Lakewood Lux Property - The Lookout Cottage at Treetops - HOT TUB
Treetops is Saugatuck’s only rental featuring three neighboring vintage cottages—perfect for multi-family getaways. Nestled around a shared firepit and professionally maintained hot tub, each cottage offers screened porches, harbor or dune views, and generous outdoor space for grilling and gathering. Cottages may be reserved individually or together, depending on availability. This listing is for the Lookout Cottage.
The Lookout Cottage: Open concept living with vintage cottage finishes and a lovely farm-style kitchen. A bedroom is attached to the main living space, coupled with a large bathroom, providing plenty of capacity for 4 guests. A queen-sized Room and Board sleeper sofa and sleeping porch with a twin trundle bed is available for extra sleeping. The Lookout has a large screened porch with views of the harbor. The fire pit has the best views in town, you have to see it to believe it! Includes washer/dryer.
Perched high atop the 50-foot sand dune, The Lookout boasts the best views of the harbor and downtown Saugatuck, making its screened-in sleeping porch the most coveted room in the Treetops. With plenty of living space and an eat-in kitchen, this is the perfect cottage for a couple, small group, or family of 3-4.
The Lookout comes with a spectacular location. Perched on top of a 50-foot dune, the complex is positioned directly across the lake from downtown Saugatuck. As the primary means of access to Lake Michigan, the harbor is perpetually full of boats, music, and other fun sights viewable from the cottage porches and firepit. It’s also a short 15 minute dune hike (or 2-minute drive) to award-winning Oval Beach, named in Condé Nast Traveler’s Top 25 Beaches in the World, National Geographic Traveler’s Top Freshwater Beaches in the USA, and MTV’s Top 5 Beaches in the USA.
The Lookout’s spacious, gourmet kitchen includes everything a chef could need: a range, microwave, coffee pot, pots, pans and more. Plus, a four-top dining table adds comfort to your morning cup of joe and locally-purchased pastries.
During holiday celebrations, panoramic firework views are unrivaled, launched mere feet away.
The Lookout sits on the highest point of the Treetops complex with easy access to the shared firepit, outdoor dining area, and professionally maintained hot tub.
The Lookout boasts the best views of the harbor and downtown Saugatuck of all the Treetops cottages, and Erica Sinchak made sure guests could enjoy it.

We enjoyed our stay in this cozy cottage nestled up in the treetops with a great view of the lake. The location was perfect with easy travels to all of the fun activities we had planned. Erica was super responsive anytime we reached out and very kind. We would love to travel back again!
What a beautiful spot! This was the perfect place for our Honeymoon weekend. The hot tub was very clean and ready to go for the weekend. The view from the screen porch was wonderful, and the cabin was so charming. We didn't do a very good job following the directions and parked in the wrong spot/used the wrong stairs initially - be sure to find the gravel road alley past the red cottage and use the stone stairs between Lookout and Dunebuggy!
Saugatuck and Douglas are wonderful small towns with many varied, friendly stores and restaurants! The cottage is in great location to access the mains trips of both towns within minutes, as well as Oval Beach and other water options! The hot tub is well-maintained, communication with the host is friendly and prompt, and your stay will be worth it! The only note is the lake/channel view is across the street, so there are other homes in view as well.A definite worth-while stay!!
I brought my partner here for a surprise birthday weekend and it was perfect! The cabin is so charming and beautiful and really feels special. You can tell the care put into the property and the thoughtfulness of the hosts. The location is a perfect homebase for hiking and exploring the charming surrounding towns while also feeling like you’re in your own private piece of the world. I would absolutely visit again!
A perfectly appointed and magical property that made for the most relaxing and fun weekend you could ask for ! Comfort of home with the forest and view of being abroad !
Beautiful cabin, surrounded by quiet stunning nature. The town of Saugatuck is very charming. One of the very best mom and daughter trips we have shared!
A great cabin to recharge your batteries. We had the whole property to ourselves and really enjoyed the quiet. We were greeted daily by grazing deer and enjoyed listening to all the local birds. Very quick drive into town for groceries and restaurants. Very easy to communicate with the owners with any questions we had. 10/10 recommend.
The place was very clean and well equipped. We stayed after Oct 1 so ferry wasn’t working and had to drive to town. Hot tub was closed but wouldn’t have used. Steps from our parking lot to cottage were rustic and a lot. All of the negatives may have been in description but I didn’t catch. I would still recommend place but just be aware of surroundings. Fire pit area was great and offered nice view of town. Could even hear music from venues in the evening. Overall very nice place.
My mom and I loved our time in this darling cottage overlooking the water. It was a short drive to the shops of Saugatuck and gorgeous Oval Beach. We enjoyed the cozy fire inside as well as the outdoor fire pit...plus the hot tub was an added bonus to take away the fall chill. Erica was super responsive and her place was a perfect home away from home.
We loved this cozy getaway with a great view of the water. It was very close to town, but we could have enjoyed the cottage without even going to town. The amenities were perfect and Erica was wonderful. Very clean. Can't wait to go back.
We stayed here as a mini honeymoon. The property was beautiful, and we felt right at home. Erica was super helpful with any questions we had - the cabin had everything we needed for our two-night stay. We enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit at the property - we also enjoyed massages at the Aveda salon and cruised the river in a retro boat rental. We had a great time and will be back!
The cabin was great. Very clean and super cute. I would suggest that it is better for only 2-3 guests as there is no privacy in the bedroom. The cabins are also super close together so not the best place if you are looking for privacy and quiet, but otherwise we had a great time!
Clean and freshly updated cabin with antique features. Friendly and responsive owner! Made for a relaxing weekend away from the grind of work and city. Great view of downtown Saugatuck, visible from the fire pit. We enjoyed hearing the music across the river!
there are 3 cabins on this property - but we were lucky enough to have the place to ourselves. communication w property manager was super responsive and helpful. place was very clean and large. The bedding was super soft. Loved the outdoor fire pit. what a view at night!

About the host
Hosted by Erica Sinchak
Our family has been visiting the Saugatuck/Douglas, Michigan area most of our life. We hold a million sepia-colored memories in our heads. As Chicagolanders, we escape suburbia for the dunes, beaches, and woodlands of the Lake Michigan shoreline every chance we get.
We enjoy the area so much that I thought others should too. At a time when the town was still quiet and homey, I started on a journey of building true vacation destinations that are unique from anything you would find in suburbia, true cabins that drive relaxation and escape.
With no appetite for owning or managing rundown, churn-n-burn properties, we prefer to focus on high-end vacation homes with incredible amenities. In order to deliver value to our guests, the properties themselves became more than places to stay, they became experiences. Providing an experience is a combination of a unique property, different than anything our guests have at home, quality in-house amenities, unique exterior amenities such as location, and on-property activities such as jacuzzi, pools, and fire features. Finally, the experience is topped off with special treatment and high-attention from the management company (quite literally, us).
Someone once told me, “After kids, you don’t go on vacation. You visit places.” I didn’t want that for Lakewood Lux. I wanted to make each property family-friendly with the comforts of home. We splurge on high-end items like kitchen appliances, pots and pans, serveware, linens and towels to ensure a guest experience that is like or better than home. Then, we make sure all the amenities are maintained by professionals. Folks work hard to earn their vacations, and I wanted to ensure their visits were pleasantly clean, comfortable, and fun, because that’s what I would want.
Revel in The Lux.
