Host was both responsive and accommodating, we reserved late and still got in EARLY! House was in amazing shape and perfect accommodations for our group! Everything was top-notch and host was awesome!
We had a fantastic stay at this Douglas home! The space is spacious, comfortable, newly renovated, and extremely clean. The kitchen is large and very well equipped, the bathrooms are beautiful, and the beds were super comfortable. We also loved the thick walls between bedrooms, which made it very quiet and private.The location is ideal. It’s just a 5-minute drive to downtown Saugatuck, close to the lake, and an easy walk or short drive to Douglas Beach. We enjoyed checking out local spots like Noble Twist for great pizza and Wally’s for cozy local bar vibes and live music.Even though we visited during the off-season, it was a lovely winter getaway, and we can only imagine how amazing it would be in the summer. Bonus points for being dog-friendly with a fenced-in backyard, which made traveling with a pup easy.Highly recommend! We would absolutely stay here again!
