It was a pleasure hosting you over Christmas. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. We look forward to having you stay with us again. Thanks, Jaqua Vacation Rental Team
We had 3 generations of our family gathered together under 1 roof. It was terrific! Enjoyed the accommodations and proximity to Saugatuck and the beaches.
House was extremely clean and comfortable for our group. We loved that the bedrooms are separated from each other. Kitchen has great appliances and plenty of room for our group to gather as we prepared meals. The outdoor space is amazing. We loved seeing all of the wildlife and the pond is a great addition.

Great place for a family reunion! Easy check in, and quick response from Jaqua when we had questions. So much room for kids and adults to play. Perfect large kitchen for cooking and gathering. The kids loved fishing on the pond, and the adults enjoyed sharing stories of the day while winding down at the bonfire. Just perfect!!
We just checked out after spending a great long weekend at this property. It had everything. Owners were so responsive and accommodating. We are marking this place as a favorite and will definitely be back. Five plus stars!!!!

Hello Maureen, Thank you for your lovely review of 11 Acre Wood. It is a very popular property in our rental program. Hopefully, we can host you again in the future. Thank you The Jawua Vacation Rental Team.
The check-in process was easy, the house was clean, the beds were comfy and we enjoyed fishing in the pond. Short ride to downtown Douglas and downtown Saugatuck. The canoe was a little unstable so I would recommend not having children ride in it. Overall, it was a great stay and we would come back!
We had a great time at 11 Acres! It was very clean which is my main concern when renting for the first time. The linens could use a bit of an upgrade, towels, sheets and such but we made do. Kitchen as great and we LOVED the music system. We did puzzles, colored and read books. It was just what we needed and the location was perfect for exploring new small towns.
We had a wonderful time - the cabin was just like the pictures and only a 5min drive from downtown. The cabin is closer to neighbors than we anticipated, but wasn't an issue by any means. We had trouble with the AC working in the room above the garage, but the team was willing to send a fan late at night, and had maintenance over the next day. Overall, very nice stay.
For a large group this property was perfect. Hot tub, canoeing, bags, fishing poles, ping pong table, pro datt board it had it all. Appliances top shelf sleeping arrangements were great. We had a small plumbing issue and they handled it within 1 hour! The inhouse sound system was so cool (sonos).
Cannot speak more highly of this place! The cabin was a dream location for 12 of my friends and I. We all slept comfortably and enjoyed the canoe, fire pit, beach, even the fishing poles! There was some sand in the hot tub but we didn’t mind. Management team was very responsive and dropped off a fan when we confirmed the master did not work. We will absolutely be back!
We usually go to the ocean but were tired of the long drive from Ohio and wanted to try something different. The grandchildren learned to fish from their Dad, canoed with their uncle and still spent 3 days at Lake Michigan. It was very peaceful. It is a bit of a drive to a full scale grocery store so you just need to plan ahead, but there is plenty of storage at the house.
The house was nice and the layout was great. We did have a few hiccups with the hot tub but they were able to sort that right away and provide the right kind of service as expected due to our situation and it was immediate which was even better. The service there is exceptional. Only recommended to walk the property after each clean just to make sure there are no mistakes. Oh and get rid of the rug in the kitchen or use that rug tape. The corners come up and everyone just tripped on it.
We arrived with our party of nine for a three-night visit. The property and house were just as described in the listing. We had a great time in the house, playing games, cooking meals, enjoying the hot tub, walking the property, and relaxing. The proximity to downtown Saugatuck was very convenient. We had an amazing day walking through town, perusing the shops, attending a vendor fair, and stopping off for the occasional drink and snack at some of the local establishments. We were in town during the gas outage, which we worried would effect the trip, but all of the local businesses made the best of a bad situation, greeted us warmly, and accommodated our party to the best of their ability. It was a very memorable trip, and we all agreed that we would love to return to 11 Acre Wood for another visit. Thank you!
This cabin was our first time staying there. Only thing that i did not give 5 star for property cleaniness was due to the hot tub. It was not well maintained or ready for our stay. The service guy came got it serviced but the tub was less clean as expected. The cabin was clean and ready for us. We loved the ping pong table and played everyday. The contact person was helpful with my questions and provided instructions as needed. Also, responded quickly about hot tub issue. Customer service was great! Thank you!
