  • Lovely get away from the city, peaceful, serene, and tucked into the woods. We had a group of girls and with the size and layout of the place not to mention the hot tub on the back deck! We never had to be on top of each other. It’s a short drive out of the city. Recharge!

  • We weren't actually sure of what to expect; the exterior and promotional interior shots were charming, but when we walked in the door, the place really knocked our socks off!! The layout was really spacious; the beds comfortable, the fireplace and hot tub easy to use and lovely amenities, and the proximity and ease to Saugatauk were all as advertised. There was even a large flat screen TV which my husband, the news junkie, loved. There were places to walk, including a path by the lake, and you haven't lived till you use a hot tub in the cold. Super fun! We loved our stay in every way. Highest recommendation!!!

  • I spent a lovely winter weekend at this beautiful log home. The roaring fire, peaceful views out every window, the amazing hot tub...it was magic and restorative. The best thing? The quiet. If you're looking for a rustic-without-roughing-it getaway, this is the place for you. The beds are comfy, the kitchen is top notch, and your every need has been anticipated by the owners, from wine glasses to a washer/dryer. You're in a cabin made of wood, where you sleep in a bed crafted of logs -- it's like being in the woods you see out every window, yet you're in the lap of luxury. I highly recommend this woodland nirvana.

    The perfect Labor Day get-away! This home is fabulous, and the perfect retreat for five maxed out worker bees from the city! We loved every minute of being here and are already planning our next trip back to Saugatuck and Roadside Marker!

    My band and I performed a concert at the Saugautuck Center for the Arts on May 2nd, then came to this cabin to stay. Absolutely an incredible topper to an already perfect night. We had a full house, great and amazing audience and the weather rocked - sun even came out! This cabin is beautiful, homey, clean and special! Thank you - we loved it!

    Thank you for such a wonderful place to stay! We all love this cabin on Lilypad Lane - the kids adore the loft and "log cabin" feel, as well as the pool and hot tub. We also really like the boardwalk to the dock and caught a fish ourselves too! It is nice and private here, which the adults enjoy. Saugatuck, Holland and Douglas are all great towns for shipping and eating...especially the ice cream. We visited both Oval Beach and Saugatuck Dunes - loved the walk through the woods to get to the Dunes. Hope to be back next summer!

    My husband could not have chosen a better vacation home for our family and friends to enjoy. Our boys thought the cabin was the "coolest" place they have ever stayed. We so enjoyed the pool as it was very hot this week. We also loved the hot tub - especially after climbing Mt. Baldhead! The kids loved the nightly fires, smores and the big TV in the loft. We also made several visits to the dock where we found the fishing was amazing! We caught so many fish we lost count. Nothing beats the priceless look on our nine-year-olds face when he caught his first big fish - a 3lb catfish. Not only did we enjoy the cabin, we loved Saugatuck too! The food was amazing as well as the shopping. The Dune Rides and the Keetawin ship tour were favorites.

    We had a good time on vacation; would have been great if the weather had been a bit better. The cloudy, rainy days were made enjoyable by the comfortable house - two jigsaw puzzles in a week passed the hours - Enjoyed the hot tub immensely. Look forward to returning in the future.
