We have been coming to the Saugatuck area for many years and enjoy every moment we are there
Why the Owner Chose Saugatuck
We love the location, the house is close enough to town that you can walk to everything that Saugatuck offers. Sitting up on the Hill, keeps the noise and the traffic of town away.
The Unique Benefits of this House
We love spending time on the screened in porch and lounging on the side deck. The house is large enough that you can have different generations and every group has a place to hang out.
