Second floor has master bedroom (queen bed) with private sun porch, 3rd bedroom handcrafted bunk-bed (full on bottom, single on top) and full bath. Kitchen is fully out fitted Keurig pod or drip coffee (get some fresh roasted beans from Uncommon Grounds, just two blocks) - just bring your favorite food and beverages.

The house was beautiful and roomy for all of us ( 4 adults). We loved the grounds and how close it was to town. We loved a lot of the old features in this home. It was very clean when we arrived.

The house had a lot of charm, loved the squeaky floors and we had a blast of the Moose Rocker, especially trying to get my 87 year old Mom off of because her daughters were laughing too hard. The yard person Chris was very nice and informative on house and grounds. The Host Ken was very accommodating

We loved this charming and spacious house. Super location, steps to the heart of everything but on a very quiet residential block. Ken was a gracious host and responded to my question very quickly. Very happy and will be back!

We were able to walk to shops and restaurants,
and though it was in a residential neighborhood, we had our own private space in the side yard with the fire pit.

Such a great house tucked in the woods and only a minute or two from the restaurants and water!
10.0
This house was fantastic and everything was as-promised. The historic house is well-kept, the yard and firepit absolute perfection, and it was great for two couples and kids. My only small issue was the light coming in in the morning in the upstairs rooms - the house faces east and the blinds provide privacy but no darkening. Curtains would be really nice. The kitchen had literally everything we could ask for, and the firepit and grill had tons of tools (kept in the old outhouse lol.) Good communication with owner. Note, though, if you are coming from another time zone, VRBO might have the wrong check out time, the correct one is posted inside the door (10am).

This is our second time staying at the property. We love it's proximity to the downtown area and the house itself is great. Lot's of space to hang out, clean, and well appointed. Owner is super easy to work with; check in and check out are a breeze. We had a lovely girls weekend in Saugatuck.

We loved the house! It was perfect for us, our kids and the 4-month-old grandbaby. Super close & enjoyable walk to downtown. The town in February has enough options for food, drinks and shopping, but I will say lots of places are closed in the winter/off-season. We had a wonderful time relaxing at the house.

It was beautiful and well appointed. Furnishings and amenities great. Only 2 small issues; a few upstairs pillows kind of flat and all 4 of us were surprised and disappointed that such a lovely home would be supplied with 1 ply toilet tissue!
