We have stayed here several times now and are always pleased with our stay. The house is comfortable and the hosts make sure you feel your business with them is appreciated and valued.
Starry Night cottage was in a nice quiet neighborhood, but with easy access to the Saugatuck downtown offerings and the beaches. Traveling with our 2 dogs, we really appreciated the fenced backyard and screened- in back patio! Very comfortable, and the owners were super - responsive!
This is our second time staying at this property. Both times we have stayed have been excellent. The house is nice and clean - close to town - and the host is great with communication and makes us feel welcome as guests.
Very clean, has everything you need, even extra paper towel, toilet paper, zip bags! This place was well equipped, nice yard for the little dogs and just a short walk to down town Saugatuck. Will stay again!
This cottage is even bigger and nicer than it looks in the pictures. We really enjoyed the spacious, fully equipped kitchen and the lovely screened-in back porch. The street is quiet and it's an easy walk to town.
What a lovely, quiet location within walking distance (aprox 10 minutes at kiddo speed) to downtown Saugatuck! The place is lovely and was larger than expected with a modern kitchen. Loved sitting on the screened in porch in the evenings!

Brad was a great guest at the Starry Night Cottage. The cottage was left in great condition and communication was excellent. We hope Brad has the opportunity to stay with us again.
This was our 3rd stay at Starry nights cottage, and the cleaniness and supplies were superb as usual. Love the updated shower this trip, plus the addition of the king bed. The location and screened porch are favorite features for us also.
Beautiful property, close enough to walk to downtown. We really enjoyed the screened porch. The front door lock was a bit temperamental and tricky to figure out but we got it eventually.

Great place.
I would recommend Starry Night Cottage to anyone wanting a cute clean place to stay. We walked to town a few times and drove on the day it was really hot. We played yard games, barbecued and sat in the screened in porch alot! We would definitely go back in a minute, enjoyed our time there!
Great location- Quiet street and only a 10 minute walk via sidewalks to town/ shopping district.
Very spacious house and fenced in yard- Our golden retriever couldn’t have been happier!
Perfect and thoughtful hosts- the house has everything you will need including towels by the door for wet dog feet in the event of rain!
We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Saugatuck!

Great Saugatuck Rental
The house is cute, comfortable, well maintained and very very clean. The house is very spacious. Would love to come back in warmer weather to experience the back porch. Easy walk and quick drive to town. Excellent communications from the owners. We all agreed we would definitely stay here again.

So glad you enjoyed yourselves! Would love to have you come back in the future.
My friends and I had a wonderful time using the house for a wedding weekend. Clean, spacious, cute, and very close to downtown. Checkin and checkout processes were seamless with great communication from the host. Would love to come again and bring my fur baby next time as it is dog friendly :) thanks for a beautiful weekend!!
This was our annual spring break trip and our first time staying here. The place was exactly as described, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Our dogs loved the backyard and the kitchen was equipped with everything needed to cook. The coffee pot is not a keurig so we purchased ground coffee at the store. Will definitely stay here again! The whole experience was easy from start to finish.
