About this property

Luxurious Secluded Oasis Across from Lake in Artsy Downtown Douglas-Posh Game Rm

Affectionately nicknamed, “The Douglas Darling,” this classy 4 BR-2.5BA vacation home directly across from Lake Kalamazoo (and 2 miles from Lake Michigan) is a 2-block walk from downtown Douglas’s excellent art galleries, scrumptious restaurants and trendy boutiques. Spacious, modern and loaded with amenities, it features everything you need for a memorable getaway, be it a family vacation or group gathering.

The professionally designed interior emphasizes stylish, yet cozy furnishings. All-new high-end appliances & a Keurig enhance the open-concept kitchen/dining room, accompanied by gorgeous marble countertops. (Top-of-the-line laundry appliances, too). A mini-office with wraparound computer desk (and hi-speed Wi-Fi) just off the kitchen has sliding glass doors onto a Zen-style patio. The super-spacious master BR—also with patio access—includes luxury king-sized bed and fully remodeled bath with heated floor, dual vanity, modern tub and glass-and-tile shower. Chic living room has DirecTV, gas fireplace, and elegant dining room opens to way-comfy screened, slate-floored porch. Tesla charger conveniently available at the home!

Upstairs includes three well-appointed bedrooms, each with their own flatscreen TV -- two with queen-sized beds, one with twin beds. One bedroom also has a desk with large plug-in monitor that makes an ideal spot for remote commuting in a quiet space.

The fully fenced backyard features a slate patio, eye-catching rock and flower garden, pacifying lily pond. and outdoor seating. Nice, clean attached 2-car garage. The nearby downtown Douglas area flourishes with a rich and relaxed culture, as does Saugatuck, just 2 miles away. Besides having two super-close popular lakes, Chicago’s magnificent metropolis is a convenient 2-hour drive from Douglas.

Memorial Day Weekend
This is our second time to stay in this lovely home. With a game room and location walkable to downtown Douglas, there was something for the whole family to enjoy. We hope to return next year!

Family stay
The home was very nice. Pricey for the value but nice. Part of the reason we rented here were some of the unique features....problem was,after all our money was paid; they made new rules which took away from the reason we rented here in the first place.

Douglas Darling
This is the second time we have stayed at the Douglas Darling and we would happily stay again.It was impeccably clean. The photos posted accurately reflect the property. We vacationed with two small dogs so the fully fenced backyard was a bonus-there were no gaps in the fence and its design didn't leave spaces for smaller dogs to escape.
