What Our Guests Are Saying

This place could be a real gem with the right cleaning crew and manager. Phil seemed nice enough, but had excuses for why the place was dirty and why he was stressed due to problems at another property. Here is the list of issues: Grill was dirty, 1 bathroom hair and gunk on the base of shower, bathroom shampoo holder fell and spilled all over floor, freezer leaked, no ice for the entirety of our stay cobwebs on kitchen ceiling, and several other things. The cleaners need to pay more attention to details. They need to lift the rugs to clean under them--- that was gross! On the Good side--- Great Location, nice condo if kept up properly, right on the water by the boats! We feel that we deserve a partial refund for all of the issues we contacted Phil about and didn't get repaired, replaced or just didn't show up with the ice trays. We ended up having a wonderful time, but had to ignore many things. 20% refund, perhaps?

Great getaway spot right on the water! Had all the amenities we needed and close to all local Saugatuck and Douglas restaurants and attractions.

A beautiful stay in a peaceful location. Comfortable beds, great showers, well stocked kitchen. The patio was so comfortable to watch the activities on the water. Phil was highly responsive and proactive. Would recommend.

Beautiful unit in an even more beautiful location! Loved slow mornings and evenings right on the water. Unit was fully stocked. Canβt wait to come back!

Lovely condo to relax, unwind, and feel at peace at. The place was decorated like home, cozy, cute, comfortable, and clean. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything I needed! Loved the spice cabinet! The back porch furniture was soft and comfortable to sit on for hours with my feet up and relaxing with a book while watching the boats and wild life on the channel. Super quiet environment and I felt like I had the whole outside to myself! Loved it and would come back any time! Take a short drive over to Douglas Beach for beautiful homes and spectacular sunsets! Oval Beach and Saugatuck are minutes away and the location is perfect for staying out of the crazy traffic in Saugatuck and just off the beaten path. Safe and quiet surroundings with deer!

This condo was the perfect, homey, quiet stay for our girls weekend. Our favorite feature was being able to unwind and play the many games and doing the puzzles the host provided on the covered patio overlooking the waterfront. The entire unit was very clean. The bathrooms and kitchen were fully stocked with all of the appliances and amenities needed for us to be comfortable. It's a short walk to a great coffee shop and the root beer barrel. Downtown Douglas and Saugatuck were both easily accessible. We were able to utilize a cheap, reliable shuttle to spend an evening in downtown Saugatuck. Phil was very communicative as a host. He was proactive and clear with check-in and check-out instructions and responsive to questions. Would highly recommend this unit to others.
