Starry Night cottage was in a nice quiet neighborhood, but with easy access to the Saugatuck downtown offerings and the beaches. Traveling with our 2 dogs, we really appreciated the fenced backyard and screened- in back patio! Very comfortable, and the owners were super - responsive!

Great place.

I would recommend Starry Night Cottage to anyone wanting a cute clean place to stay. We walked to town a few times and drove on the day it was really hot. We played yard games, barbecued and sat in the screened in porch alot! We would definitely go back in a minute, enjoyed our time there!

Perfect for family and large dog

Great location- Quiet street and only a 10 minute walk via sidewalks to town/ shopping district. Very spacious house and fenced in yard- Our golden retriever couldn’t have been happier! Perfect and thoughtful hosts- the house has everything you will need including towels by the door for wet dog feet in the event of rain! We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Saugatuck!

Great Saugatuck Rental

The house is cute, comfortable, well maintained and very very clean. The house is very spacious. Would love to come back in warmer weather to experience the back porch. Easy walk and quick drive to town. Excellent communications from the owners. We all agreed we would definitely stay here again.

Couldn't Recommend Enough

This property was exactly what we needed for our sleepy beach weekend! (It's even bigger than it looks in the pictures, we were pleasantly surprised.) The fenced-in yard was perfect for our pup to get her zoomies out, and we enjoyed sitting on the screened-in back porch in the evenings without worrying about getting attacked by bugs. A short walk to downtown, our group was able to come and go very easily. Tracey and Tim were excellent communicators and were very accommodating to any questions that we had. Will book here again next time we're back in Saugatuck!

One more trip

This was our annual spring break trip and our first time staying here. The place was exactly as described, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Our dogs loved the backyard and the kitchen was equipped with everything needed to cook. The coffee pot is not a keurig so we purchased ground coffee at the store. Will definitely stay here again! The whole experience was easy from start to finish.
