THE SPACE
A true “one of a kind” home, this gorgeous 3-bedroom/2-bath vacation rental has been fully renovated and includes great natural lighting, elegant, yet comfy furniture, stylish accents, and bamboo flooring.
The chef's kitchen has quartzite countertops, high-end appliances, and a cozy breakfast nook. The posh living room features a projector screen hooked up to Apple TV for theater-style viewing, and a billiard table with window views to the wooded property outside.
All three bedrooms offer a cozy and comfortable living space. With crisp, high-quality linens, plush pillows, and tasteful decor that creates a serene atmosphere. Each bedroom is thoughtfully designed to ensure a restful and pleasant experience for all guests.
Bedroom 1: King bed
Bedroom 2: King bed
Bedroom 3: Bunk-bed (Full-over-full) + Twin-size daybed
The primary ensuite has a soaker tub, tiled walk-in shower, and twin-sink marble-top vanity. The guests’ full bath has a quartz-topped vanity and walk-in shower.
The outdoor amenities include a patio with w/a barbecue grill, a fire pit, and a hot tub. Located near parks, playgrounds, pickleball courts, nature trails, and downtown Douglas’s excellent art galleries, restaurants, and boutiques.
Located along what has become known as the “Art Coast of Michigan,” the oh-so-charming town of Douglas offers you not only the stunning shoreline of Lake Michigan - with a backdrop of magnificent natural beauty - but also an art-lover’s paradise, rich with culture and yes, creature comforts, great restaurants and vacation-oriented amenities galore! Whether you and your guests are seeking relaxation, adventure, a dive into the arts or amazing culinary delights, this charming town has something for everyone.
At nearby Douglas Beach, you can take a leisurely stroll along the pristine shores of Lake Michigan or simply enjoy some R-and-R beneath an umbrella while lying on a beach blanket. Or head over to neighboring Oval Beach (in Saugatuck), which was ranked “One of the Top 25 Beaches in the World” by Conde Nast Travelers magazine!
As for the arts, just a few of the most popular stops for local and national artworks are the Water Street Gallery, LaFontsee Galleries, Button Gallery, Mr. Miller's Art Emporium, LebenArt Gallery and J. Petter Galleries, which features not only a curated, wide-ranging collection of artwork, but also a theater (with performances by distinguished artists) and a wine bar and shop featuring local wines, artisan cheeses and hand-poured chocolates. By the way, Douglas has a number of stylish boutiques and antique shops, including a colorful collector’s mecca, the Antique Pavilion, where you can shop for (and discover) all sorts of treasures.
If you’re looking for some outdoor fun, check out the nearby Saugatuck Dune Rides, where you’ll not only explore the dunes, one of Michigan’s true natural treasures, but also experience a unique dose of entertainment, fun and excitement! At Third Coast Paddling, you can rent canoes, kayaks or paddleboards to spend some wonderful time out on the water. There are also a number of options in Douglas for those who’d like to sail, both private sailing excursions and sailboat charters. As for food and drink, the local area has got you covered, with many superb eateries, neighborhood brew pubs, brewing companies and wineries, and cozy coffee-houses.

The house was exactly as advertised. Furnishings were beautiful and the house was very well stocked.

We loved our stay. The house is beautiful and comfortable, and both kids and adults loved it. The location is excellent, with most of what we needed just a few minutes away. Highly recommend!
5.0
Wonderful accommodations and with everything you need to host family with a toddler and a dog. And just a 15-20 minute walk to Downtown Douglas.

We stayed at the Bird Cage for our Mom and Adult Daughter weekend. It was the perfect place for our party of 5. The house is beautifully decorated and the host has ensured you have everything you will need for a comfortable stay. There were beach and bath towels, shampoo and bath soaps, laundry supplies, and everything you could possibly need in the well equipped kitchen.
The back yard is nice with the hot tub and fire pit. In the morning as we drank coffee on the back patio, we saw deer walking through the yard.
There are so many cute shops and wonderful restaurants minutes away in downtown Douglas and Saugatuck. Also really close is access to the beach and sand dunes.
Would highly recommend!!

Had a great time at the birdcage. Property is beautiful and private. We had the best time relaxing in the hot tub and building a nice fire pit at the end of long days hiking the nearby trails. Highly recommend this spot esp for families or people with dogs, very kid and dog friendly stay.

Everything was great. The Kids loved the pool table and played every minute of the day, as now they want us to buy one for our house.

Everything was spotless, check in was smooth, and management was prompt in replying to any questions we had. We enjoyed all of the thoughtful touches, like the welcome wine bottle for us and cookies for the kids, the little soaps and conditioners laid out in the bathrooms, etc. Everything you could want is in the kitchen, there were plenty of towels and blankets to go around, etc.
Our crew really enjoyed the pool table and hot tub, as well as the nice deep tub in the master bath. It was a great way to have fun and relax after the holiday. The absolute hit for the younger kids was being able to boss Alexa around, which none of them have at home. Bathroom humor abounded!
My only two items to note would be to have a cupboard available in the kitchen to put groceries. It's nice that there are so many gadgets and serving bowls, etc, but we realized there wasn't a space for the things we brought. We just ended up pushing some things toward the back in the top pantry cupboard to make room. Also, the main projector in the living room only had Apple play. We are an Android family, so we were unable to use the projector. I almost considered bringing our travel Roku, but left it at home. I would have been able to plug that into the second HDMI. There was a DVD player and Nintendo system, but I'm not sure how that would have been able to plug into the projector on the opposite wall.
Those items did not impact our enjoyment of the space at all- thank you for a wonderful stay!

My husband and I, our 3 adult daughters, and our dogs stayed at this house for a long Thanksgiving weekend.
The house is beautifully decorated, very clean, comfortable and a great place for a late fall weekend. The house had everything we could possibly need, including plenty of beach and bath towels, bath soaps, shampoo,..., in the lovely bathrooms, comfortable bed linens, and any and all kitchen supplies in the fantastic kitchen where we prepared a full Thanksgiving dinner! Amazing!!
The hot tub and fire pit area in the backyard and the pool table in the large living room area were great bonuses! Every day we saw deer and wild turkeys in the backyard.
Downtown Saugatuck and Douglas were minutes away and had plenty of shops and restaurants. The area is beautiful, with beaches and incredible dunes.
My family agrees--a return trip is in our future!

Our stay at The Bird's Nest was terrific. The house was fully equipped with everything you need for a great vacation. It was really clean and comfortable. The master bed was so comfortable we kept oversleeping!

Our girls' weekend couldn't have gone better - the Birdcage was everything and more that was advertised. The nine of us give the experience 18 thumbs up, and we're already talking about when we can come again.

This was a beautiful property! There were deer in the back yard almost daily! The house was amazing and had everything you could have needed!

Great space for hosting a larger get together!
5.0
The Birdcage is beautifully furnished, very clean, and nicely stocked with towels, paper products, soap/detergent, and toiletry items. Communication with Juniper Holiday & Home was great. They were professional, provided timely and detailed instructions, and were extremely quick to respond to any questions/concerns. Our family really enjoyed the hot tub and the pool table. We would highly recommend this property. The only caveat is that traffic noise is fairly significant (especially in the bedrooms), given the house's proximity to the freeway. Aside from that, this house did not disappoint. It was just as nice in person as it appears in the photos!
5.0
Home was very nice and accurate to description. It is on a property located on longish drive away from light trafficked street. Very convenient location in regards to beaches, trails and towns of Douglas and Saugatuck.
