Silverberry Acres: Spacious Wooded Retreat w/ Hot Tub and Fire Pit, Pet-Friendly
Silverberry Acres
Escape to Silverberry Acres, a beautiful home tucked into a peaceful wooded setting just 2 miles from downtown Saugatuck. This serene retreat offers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience, with easy access to charming shops, restaurants, galleries, live theater, and the stunning beaches of Lake Michigan, including Oval Beach and Saugatuck Dunes State Park, both less than a 10-minute drive away.
The outdoor space is a true highlight of this home. Step onto the expansive deck and sink into one of the comfortable patio chairs while sipping your morning coffee. A picnic table invites relaxed outdoor meals, where the fresh woodland air enhances every bite. Fire up the grill just off the deck to cook a backyard feast for family or friends. After a long day of exploring, unwind in the hot tub as the warm jets soothe your muscles and the stars twinkle overhead. A short path through the woods leads to a secluded fire pit, perfect for gathering under the night sky to toast s'mores or share stories around the glowing flames. The large property provides plenty of room for yard games, wandering through the trees, or simply soaking in the serene surroundings.
The main level of the home is designed for connection and comfort. A bright, open living area flows seamlessly into a casual dining space with sliding doors leading to the deck, while the formal dining room features a large farmhouse table ideal for shared meals. The fully equipped kitchen, complete with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and every tool needed for a feast, makes cooking a joy. A cozy den with twin beds and a convenient half bath offers flexible space for sleeping or quiet retreats.
Upstairs, four inviting bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide plenty of private space for everyone, along with a laundry room for added convenience. The master suite is a true sanctuary, with a soaking tub, separate shower, walk-in closet, and private toilet room, offering the ultimate spot to unwind after a day of adventuring.
The lower level expands the home's living space with a second living area, a game table, a sofa sleeper, and a TV, perfect for movie nights, game nights, or extra sleeping space for guests. This area provides a relaxed spot for entertainment or lounging away from the main gathering areas.
Silverberry Acres is designed to make every moment unforgettable. From the peaceful woodland setting and vibrant outdoor spaces to the hot tub and grill on the deck, the secluded fire pit in the woods, and the proximity to beaches and downtown attractions, this home is ideal for large families, groups of friends, or anyone seeking a luxurious, nature-filled escape just minutes from the heart of Saugatuck.

Thank you for staying at Silverberry Acres and for taking the time to share your feedback. We're so glad you found the home clean and that you had a memorable time with your family. The homeowner is always open to making improvements, and we’d love to hear more about what you felt needed attention so we can continue to enhance the guest experience. Our team is available around the clock and always happy to help before, during, and after a stay.
We booked this house for my sister’s bachelorette party and it was the perfect house for us! Great location, close to downtown and the beach! And the house was clean and spacious, with a beautiful lot surrounded by trees!
Would give 5 stars all around the board but the place advertised if you left anything they would ship back at your expense. And that did not happen. Whoever cleans the place if they've already thrown your stuff away or chooses to keep it will just say that they couldn't find anything. Even if you tell them exactly which room it was in.
Otherwise it was a relaxing quiet stay. Does have all your base needs and our party enjoyed themselves. Just triple check all your rooms and make sure you don't leave anything and you'll be grand. 😂

First Bad VRBO Experience
My media club selected the property in Douglas, Michigan for our annual retreat. The property was selected because of the location and amenities. We have been visiting the area for more than thirty years and for the first time experienced accommodations that were much less than expected.
While the location and the size of the property were excellent, the house itself was in disrepair and not prepared for visitors. The furniture and carpet were dirty, the towels seemed thread bare, the hot tub and fire pit area appeared to not have been attended to in a long time.
The most egregious thing about the property was that the furnace did not work. The management company sent out a repair person who reported that the furnace could not be fixed, during our stay, due to the inability for them to obtain a part. Subsequently, we were provided with space heaters by the the management company. While the temperature was not freezing, it was, at times, uncomfortable in the house.
I think it is essential for property owners to inspect their homes to ascertain what needs to be addressed before offering them was viable rental properties. In this instance, it appears as though this was not done.

Good Afternoon, Dwayne,
Thank you for reaching out to share your feedback about your October 3-6 stay at Silverberry Acres. While we always appreciate hearing from our guests, we were surprised to receive your message nearly two months after your departure.
Our team contacted you the day after your arrival to ensure everything was going smoothly. When you mentioned the issue with the heat, we responded promptly, offering to send a professional right away. After further communication, an HVAC technician was on-site the same day. While they were unable to secure the necessary part during your stay, we immediately provided space heaters to ensure the home remained comfortable.
We also followed up by call and text to ensure everything met your needs, but unfortunately, we did not hear back from you.
We are disappointed to learn now that there were additional concerns during your stay. Our team is available 24/7, and it’s always our goal to address issues promptly and ensure our guests have a pleasant experience. If we had been made aware of these additional concerns, or your desire to move to a different property, during your visit, we would have been happy to take immediate steps to address these items.
While unforeseen maintenance issues can arise, we do our best to respond promptly, as we did in this case. We value your loyalty and are saddened to hear your expectations were not met on this occasion. Your feedback will be shared with the team and the property owner to ensure continued improvements. Please feel free to reach out directly to our office if you would like to discuss this further.
