It was expensive for the room we stayed in

It was very clean and close to town. You do have to take a ferry over to town though. It’s absolutely beautiful in Saugatuck Michigan.

Lovely spot right on water but just didn’t check all the boxes. Expected it to be comparable to the room rate but it wasn’t. Bed, linens and towels were nice.

The condo was fine, the parking was impossible. Telling us each unit would get a spot is so wrong. The first night we had to park illegally to get anywhere near the units, and the second night we were only left 1/2 of a space due to a Pickup taking up 1 1/2 spaces, and were got a threatening note suggesting towing early in the morning. Luckily, we left early. But worrying every time we went out if there would be a spot when we returned was not fun. Some residents scored pink “tickets” to use, saying they got them when they checked in. We were not told to physically check in…just given the key code. And the front door key required LOTS of patience to operate ONLY every time we left or returned. Plus, 8 throw pillows is too many to constantly move and juggle for comfort!

Saugatuck getaway weekend

The unit was nicely furnished, clean and in a great location. We loved being able to walk to the ferry to cross the river. Parking in Saugatuck can be a challenge so not taking the car was great. Sitting outside and watching the boats go by was relaxing. I do have to mention though, as renters we are told quiet hours are from 10pm-8am. Others in the complex were not so adherent to those rules. People in the unit next door were yelling and causing a disturbance until well past 3am. Overall, it was a nice visit except for Friday night when the incident above occured.

Fine, but two serious issues

Small (that's OK as long as there are only two of you), mostly clean & modern, but two serious issues. 1. No WIFI since the documentation in the property matched none of the networks. Multiple resets of the router, multiple devices, no go. 2. Key was bent that made locking/unlocking a nightmare. + Local text number never responded. + Phoned agency ans was told that they already knew about the key problem and would fix it - also never happened As long as you don't need WIFI, are willing to spend 5-10 mins every time you want to unlock/lock the door, and there are only 2 people, then this place is in a good location, for a good price, and is clean and tidy.

Wide hallway with great views.

Cons Let’s start with the cons bc I think they balance out with pros. So the place is very small. We joked it was wide hallway with a kitchenette at one end and a bed at the other. And there’s a lot of furniture in it. It feels size wise like a hotel room. Probably best for two ppl and a very small child, if that. We had to contact the owners a few times, as the mini fridge freezer was not keeping anything frozen, no ice tray and the remote was lacking batteries. They promptly dropped off an ice tray which was helpful. No batteries though. Oh and the walls seem thin, as we heard everything unless the air conditioner was on which was as loud as an industrial fan. No lie. But it kept going in with the expectation of the room cool. The pros- of course the view was great being on the River watching the boats each day was a lot of fun. Enjoying meals and relaxing on the patio was great. The place was clean. Great towels and shower. The bed was about a letter grade B. It was a bit soft in the middle but we have slept on worse. We fixed it with pillows and were great. Parking was great. Location perfect. We would probably rent again but going into it we would keep our expectations to that of a small space.

Easy riverside stay

What a great area and suitable apartment for a get away. Minutes from the beach, totally walkable, and other nearby facilities and attractions. Within a few minutes drive (when the ferry is not in operation) of the very pleasant village that is Saugatuck. Great stay

So much for a quiet getaway from the kids!

The room itself is great, small, good lighting, clean and everything you would need for 2 people for a wknd. The heat/AC unit was scuzzy and would run when it wanted and wouldnt stay on continuously which would had helped for the obnoxious neighbors. First night had quite the amout of loud people out on back deck for a little bit of time then went quiet. But the second night(sat) didnt get going till right at midnight, complete with 90s dance hits/karaoke and stomping that felt like it was coming thru the paper thin walls, actually called the police twice on them, wasnt like anything we have ever experienced anywhere, and totally not expected for Saugatuck. Was a rough night beofre checkout to say the least, but i guess thats the chance one takes with little rooms very close like that. Just very inconsiderate young people, not even sure where they parked, cause thats a whole other nightmare about this place...
