Wonderful Weekend
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this stunning property and were thoroughly impressed by every aspect of our experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the serene atmosphere and immaculate surroundings. The property boasts a beautiful, clean interior that instantly felt like home away from home. The spacious kitchen was a delight, equipped with all the amenities one could need, making meal preparation a breeze. The dining area was perfect for gathering with family and friends, offering ample space for everyone to relax and enjoy meals together. One of the highlights of our stay was undoubtedly the outdoor fireplace. It provided the perfect backdrop for a cozy evening sharing stories and creating lasting memories. Communication with the host was seamless throughout the process. Their attentiveness and dedication to ensuring our comfort did not go unnoticed and added an extra layer of hospitality to our stay. In summary, this property exceeded our expectations in every way possible. Its combination of modern comforts, tranquil surroundings, and attentive host make it a standout choice for anyone looking for a memorable getaway. We cannot recommend it highly enough and look forward to returning in the future. Thank you for providing such a wonderful retreat!

Good Family Time
I’ll start this review with how nervous I was to cook and prepare large meals outside of my home. Alex’s house was a dream! Everything I needed or Could have needed was in the kitchen. The most well stocked rental I have ever been in. Being able to cook and prepare while my family was in the lovely dining room or living room was great( loved the floor plan). The teens enjoyed the spacious basement and the ping pong table was a massive hit.! We had a fabulous vacation and would rent the modern farmhouse again for sure!

Just the best!
This house had it all. Plenty of paper towels, toilet paper, linens, and they even provided plastic wrap and Ziploc bags, kids toys and games… The list goes on. It is so rare to find a Vrbo that has so many amenities included. There was no soap in the shower, but everything else was just amazing. An absolutely great house. Very close to town with plenty of sleeping options. We would love to come back.

Wonderful Home and Location
My family of 15 including children and grandchildren enjoyed staying in this wonderful home. It was perfect for our entire family and plenty large to spread out especially for the grandkids in the basement. The location couldn't be better. Great host. Looking forward to another trip to Saugatuck.

About the host

Hosted by Saugatuck Modern Farmhouse OwnerRez Inquiry email

Host profile image
We are a family of five, with three kids aged 8 to 13. We live in in Chicago, and we have been coming to Saugatuck/Douglas multiple times a year since 2014. SAUGATUCK MODERN FARMHOUSE was purchased as our second home, and we still use it as such. We enjoyed the area and the hosting experience and recently decided to buy an additional home, DOUGLAS MODERN VILLA. Our parents like to come along and also we like to spend time with other families - these houses are a great way to spend time with multi-generational families, groups of friends, or a couples getaway. We really enjoy what Saugatuck can offer year-around. In the summer, our favorites activities are Oval Beach, walking around downtown, getting coffee at Uncommon Grounds, ice cream at Kilwin’s, and food from Phil’s, Wicks Park, and Everyday People Cafe. In the winter we tend to stay in more, cook big family meals, still enjoy the downtown areas and the many businesses that stay open year around for the locals.
On his free time, Alex is an aspiring home chef, and as a result, the kitchens are equipped with everything you would need to put together a great meal. From grilling, sous vide, cast iron and dutch ovens, baking pans, food processors, blenders your needs should be covered. Also there is sufficient dishware, silverware and serving dishes to put a meal together for the full capacity of the house with room to spare.

Why they chose this property

One of the main questions we had was if we wanted to be in town or on the beach. When we came to Saugatuck, we found that we would go to the beach 3-5 times a week, depending on weather, but we would come into town multiple times a day, so the decision was easy. The property is in a great location - quiet neighborhood yet a short walk to town. Also we wanted a place that could fit 2-3 families with multiple kids each, plus one or two sets of parents, or a nanny.

What makes this property unique

SAUGATUCK MODERN FARMHOUSE features 4,500 SF, and accommodates several groups and allows privacy as well as shared space. It is much newer than the vast majority of homes available in Saugatuck; and it is configured with multiple private spaces / desks and premium internet service for those folks that can't stay unplugged from work for too long.
