About this property

Malabar: Downtown Saugatuck Cottage, Fire Pit, Pet Friendly, Sun Room, Porch

Malabar

Malabar is a charming, updated downtown Saugatuck retreat, blending modern comforts with classic cottage charm. Renovated with thoughtful touches, this home offers a bright and inviting space where every detail has been designed for relaxation and connection.

Step onto the enclosed front sun porch, a perfect perch for morning coffee or an evening drink, where the slow pace of the tree-lined street invites you to linger. A side porch with cozy seating and a fire pit offers a private spot for outdoor conversation or evening s'mores. The backyard provides extra space to unwind, while the ample driveway makes parking easy and convenient.

Inside, the open main level encourages time together. The spacious living area features a flat-screen Smart TV for streaming, while the dining area and open kitchen provide plenty of room for cooking, eating, and hanging out. Cool, calming shades of blue give the home a serene, lake-inspired vibe. A main-level full bathroom and laundry area complete this convenient floor.

Upstairs, three restful bedrooms provide a sanctuary at the end of the day. The king bedroom faces east, welcoming the morning sun, while the queen bedroom enjoys a bright southern exposure. A bedroom with bunk beds faces north, perfect for kids or extra guests. A full bathroom serves the upper level, making mornings seamless for everyone.

Malabar's location is unbeatable. A short, flat walk delivers you to all the delights of downtown Saugatuck—shops, galleries, bars, restaurants, and parks. The nearby riverfront boardwalk is ideal for leisurely strolls, and just a few minutes' drive brings you to the soft sands of Oval Beach or the rolling dunes of Saugatuck Dune State Park. For theater lovers, Saugatuck offers Broadway-quality productions, from plays and musicals to concerts and dance performances.

Just a short drive from Malabar, the sparkling shores of Lake Michigan await. Oval Beach, famous for its soft white sand and gentle dunes, is perfect for sunbathing, swimming, or a leisurely stroll along the water's edge. For more adventure, Saugatuck Dune State Park offers miles of hiking trails through towering dunes with breathtaking views of the lake. Whether you're building sandcastles, floating in the waves, or catching a stunning sunset over Lake Michigan, the beaches nearby provide endless ways to soak up the sun and the lake's natural beauty.

Book your stay at Malabar and dive into the best of Saugatuck—from riverside strolls and boutique shopping to sun-soaked days on Lake Michigan's beaches, this location can't be beat!

Please Note:
- All bedrooms are upstairs. There is a full and a twin sofa sleeper in the living room for your use.
- One of the upstairs bedrooms does not have a vent. For heating and cooling in that room, you will need to leave the door open.
