What a beautiful place to stay! It was a gorgeous little hideaway on the river with plenty of places to walk and enjoy the beautiful scenery. We made use of the firewood and had a nice fire; it was so nice that it was provided. We would definitely stay here again!

My little pup and I had a great weekend! So clean, great amenities, the creek is beautiful, and the firewood is awesome! Getting there was easy and there is a sign towards glamping.

Everything was really great! Wood was damp from rain when we got there, took a little bit to get a fire going. It was just what I needed to relax & reset! 😊

We had a wonderful stay. The accomodations were lovely. It was such a convenient location for our Saugatuck trip. We'd absolutely stay there again and recommend it to anyone. It was very clean and there were a lot of sweet, thoughtful touches. It was just as cute and magical-looking in person as it appeared on VRBO.Side notes:- There is no bathroom building -- just a couple of outhouses, but they were very clean and conveniently-located. But plan accordingly for brushing your teeth.- Our only complaint (which we knew going in) was the lack of electricity -- not even a post nearby to plug an extension cord into like at most campgrounds. Both of the people I was staying with are hard-of-hearing and require hearing implements that need to charge overnight, and we all heavily rely on our phones for navigating in an unfamiliar area and communicating since we were in separate vehicles. We had to think of a lot of workarounds to charge our various devices.

Thank you for the excellent review! It was a pleasure hosting you and we do hope to have the opportunity to host you and your friends in the future. Unfortunely, there will never be elec at our site due to local municipal restrictions that apply to this natural property. It is definately a popular option to many guests in the area who are looking to escape to nature for a day or two.

It was a secluded, private spot. The host provided wood, that they kept covered from the rain so we could have a fire when the rain stopped. The port a pottys were kept clean and were close to the tent. Fishing access was directly in front of our tent. They provided sheets, blankets and airmatresses that were already set up. Walking distance to the fifty seventh street bridge. There is a train track beside the area but we only heard 2 train go by the whole time we were there. It is only 15 minutes away to Saugatuck state park, which is what we were in town for. I would highly recommend. It is an affordable, convenient place to stay.
