About this property

NEW! Charming Pet Friendly Modern Cottage in the Historic District of Saugatuck!

When location is key... this charming home on Butler Street, nestled in Saugatuck's historic district, offers the best of both convenience and ambiance. Within walking distance to parks, shopping, a range of dining options, and the river, you'll find everything Saugatuck has to offer just a short stroll away. The Chain Ferry and the river are only minutes away, and you're perfectly positioned for day trips to nearby towns like Fennville, Grand Haven, South Haven, Holland, Douglas, and Zeeland. Oval Beach and Lake Michigan’s Douglas Beach are also close by.

Built in 1920 and cherished by the same family for over 60 years, this house was beautifully reimagined by its new owners in 2023. The home offers 3 inviting bedrooms, ideal for a tranquil retreat, and 3.5 bathrooms to ensure everyone’s comfort.

On the main level, you'll find a queen-size bedroom, a full bathroom with heated floors and a shower, a convenient half-bathroom, and an open-concept living area. The fully equipped kitchen, dining room, and living room create a welcoming space for indoor dining and socializing. The dining table seats six, and the kitchen island accommodates four. The kitchen is well-appointed for cooking and crafting cocktails, while the spacious living area and fireplace provide a cozy spot for relaxation on chilly days.

Upstairs, the private master suite boasts a king-size bed, a walk-in closet, and a luxurious primary bath with heated floors, a walk-in shower, and a freestanding tub. Another queen-size bedroom and a full bathroom with heated floors and a shower/tub combination are also on this level. The upper floor also features a laundry room and an office equipped with a desk, monitor, and a twin bed with a trundle for added flexibility.

The covered front porch is ideal for enjoying warm summer evenings, while the fenced-in backyard garden offers a lush retreat with greenery and blooming plants. Outdoor dining on the patio, relaxing on the lawn, or gathering around the gas fire pit under the stars will surely make for memorable experiences.

Come stay with us and create wonderful memories in this perfect Saugatuck escape.

Butler Manor is a wonderful place to stay while visiting Saugatuck and surrounding areas. It was exactly as described. Every detail was thought through. The house and yard are beyond charming. It was such a pleasant stay in a very convenient location. You can walk everwhere! We loved our brunch/lunch at Lady Bird. We will definitely be back and hope to stay at Bulter Manor again.

This house is wonderful. It is in a great location, well stocked, clean and charming. We rented it to use as extra space for a family reunion in Holland and our only regret is not being able to spend more time at the house. The front porch is a great place to relax, and the firepit would be fun to gather around with family and friends. We would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful stay in this recently renovated property. We found it as described in the listing or better. Excellent location within an easy 10 minute walk to shops and restaurants. It was quiet, with lots of creature comforts. The kitchen was well-stocked, the WiFi was excellent, and for those that needed to work a bit, the smaller bedroom had a nice desk with large monitors. The front porch was perfect for gathering with coffee in the morning and drinks in the late afternoon. Communication with the hosts was prompt and thorough. I will stay here again.

2 adults, 2 seniors, a 17 and 6 year old stayed for 3 nights over the 4th of July weekend. The house was PERFECT in terms of location (just a few blocks from downtown and the water), cleanliness, functionality, spaciousness, and overall charm. Great beds, shower pressure, AC, and fire pit! The office even had a pull out trundle bed for my 6 year old. Just a wonderful experience. Thank you!
