This cottage was wonderful. The location really can't be beat if you're coming to enjoy the town of Saugatuck. It was an easy walk everywhere in town. The reserved parking space in the driveway was appreciated since parking can be difficult in town, especially during a holiday weekend (we stayed over the 4th of July). Janet sent easy access instructions ahead of time, but was home when we arrived so introduced herself and showed us the space. Note it is a guest house right behind the main house, so Janet and her husband are close by. It still felt very private. They were very welcoming to me and my husband, as well as our two small dogs. Janet provided lots of small snacks and drinks in the cottage. Everything was impeccably furnished and extremely clean. I'd highly recommend and would stay again!

Super clean, set super close to water. Short walk to all the shops and bars and restraunts. Saugatuck is very busy with tourists and parking is a nightmare to find. This was the perfect place to stay without needing our car to go enjoy all the downtown and waterfront has to offer! Host had a day parking pass to Oval Beach waiting in our room which was greatly appreciated!

A great property. Close to everything. Walk to shops and great food. The cottage is as advertised. Clean and stocked with anything you would need for a comfortable stay. Would stay there again!!!

What a little gem this property is! It is a small and cozy little studio, which was perfect for our getaway from the kids. My wife and I loved every minute, including the ability to bring our dog along, who became a town favorite in Saugatuck. The location is ideal, allowing you an easy walk to everything the town has to offer, including all of the great shops and restaurants. Not having to worry about driving/parking is a MASSIVE perk of this rental. There is not a full kitchen in the rental, which wasn't an issue for us, so take advantage of all of the great places to eat in town. Janet made us feel more like house guests than renters! She goes above and beyond with little touches to make you feel welcome and taken care of. This is one of the first rentals we've ever had where we debated just booking the same week in advance for the next year. It was great!

Janet is the absolute best! She puts her personal touch on the property as well as her guests. Can't say enough good things!

Wonderful private getaway within walking distance of downtown Saugatauk and close drive to Felt Mansion and State Park in walking trails. Hosts are welcoming and have thought of everything. Very comfortable getaway!

The cottage was very sweet; well supplied and cozy and so close to downtown Saugatuck. The hosts were lovely and welcoming. The cottage is more of a “studio” than a 1- bedroom which was a surprise as we thought the bedroom would be separate, but it was not a problem. A couple would be happy there!

The cottage is really close to everything in Saugatuck. The hosts were wonderful and had thought through the small things like having coffee, snacks, and water for guests. Really enjoyable stay!

Came up for the tulips, but so glad we stayed here and made the most of Saugatuck. Delicious food and so close to everything we enjoyed walking every single day. Our dog Snickers also got to enjoy his first trip and explore. Janet was a lovely host, had snacks and drinks for us and doggie bags for snick. Definitely recommend staying here and would stay again. Very clean and so quiet, loved the privacy of it. Hopefully we can come back soon!

Loved the ability to walk to restaurants and shops in downtown Saugatuck.

Janet was a gracious and thoughtful host, the cottage met all our needs and was well located in downtown Saugatuck while being quietly tucked away behind the owner’s main house.

Absolutely beautiful property in an amazing location! The hosts are wonderful. It seems like so much thought has gone into the guest experience. Saugatuck was a wonderful town to visit and we enjoyed our stay. We hope to be back!

My partner and I love this place-clean, cozy, quiet, comfortable and has everything you’d ever need. However, the best thing about this place are the owners. They make the stay so great with their welcome and interest in our wandering without being overbearing. We will always go back there because of them.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Janet’s cottage. She is very warm and friendly and she had cookies waiting for us in the cottage that were really yummy! The pictures don’t it it justice, the cottage is very charming and well decorated and the view outside the patio doors was lovely and made it secluded and private. The location is perfect, short walk to everything. Loved it.

Really clean cozy and inviting private cottage with just what the 2 of us and our small dog needed. Very nice shady property surrounded us; loved that we could walk or bike everywhere. Janet could not have been nicer or more helpful and was so welcoming! We plan to stay again in the future, as there is lots to see and do in the Saugatuck area!

This was our first time visiting Saugatuck. It was a perfect spot for my fiancé, dog and myself. We loved exploring the area and were able to walk to everything in Saugatuck. Janet was kind and helpful. It was an easy check in/ check out process and property was cozy and clean!

What a fabulous little cottage and location. Best of all was the hospitality of the host Janet. She greeted us when we checked in and provided fresh water and a treat for our dog. She was so helpful - felt like staying with family! Very clean and so well stocked. Would give her a 10 star review!!!

Great little cottage. Great host. Great location. Will go back again.

We look forward every year to our stay at The Summer Place! The cottage is adorable, we have everything we need (and more!) Janet and Fred always go above and beyond for us! This year we found some very nice updates that added to the charm of The Summer Place! A big THANK YOU to our hosts, we will see you next year!

Janet was a gracious host! More than met our expectatons! Perfect retreat for my husband and I and our dog. Highly recommend!!

We just stayed for a second time at this property. Very convenient and extremely well managed. Janet does a fabulous job.

This property is A+++Janet met us upon arrival and could not have been more welcoming. The cottage is lovely, spotless, and cozy. The owners go over and beyond anticipating what you might need even providing snacks, coffee pods, and any toiletries that might have been forgotten. We highly recommend. If you don’t stay there, you are missing a precious little nugget of Saugatuck. ❤️

Really enjoyed our stay! Place is super cute and just as stated. Loved tge location to town. Janet was so pleasant. Free beach pass was a nice touch! Will stay again!

The location was perfection for walking downtown. The house is just as advertised. Cozy and everything we needed.

Location of property was great and cottage was perfect for two adults and small dog. Walking distance to all shops and restaurants as well as reserved parking. Janet and Fred provided us with plenty of info and things to do in Saugatuck. Janet even baked cookies to celebrate our anniversary. Will definitely stay again during our next visit to Saugatuck.

Cozy coach house meant for 2. Great for long weekend. It’s close to everything in downtown Saugatuck. It was great to bring our dogs too. Thanks to Janet for being a great host!

The property is well maintained and just as advertised. Janet greeted us with wonderful hospitality, a well stocked refrigerator and snacks, and plenty of coffee. If the weather has cooperated we would’ve used the deck and outside sitting area more. But since it was colder and raining occasionally we used the love seat and sitting area inside to talk and enjoy some downtime. Great time.

It was great! Everything you could think of needing in a rental was supplied. The owners welcomed us and were so hospitable- warm, friendly and a great sense of humor! We will stay there again if it’s available when we are!

Would highly recommend. Very close to town and an easy walk. The place itself was well stocked and even had some snacks! Check in and out process was simple. My husband and I (and our dog Odin) had a great time!

We enjoyed our stay and especially enjoyed the proximity to downtown. The cottage is comfortable and clean. There is no view but can stroll to river in a few minutes walk.

Absolutely perfect 2 person stay! Janet was amazing and her place is perfect. Wonderful location, quiet, close, and great parking. It's everything you need for a long week or short stay! We will be back!

The place was perfect for my wife and along with our two small dogs. Owners are very friendly and accommodating. Perfect location with a short walk to Saugatuck
