Photos and Description of the Saugatuck / Douglas vacation cottage rental
Cottage, 3 Bedrooms + Detached Unit, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 8-9)

Butterfly Cottage is a truly unique cottage located in the Historic district of Saugatuck. Casual cottage styling mixed with colorful spaces, this cottage makes for a comfortable stay in Saugatuck. This quaint cottage will accommodate 8 or 9 people comfortably.

The main house has two bedrooms; one with a queen sized bed and the other with a full. The bungalow, just steps away in the backyard, serves as the third bedroom and has heat and air conditioning. The bungalow has a queen size bed and also bunk beds. The bungalow has a full bath that was added in 2011.

Located in the heart of the village district, plan on walking to all the in-town locations. The river is just a few hundred feet away with shops, restaurants and parks located within a 3-10 minute walk. If you are familiar with Saugatuck, Butterfly cottage is a stone's throw from the public boat launch, Gleason's market and Ida Reds.

We are happy to be one of the few places to welcome well mannered pets in our cottage. An added plus, the back yard is fully fenced.

Our home was fully booked all but 2 nights during the summer season this year. We are beginning to fill up for 2012, so please contact us early if your dates are limited. During June, July and August, we try to limit ( with some flexibility ) our rental periods to full weeks running Saturday to Saturday.

About Scott Sanderson

We purchased Butterfly Cottage in 1999 as a weekend getaway. Saugatuck is such a unique community,with a lot to offer. We enjoyed our weekends in Saugatuck so much, we sold our house in Kalamazoo and moved out to Butterfly Cottage full time from 2001 through 2003. When we decided to start a family, we made our cottage available for seasonal rentals for a few years. During this time, it was nearly always full and we enjoyed reading the comments left by our guests.

Perfect Location to see Saugatuck

5 of 5
Submitted: May 8, 2013 Stayed: May 2013
The Butterfly Cottage was the perfect place to stay and see Saugatuck. Located within walking distance of the attractions in Saugatuck. The yard is fenced so it is pet friendly and the additional bungalow gives plenty of space for everyone. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. The owners are great and easy to work with. Also, Saugatuck is pet friendly with several nice parks and places that allow pets. We had a great time in Saugatuck and visiting the local attractions located nearby. I recommend the Butterfly Cottage.

This cottage was clean, beautifully decorated, and perfect for 7 girls to getaway for the weekend. The guest house added so much room (plus another bathroom). I'd recommend this rental to anyone.

Serene Escape

5 of 5
Submitted: April 18, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
This cozy cottage has a great location, just a short 1 or 2 block walk to town. In fact, you can 'see' town as you park in front of the cottage. The cottage was more spacious than I expected and I loved the 'annex' room with the vaulted ceiling out back. The home was immaculately clean. Getting into the cottage was quick and easy, even though we arrived in the evening. The furniture and bedding were very comfy. We explored town and really enjoyed the Saugatuck Tea Party Cafe where owner Gina treated us like family as we sipped tea and ate yummy scones. We had pizza delivered from Scooters - but be warned, they cannot be bribed into doing a quick beer run for you!

Comfortable Cottage Close to Everything!

5 of 5
Submitted: April 4, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
I brought my parents who are senior citizens and our pet for a long weekend. It was decorated wonderfully, extremely clean and had everything we needed. My husband and I stayed in the detached unit with the bath which made sleeping arrangements perfect! The neighborhood is quiet, yet within walking distance to shopping. We have stayed at several places in the area and the Butterfly Cottage is our favorite. I hope we can come back this summer with other family members and enjoy the beach!!

My family and I had the most enjoyable time at this adorable cottage! There was enough room with privacy for all of us and it was so bright a cheery! The town was half closed down for the winter but there was still enough to do with the shops open and some of the resturants. It was hastle free and a nice escape from the city. The snow was beautiful and the and had no problems getting around. My grown children and I would love go back in the winter and summer time too!
