Minutes to downtown Saugatuck Oval Beach the fun addition of a pool the best home for a family vacation! We enjoyed every minute of it and 10/10 would stay again!
Property was beautiful. The pool was not open for our visit. We left our pets at home but I believe there was plenty of space for them to run and rest.

Hello Terry,
Thank you for your lovely review. Hopefully we can host you again (pool opens memorial weekend). Thank you.
It was a nice open concept home which helped for gathering and having fun. The accommodations were very good. However, there were a few issues with the facility like the connection to the outdoor grill was faulty and therefore had a very small and limited flame leaving the grill useless. Even switching out the other propane tanks didn't help. One of the main bathrooms did not have an electrical to plug for blow dryers, etc. And blow dryers were not present as was stated online. The water source needed a better filtration system. We could not drink the water and showering had a powerful iron smell that made the experience difficult to handle.
