outdoors inside (don't be surprised if you see a family of deer outside the front porch).

Second Floor Living Area: On the 2nd level, there are 2 additional bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The second bedroom has 1 queen bed with plenty of closet space. The third bedroom, nick-named the 'Cowboy Room' contains 2 twin beds; a full-size baby crib is available upon request. Both bedrooms are bright and charming. The 2nd floor full bath is large and spacious.

Area Info: You'll love the location of this home, within walking distance of Lake Shore Drive where you can enjoy gorgeous sunsets, and the lovely Douglas public beach. It's only a short drive or an easy bike ride (using a provided mountain bike) to downtown Douglas or Saugatuck for dining, shopping, or boating. Douglas, Michigan is the proud recipient of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Distinctive Destination Award. Douglas is approximately 10 miles south of Holland, Michigan.

All the comforts of home...

My family spent a very relaxing weekend in this cozy cottage. The house was clean, beautifully decorated, and the beds were comfortable. The owner was very responsive. The location was private and quiet. It was too chilly to spend much time on the beach, but we really enjoyed our hike to Mt. Baldhead. Would definitely stay here again!

“We were pleased to find how well this cottage fit our needs. It's homey, functional, and well equipped, and we love the neighborhood. We were impressed with the lovely landscaping, and having a garage was very handy for us. We appreciate the chance to stay here, and we hope to do so again!”

Great house in excellent location

My wife & I very much enjoyed our stay at this house for our first anniversary. Most everything was perfect except for the fireplace not working as expected and kitchen wear & tear that made it difficult to cook. Overall pretty great. Owner made the rental very easy. We hope to go back.

Owner's Response: In response to the fireplace not working, we did offer to send someone out to look at it as soon as we received the feedback but the renter declined. We are sorry they had trouble with the kitchen but when they checked in after we had checked in with them, they did not bring up at all and said everything was fine. Otherwise, as always, we would have offered to send someone out to make the repair ASAP.

Update: We have since heard back from the renter and he clarified it was only the cutlery that was dull in the kitchen. We have replaced them with new knives.

As always, thanks for the feedback.

wonderful vacation

What a perfect house, bigger than a 'cottage' close to lakes and towns; everything was there -- need a cookie sheet? no problem. Olive oil, salt, pepper, sugar, coffee? Right there. Beach towels, fluffy shower towels, bathrobes, sweet screened in porch for coffee in the morning....what's not to love?
The house is like a little Pottery Barn, spotless and air conditioned. The grill was right out back, great bikes in the garage.
When can we go back?
