THE PROPERTY AND LOCATION:
The house is located on Lakeshore Drive (on the Lake side of Lakeshore Dr) just south of the Saugatuck city limits. This 1+ acre property boasts a beautiful view of an orchard and woods and is within 200 yds to Lake Michigan and a lake access point (a country roadway that ends at the waters of Lake Michigan) We are also within walking distance via beach or Lakeshore DR. to a large public beach located at West Side County Park.**We are not located directly on Lake Michigan but we are a very short stroll to the Lake (ab. 2 minutes walk down a sandy lane...no busy roads to cross!).
* The beach and access point are not owned or managed by Orchard Beach House, LLC.
On most days you can hear the roar of Lake Michigan from the house and property. There is plenty of room to roam and enjoy the wildlife including birds, wild turkeys, deer, fox, rabbits, and so much more.
We are situated in an area that offers the privacy and quiet of being in the Lakeshore area, forests and wild preserves while still being a quick drive(5-20min) to the downtowns of Saugatuck, Douglas, Fennville, Glenn, South Haven and Holland.
Enjoy a game of volleyball, touch football, croquet or other outdoor games on the beautiful grassy lawns. A short stroll down a beautiful sandy, tree canopied lane (approximately one block) will bring you to a Lake Michigan access point.
The lake access is one of the only access points to Lake Michigan in the area without stairs! A rare and helpful find for young children, the elderly or disabled. The access point can be used to access miles of lakeshore to swim, fish, walk, run or even launch your kayak or rowboat (sorry, no access to launch large boats). Enjoy the sparkling waters of Lake Michigan!
Just a short stroll north along the shoreline is a public beach at West Side County Park. This beach can be used for sunbathing, games and activities. The park contains a very large (630 ft.) public beach, playground and grassy area, approximately 2/10ths of a mile north on Lakeshore Drive or via a short (approx.4-5 minutes) beach walk.
The city limits of Saugatuck can be reached in about five+ minutes (driving) and the downtown shopping district in approximately ten minutes or less. South Haven and Holland are about a 20 minute drive either North (Holland) or South (South Haven).
SAUGATUCK/DOUGLAS:
