The house was beautiful, we especially enjoyed the three seasons room. The fenced-in yard was an added bonus when traveling with our dog. Would rent again.

Lovely getaway
The cabin was lovely and within walking distance of downtown!
House was very clean on arrival. Great for exploring the area. The fenced in backyard was the reason we booked and it was worth it. Would stay here again. Loved the porch room!
Great location. Straight walk down the street to downtown. Very quiet neighborhood/street. Great fenced yard for the corgis. Loved all the windows and French doors. Absolutely nothing to complain about.

Rise N Shine Saugatuck
Lovely stay at Rise N Shine! Very nice cottage close to town. Loved the enclosed porch, open layout, comfy beds,up to date appliances, dual head shower and fenced in yard. One of our best stays in Saugatuck!!!
Beautiful home so close to town! Great neighborhood for walking and exercising pets. Be careful on the porch—slick when wet and the top step isn’t marked. Lighting can be wonky, and the beds are . . . In need of an upgrade. Kitchen was well-stocked with high-end appliances. TV was nice. Backyard was great with dogs. Would definitely stay again!

Fantastic House
We always enjoy our stay at Rise 'N Shine - it is a beautiful and well maintained property. It is close enough to downtown Saugatuck for a stroll for dinner, and far enough away so as to avoid the crowds of summer visitors. First rate in all respects!
This Vrbo has been the best experience. The place it fresh and clean and the location is great. My family and I definitely enjoyed our stay and highly recommend it.
Was a perfect stay for my bestie and me. Loved the option of the four seasons porch to feel outside when it was raining. Only less than a half mile walk to downtown Saugatuck.

Wonderful Stay
This was our fourth stay at Rise N Shine. It's an impeccable house in a great location - a short walk to the center of town, but far enough away to avoid the crowds. Can't wait to go back!
Nice property layout and linens were clean. There is a bit of a smell, but somewhat to be expected with it being dog friendly focused. You get a response in a timely manner to address any questions which helped.
This property was everything it was advertised! The house was spotless and really well laid out. We had our two dogs with us and the fenced in yard was perfect for them. We had a perfect time doing absolutely nothing for a few days, which is exactly what we were looking for! Will go back again!
This property was adorable. It was perfect for a girls weekend. When we showed up the driveway had not been plowed so that was a small challenge but otherwise everything else was great! The beds were so comfortable! We would definitely go back again!
We had a great stay in Saugatuck this past week! It was the perfect location! We walked downtown daily and were a short drive to Oval Beach and Douglas. We are a family of 5 plus our dog. We brought our own pack n play and kept the baby with us in the master bedroom. The 2 bedroom and 2 bath was perfect for our family. The screened in porch was lovely for some more indoor space.
Beautiful house - perfect rental for our quick family get a way. Was able to walk to town, shop and hang out on the heated porch. We’ll definitely be back.
Very well managed & comfortable! Fairly close to town & the waterfront, although not a short walk. Had a very nice time!
