Rachel. Thank you so much did your great review. I’m always looking for ways to improve. And if there’s anything you can think of, please let me know. And I hope you will return! Andrea Crossman
The host Andrea was super easy to work with, very accommodating and hospitable!! I had my elopement here in January, and stayed the weekend afterwards for a mini honeymoon! it was cozy and warm despite the mini blizzard. We even used the hot tub and it was relaxing even in negative degrees. Will definitely be looking forward to booking again in the future during the summer! Andrea was a breeze and made our stay very easy and fun.

Glad you had a great time despite the weather. And enjoyed your elopement. Despite the blizzard.
Great home for our extended family gathering. Large rooms for gaming, dining and relaxing. Great views of Lake Michigan from every room and easy access to the beach for a bonfire, swim or walk.
We enjoyed an exceptional Christmas stay with our family, including adult children and young grandchildren. The host was responsive and welcoming, the home was very clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The breathtaking winter views of Lake Michigan created a peaceful and memorable backdrop for our time together.

Thank you, Karen, for your visit and especially taking the time for a great review and also reaching out separately to thank me.
The view is unique, encompassing an unobstructed 180 degrees of Lake Michigan and vast conservation land. The home’s design is meant to resemble a ship and you feel you’re onboard a luxury vessel. Perfect for family reunions, with room for the grandkids as well as lots of sibs. Plenty of activities to choose from.

Thank you for the very nice review s d for being a great guest. We hope you are able to come celebrate again in the coming months or years.
Thank you for staying with us. And thank you for taking the time for a review. We sincerely hope you will find another special occasion to return. Andrea Crossman
Beautiful one of a kind property. The location was amazingly special. Once we got there we never left the property. The beautiful little town of Saugatuck was very close by but the house and property were so amazing we just couldn’t leave. Everything we needed was right there. The house was extremely clean and comfortable. The view was like no other. We could’ve sat on the beach all day long and watched the waves and the boats come and go. We will definitely be back for an even longer stay next time!
Andrea's property is gorgeous, the pictures don't do it justice. Ed the handyman gave us a tour when we got there, which was super appreciated. One of the best places I've stayed!
Andrea, the host, was very quick in answering any questions. Being right on the beach was excellent. We were a party of 8 adults and 6 children under 10. As part of a birthday celebration, we had Lydia of Porch Light Gathering cater the dinner for the adults and everything was excellent. We had two young babysitters to watch the kids and they were great.

Joe. Thank you so much for the nice review. We hope you can return soon.
The home is absolutely amazing. The photos really don’t do justice to the stunning beauty of the home and location. Everything we needed for our stay was provided and we had no issues. We had a family vacation for a lifetime and enjoyed every second. In addition, we highly recommend the yacht cruise. The boat and Captain Chuck are both amazing.
We stayed five nights for a family reunion, 12 adults and four little kids. The house and property were super clean. We loved the beach, pool, sunsets. Any question or concern we had was addressed quickly by Andrea. It was fun watching boats go in and out of the channel. The two houses (main and guest) provide lots of space for people to relax on their own or to mingle whole group. The property is a short drive to downtown Saugatuck. Great location! We hope to return to this special house!

Thank you so much, Kathy. Five star reviews are what I strive for. And am open to any suggestions privately. The health of my business is dependent on people like you taking the time to write a review!
We had an amazing stay and enjoyed walks on the sandy beach and amazing sunsets. The location is unique and private with unbeatable views of Lake Michigan and the channel. Lots of gathering areas and space indoors as well as a large lakeside deck that is perfect for sunset watching or just listening to the waves. A beautiful retreat and would highly recommend!

I’m so glad you could visit with us at the Saugatuck Beach House.
I have seen this property from the other side of channel and online for year. I have always wanted to stay there. While the say was a short one, it met and exceeded my expectations.
We spent 3 nights at this property and it was amazing. Can't ask for more! The views are great from any corner of this house!
Everything was clean and super organized! Definitely will come back!

Lilia,
Thank you so much for staying with us. I know you debated it because weather wasn’t great, pool not open yet and not quite spring. I’m so happy you enjoyed it and will return. It’s great 365 days a year.
Beautiful, serene location. Magnificent views of Lake Michigan and the Saugatuck channel. Very spacious home with all the amenities. Hard to imagine ever staying anywhere else on Lake Michigan. Looking forward to our next time!
We had an amazing week at Andrea’s house on Lake Michigan. Andrea was a very attentive host and was quick to respond if we had questions or needed suggestions about the area.The property is very nice and has a big kitchen - full of everything you need to cook and a separate dining room with a table that comfortably fits 10-12 people for big family dinners. The wrap around porch was a favorite spot after dinner to relax in the lounge chairs and watch the sun set. Our kids enjoyed spending time at the pool and the beach during the day. In the evenings they enjoyed playing pool and catching up on their favorite shows.Definitely a great place if you are looking for a relaxing trip by the beach.

Amy. Thank you so much for the great review. I try to give my guests a great experience. We hope you will return soon. It’s a great place all year round.
This was our second year staying in the home and we came back for a reason! There is no better spot to enjoy Lake Michigan, boats and the Saugatuck/Douglas area than this property. The pool was a LOVELY addition this year that we took full advantage of. The beach, sunsets and views are second-to-none. Thank you for another wonderful week on Lake MI!
The eleven of us had a fantastic week at Petrichor! There was plenty of space for our three generations in four families to spend time together, or retreat to privacy. The home was immaculate, and extremely well stocked with everything from pantry staples to kitchen necessities to games to pool toys! The views from the living rooms and decks were just stunning-many hours were spent watching the boats and the wildlife! The lower level game room was a hit with the kids, and the pool was perfect for everyone. The beach was easily accessible and provided relaxation with beautiful views and plenty of seating around the fire pit. Andrea was very quick to respond to any questions or issues we had. There’s no better place to spend a week in summer!

Why they chose this property
The most amazing views and beach in a great location between Holland and Saugatuck-Douglas on the beach and channel. Wide sandy beach. Best Lake Michigan home in the state. 360 degree decking on the main home with a guest house. 2 kitchens, 2 laundries, hot tub on the deck, huge beach, 5 acres, boat watching, nearly 1000 acre state park just a short walk/ski down the beach. Multi-million home. Optional private chef (if available) and option 4 hour private sunset or day cruise aboard the classic one-of-a-kind fantail motor yacht, Yemaya, docked very near the home at the Safe Harbor Tower Marina. (in season and included for full week bookings in boating season). 15 minutes or less to Holland, Saugatuck, Douglas, Fennville with farmer's markets, the arts, great shopping and entertainment, live outdoor concerts in summer and the best beach. Architecturally designed multi-million home with great entertaining spaces. Jacuzzi tub and gas log fireplace in the master suite. Streaming TV's in most every room. Billiards and ping pong tables. Wet bar upstairs. Ice maker, warming drawer, double Gaggenau ovens, 2 large refrigerator freezers in main home and a full kitchen in the guest house are all very well stocked for cooking and meals. Great teak outdoor furniture and some Adirondacks. Beach towels and all indoor linens provided. Multi million dollar home with multi million dollar views. 2-story living room has new gas log fireplace. Lots of room to gather together or spread out for a little alone time on the deck, in the house or on the beach. Check out Serenity for a sailing schooner or the Star of Saugatuck paddle boat. Modales or Fenn Valley Wineries, Saugatuck Center of the Arts, Hope College Summer Repertory Theater, or Holland Civic Theater, Meijer Gardens, Crane's Orchards, the Saugatuck Dunes State Park next door to the gated North Shore Community where this home sits are all "to do's" on your vacation. As amazing all year round as in the summer.
What makes this property unique
Pier for fishing & boat watching. Some of the best low bluff, walkable beach in a great location. Gated community of North Shore of Saugatuck with marinas & rentals of boats and fishing nearby. Rent a retro electric boat or a "doughnut" boat on the Kalamazoo River, climb to the top of Mt Baldy in Saugatuck or Mt Pisgah near the Holland State Park for some of the best views. Visit Oxbox Arts Camp or the John Ball Park Zoo or Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids, summer performances at Hope College's Summer Repertory Theater or at the Saugatuck Center for the Arts. Many of the local farmer's markets are Wednesdays & Saturdays (Holland & South Haven) & Saugatuck has it's own. Demond's Groceries in Douglas is the closest but Family Fare on S Washington and Meijers on E 16th St in Holland or Meijers in South Haven have more selection and better produce.
Spectacular all year round with the nearly 1000 acre Saugatuck Dunes State Park just a short walk to our north past about 7 other beachfront homes and there's hundreds of acres on the south side of the pier and channel that is a preserve so this 7 acre property feels like it's much larger.
