About this house rental

Spectacular Lake Michigan views, sunsets, and fireplace all within close proximity to the quaint resort towns of Douglas and Saugatuck make this home the perfect vacation spot for a family vacation with grandparents. This ultra clean home completed in 2005 has a grand terrace overlooking Lake Michigan where you can enjoy outdoor dining with the large gas grill, a Lake Michigan sunset or simply watch your family play a game of badminton on the lawn.

We are in the process of rebuilding our beach staircase and expect it to be completed by the beginning of June 2022. Our guests will have access to 150 feet of beach directly in front of our home.

Even before the COVID-19 Pandemic, we always allowed at least 29 hours between guests to enable a deep cleaning of our home. During the Pandemic, we are investing even more time to disinfect surfaces throughout our home.

There are 6 bedrooms and 3.5 baths (a full bath per level), and our home sleeps 12. We have a second family room room and gaming area for the kids located in our lower level.

There is central heat and air conditioning throughout the home. Linens and towels are provided. Smoking, pets and guests of guests are not allowed.

First floor: The expanse of Lake Michigan is your backdrop as you first enter this home and take in the wall of windows that separate the outdoor terrace and views of Lake Michigan from the great room and adjoining kitchen. Hickory wood beams on the two storied cathedral ceiling adorn the great room which hosts a cozy wood burning stone fireplace, 42” plasma television, cable and on-demand video service and an indoor/outdoor stereo system complete with multi-disk CD player. The fully equipped kitchen (dishwasher, gas stove and oven, microwave, garbage disposal, double door refrigerator/freezer, wine cooler) boasts a family-sized dining table in addition to kitchen-island seating with spectacular views all around. A full sized washer and dryer are located in the laundry room. There is a powder room and private office complete with laser printer. The first floor master bedroom suite has a king sized bed, indoor/outdoor stereo system, remote controlled ceiling fan & lights, and French doors leading out to the terrace. The adjoining private master bathroom includes a large shower, separate sinks and a whirlpool bathtub.

Second floor: There are four bedrooms and an extra large bathroom with separate shower/toilet and double sink areas. Two bedrooms have phenomenal Lake Michigan views with glass/French doors leading to an outdoor shared balcony. These bedrooms are furnished with king sized beds. The third very spacious bedroom is furnished with a king sized bed with a pack-n-play and bassinette (the quietest room in the house). The fourth bedroom is furnished with a trundle bed containing two single mattresses. All upstairs bedrooms have remote control ceiling fans/lights and blackout shades.

Lower level: There is a large family room with tv , a bedroom with a queen sized bed, and a full bathroom.

Toys: There are three adult and two youth-sized bicycles, a portable outdoor fire pit, croquet, badminton, whiffle ball and other assorted toys for use.

Fun within five miles: 1 mile to Downtown Douglas, 2 miles to Downtown Saugatuck, fine dining, art galleries, shopping, u-pick orchards and farms (blueberry, raspberry, peach, apple), dune buggy rides, wine tasting, golfing, sailing, boating, antiquing, live theater/music, film festival, hands-on art barn (mosaics, ceramics, fused glass jewelry making for all ages), state/local hiking trails/parks/beaches (Mt. Baldhead, Oval Beach, Douglas Beach, Saugatuck Dunes State Park), bowling, fishing and beautiful walks along the Lake Michigan beachfront or Lake Shore Drive.

Big, comfortable home, well suited for our multigenerational family reunion. Well appointed and stocked with everything you’ll need for a stay at the beach and meals at home. Wonderful rental, and I’ve stayed in quite a few!

We would like to start out by thanking Tara and Randy for sharing their lovely lake home with our family! Our family of 10 fit perfectly! There was 6 adults and 4 children. We had plenty of room! Very accommodating! We were never wondering what to do next! So many options! We especially loved having Lake Michigan right across the street! The sunsets were breathtaking! We took the Transit to Downtown Saugatuck for shopping and dinner! We were able to go putt putting, a ride in the dunes and of course our Beach Day Picnics! Shopping was a definite plus! We would definitely love to come back! We also enjoyed a Michigan made gift basket made by Tara and Randy! A nice warm touch! Thank you again Tara and Randy for your warm hospitality! Until next time, Lynn and Dave

Lovely views of Lake Michigan inside and outside of this spacious, beautifully decorated, cozy home. Plenty of room for a big group to cook, eat, and hang out together. Stocked very thoughtfully with every detail we needed to feel at home and comfortable. The private beach is wonderful and the neighborhood is perfect for walkers and joggers. The manager, Tara, is the most helpful, welcoming and organized property manager I have ever worked with. The bluff at sunset is our new happy place!

This house is very large, clean and has EVERYTHING you need for a great vacation. Towels, bikes, beach chairs/toys and games for outdoor or inside are all provided. You don't need to bring anything except your swimsuit. The view is amazing and their section of beach is by far the best in the area. A great new coffee shop and the famous Douglas Root Beer Barrel is walking or biking distance! The towns of Douglas and Saugatuck are filled with great food, shopping and live music! Other adventures like putt putt, dune rides and sunset cruises are just minutes away. If you are looking for an easy fun filled vacation with amazing sunsets this is the place to stay!
