This house delivers what it promised and so much more! A family group stayed here for a near-by wedding in Holland. Kids, elderly and young adults. It met ALL of our needs. The decor and amenities are luxurious. We are talking about a winter stay in the future. Thank you for hosting us in your beautiful home!

12/10 rating! Absolutely loved this house! It was so perfect for our girls getaway weekend. The house was stunning and only a few minutes from downtown. The house was clean and fully stocked with all the essentials. Everything was thoughtfully planned out in this home. We can’t wait for next year to book it again!

We had a wonderful stay at The Gambrel in Sagatuck, MI! It was perfect for our family getaway with kids-plenty of space, comfortable, and beautifully set up for relaxation. The fall weather made the whole experience even more special; the colorful leaves created the most stunning backdrop right outside our windows.The hot tub and sauna were absolutely deluxe and a huge hit with everyone. The home was clean, inviting, and had everything we needed for a cozy, memorable weekend.We would absolutely recommend this property and look forward to staying here again

I stayed at the Grambel house for my 60th birthday with 6 of my friends and it was absolutely wonderful!! We all agreed that it was the most impeccable property we had ever stayed at and we all travel quite a bit and have stayed in many rental properties! The house was exactly as pictured on the website; it was spotless and so well appointed! Michelle made sure everything was perfect and was so responsive throughout our stay. She gave us great recommendations for places to eat in town, activities and put us in touch with a private chef and someone to do a private sound therapy session! The house is filled with so many fun things to do you really never have to leave though. The game room is so cute and loaded with fun things to do! The kitchen has everything you could possibly need and all of the drawers are even labeled with pictures so you don’t have to open every drawer or cabinet to find what you’re looking for! The hot tub and sauna are great and very easy to use and the grounds are beautiful!! The house is only a short 5-10 minute drive to town so close enough but still feels like you’re miles away from anything because it’s quiet and in a private lot surrounded by trees and on a ravine. Do not hesitate for a moment to rent this property!!!

Thank you so much for your incredibly thoughtful review! It was such a pleasure hosting you and your friends as you celebrated your 60th birthday at Black Barn Ridge. Knowing that your group felt so well cared for—and that The Gambrel was one of the most memorable homes you've stayed in—truly means the world to us. I'm so glad you enjoyed everything from the hot tub, sauna, and game room to the private chef and sound therapy experience. We love helping guests create stays that are as relaxing, fun, or celebratory as they'd like, and it makes us so happy to hear those special touches helped make your birthday unforgettable. Thank you again for choosing to celebrate such a meaningful milestone with us. We would be honored to welcome you back to Black Barn Ridge for another getaway in the future!

Absolutely amazing property with great amenities! Seamless from start to finish, our communication with the host and the check in process was so easy. The hot tub and game room were a big hit with our kids and the outdoor space and giant family room/kitchen allowed us to gather with stunning views of the backyard. We will certainly be back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The home was very spacious while still offering plenty of privacy, making it a comfortable place to relax and unwind. It was exceptionally well-equipped with everything needed for cooking, baking, and serving meals, which made it feel more like a home than a typical rental.The location was another big plus—close enough to be just a short 10-minute drive from town, yet far enough away to provide a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of busy Saugatuck.The property was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully furnished. In fact, my wife has already asked if we can book the same property again for a future visit, which is probably the highest compliment we can give. We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear you felt at home and enjoyed both the peaceful setting and the convenience of being just minutes from downtown Saugatuck. It means so much to know the home had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. Please tell your wife we'd be honored to welcome you both back to Black Barn Ridge for another getaway. We look forward to hosting you again!
