The three cottages were perfect for our family gathering of four nights. The large cottage was just right for two of our families and the kitchen and dining area accommodated all if us. Kitchen utensils etc. made meal prep efficient. We loved being able to gather around the fire pit in the evening. Our grandkids loved playing in the back yard. The sidewalks made it easy to go between cottages. Parking was very convenient. The convenience of a supermarket ,coffee shop and root beer barrel was appreciated.
Great place for family. Deck and outdoor space for kids and adults to gather. Cabins well stocked. Close to beach and within walking distance to store, coffee, ice cream!!
We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay there again! Everything was very clean and had everything you needed! Angie was very nice and accommodating! Thank you!
It was a great place for our family. Having 3 cottages provided some privacy and space. The large cottage was perfect for all gathering to eat, play games, roast hot dogs and make some mores. Location was perfect.
This was the perfect place for our little family and friends getaway! It was clean, delightful comfortable, and a prime location. Angie was easy to communicate with and instructions were clear. We’ll definitely re-book when we can!
Great property!
Great accommodations!
Great hosts!
Second year with my family of multiple generations!
Hoping we can make it a third next year!
Thanks Angie!
The cottages were great for the multiple families in our group. We appreciated the central location to beaches and restaurants. Additional places for luggage and bathroom bags would have been a better option than the floor.
Enjoyed our stay very much! The indoor and outdoor space makes having a big group a breeze! We enjoyed Oval Beach and a pontoon trip on Douglas Lake. Angie was easy to communicate with and a wonderful host! Thanks for a wonderful stay and providing a backdrop to our reunion with great friend!
Main cottage housed my oldest son's wife and family of 4, ages 8,6,3.2 comfortably upstairs, my wife and I in the comfortable king room downstairs, and my 26 year old son in a separate room with his own shower - plenty of space.
The middle cottage was perfect for my daughter and her husband, and their three children ages 4, 2, and 4 months. The smallest cottage held my other son, his wife and daughter of 2 very very well. Everyone had their own space and we gathered in the yard for evening meals and family fires.
Great place, very responsive hosts and wonderful location.
Highly recommend it!
I was first attracted to this property on VRBO thanks to it not having a week-long rental requirement. Our family of 20 would have no way to coordinate that. We stayed Wednesday to Sunday. The property is gorgeous, clean and offers convenient access to nearby attractions. The main house kitchen is spacious enough to prepare and serve large meals. Each family enjoyed privacy in their own space. Loved the outdoor fire pit and large front yard area for the kids to play. The Saugatuck/Douglas/Holland offers so many attractions: history, go karts, the Art Barn, the beach and the adorable downtown area with fabulous bars, restaurants and shops. Highly recommend this home! Thank you for your hospitality!
The location could not be more perfect. You can walk to coffee, a grocery store, and downtown Douglas with all its shops, restaurants, and library. Lake Michigan is within biking or driving distance. The three cottages are ideal for large families with those who need their own space. The yard is large and perfect for lawn games, grilling out, and having a campfire. The only negative our group could identify is the internet is very bad, which made streaming almost impossible - we couldn’t even use streamers on the tvs provided in the cottages. Two members of our group had to do some work while on vacation and we’re unable to get strong enough internet to do it at the cottages so they walked to the library which unfortunately doesn’t open until 10am. We found workarounds, but better internet really would have made some things easier for our group. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back again!

Thank you for letting us know about the fun your family had at our cottages. It’s wonderful that everyone was able to enjoy our unique set up for larger groups. Your internet issue could have been resolved had we been notified. More than half of your very detailed review of our property is your extreme disappointment over the internet connection. I clearly state in every cottage to please contact me for any reason at all. My personal cell phone number is the first thing that is posted on each fridge. My sign off to you each time was “Please let me know if there is anything at all that you may need”. I never once received a message from anyone in your large group about your issue.
We stayed in Douglas as part of a family trip and surprise for my sister's 50th birthday. The cottages were lovely - clean, well stocked, and ready for our group. The cottages were adorable - very lakeside preppy. We loved using the grills, picnic table, and fire pits. It really was perfect for our family trip.
Convenient location and plenty of private parking.
3 generations used this property for a family vacation. All ages really enjoyed it and the large backyard was great for all the sports they wanted to play. The picnic tables placed in the shade were great for our suppers each evening. And of course s’mores by the campfire on the last night. It is close to beaches and shopping.
Great location, close to shops, beaches, and walking distance to coffee shop and root beer stand. Great quick response from owner regarding questions! Excellent for multi family get together with young children.
Our stay at Willow Tree was absolutely everything we could have imagined!! The cottages are each quaint and accommodating with everything you need for a relaxed stress free time. The yard was perfect for all and we especially enjoyed the nighttime fire pit. Added note……the firewood was provided!!!!! Bonus!
Touring downtown Douglas and Saugatuck, we absorbed the arts and appreciated the small town vibe. This is a place to revisit, for sure. Thank you!
We were in town for the weekend to attend a wedding. This place is very convenient. It was clean, well stocked and quite charming. It allowed the 14 of us to stay very comfortably. the backyard is great as a gathering place for the entire group at the nd of the day. Angie, the owner, was very responsive to all inquires and went out of the way to ensure we were accommodated. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting the Douglass/Saugatuck area.
Had my kids and grandkids here for vacation. A really nice place to stay and relax. We did shopping, walking, jet skiing, sailing and relaxing. The only downside we saw was the wi-fi connection which was very sketchy…
This was the PERFECT place for our family's reunion. It was so clean, tons of space, beds and bathrooms for everyone; the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to make meals for your family (pots, pans, etc.) and there were plenty of beds and linens/towels for everyone. The outside area is also very nice with lots of grills and a super great fire pit for relaxing. It's also incredibly close to Saugatuck and was very easy to get to everything.
Definitely recommend this spot if you're staying in the Douglas/Saugatuck area.
The property is adorable. It's only short comings were no place to unpack. There were no drawers or shelves to put things on and few hangers to hang.
The scatter rugs around were not good for our group. My husband is 80 and doesn't always pick up his feet therefore bunching up the rugs.
We enjoyed bon fires on two nights and eating out on the deck.
We had a wonderful time.

We have been all of the United States (including Hawaii) Multiple islands of the Caribbean, etc.
Why they chose this property
We happened upon Willow Tree Cottages, a small cottage resort. The location is A++!!!! We are in the middle of the action in all aspects! From Willow Tree Cottage you can walk to the beach, Downtown Douglas, Downtown Saugatuck, restaurants, the main grocery store, the chain ferry, etc. Lafontsee Galleries across the street. Kirby Wine Bar one block away. Cute little beach shop (bike rentals/Beach rentals) across the street. . Everything is convenient about our location!
What makes this property unique
You will fall in love with the 'quaintness' of Willow Tree Cottages! The 3 cottages are in a great setting, a nice big yard to play yard games, relax and read or grill out and have fun!
