We had the best time staying at this lovely cottage in the woods. Property was very clean, cozy, cute and well maintained. There were plenty of towels and the kitchen was well stocked. The hot tub was clean and worked well. Close to wineries, restaurants and beaches. We would definitely love to book this home again!

Perfect house in a quiet location. Clean and lots of amenities like kitchen items, plenty of towels, extra pillows and blankets, vast collection of movies, several board games, and a nice hot tub. Be prepared for nature, you’re in the forest so spiders, bees, mosquitoes will be abundant. A few ants in the kitchen but manageable. Owner was responsive with one small issue. Quick drive to Saugatuck and easy to get to other west coast Michigan towns.

This property is so cute! It’s nestled in the trees right off the road. Other than a little traffic noise it was very quiet. It’s a quaint older house with some cute modern decor touches to give it just the right blend. We were very impressed with how well stocked the kitchen was and with all the little extras that most rentals do not provide for you that were available to us. While we were not at the house for most of our days there, it was so nice to have a relaxing place to come back to of an evening. I definitely recommend checking it out if you need a place to stay in the area!

great getaway

Our family of four really enjoyed our stay here! The area is very peaceful and beautiful and not far from the activities we enjoyed--Tulip Fest in Holland, dinner in Douglas. The house has great decor, art, and furniture and everything we needed. We were surprised with how nice the outdoor space is and made use of the hot tub and fire pit. I'd love to stay here again sometime!

Great place for a family trip!

My husband, two-year-old son, and I recently stayed here for a weekend trip to the Tulip Time festival in Holland. We had a wonderful visit. The home is cozy, comfortable, and quiet, and was well-equipped for our visit. It was easy to find the home and check in based on the host's directions, and it was well-located in between several of the local areas we were visiting on our trip. We'd definitely love to stay here again!
