Starry Night cottage was in a nice quiet neighborhood, but with easy access to the Saugatuck downtown offerings and the beaches. Traveling with our 2 dogs, we really appreciated the fenced backyard and screened- in back patio! Very comfortable, and the owners were super - responsive!

What a lovely, quiet location within walking distance (aprox 10 minutes at kiddo speed) to downtown Saugatuck! The place is lovely and was larger than expected with a modern kitchen. Loved sitting on the screened in porch in the evenings!

Love the new updates

This was our 3rd stay at Starry nights cottage, and the cleaniness and supplies were superb as usual. Love the updated shower this trip, plus the addition of the king bed. The location and screened porch are favorite features for us also.

Beautiful property, close enough to walk to downtown. We really enjoyed the screened porch. The front door lock was a bit temperamental and tricky to figure out but we got it eventually.

Great place.

I would recommend Starry Night Cottage to anyone wanting a cute clean place to stay. We walked to town a few times and drove on the day it was really hot. We played yard games, barbecued and sat in the screened in porch alot! We would definitely go back in a minute, enjoyed our time there!
