The house was beautiful, we especially enjoyed the three seasons room. The fenced-in yard was an added bonus when traveling with our dog. Would rent again.

Fantastic House

We always enjoy our stay at Rise 'N Shine - it is a beautiful and well maintained property. It is close enough to downtown Saugatuck for a stroll for dinner, and far enough away so as to avoid the crowds of summer visitors. First rate in all respects!

Great spot for family with young kids and dog

We had a great stay in Saugatuck this past week! It was the perfect location! We walked downtown daily and were a short drive to Oval Beach and Douglas. We are a family of 5 plus our dog. We brought our own pack n play and kept the baby with us in the master bedroom. The 2 bedroom and 2 bath was perfect for our family. The screened in porch was lovely for some more indoor space.

Nice area for a getaway

Nice property layout and linens were clean. There is a bit of a smell, but somewhat to be expected with it being dog friendly focused. You get a response in a timely manner to address any questions which helped.

Perfect get-away spot

This property was everything it was advertised! The house was spotless and really well laid out. We had our two dogs with us and the fenced in yard was perfect for them. We had a perfect time doing absolutely nothing for a few days, which is exactly what we were looking for! Will go back again!

Great stay!

This property was adorable. It was perfect for a girls weekend. When we showed up the driveway had not been plowed so that was a small challenge but otherwise everything else was great! The beds were so comfortable! We would definitely go back again!

Wonderful Home!

We really enjoyed our stay at this home! Everything was very clean and neat. It was nicely furnished and very comfortable. The home was well stocked with anything we might need. Our favorite room was the large screened in porch, where we spent a lot of time! The neighborhood was nice and quiet and a great place to walk. We love visiting Saugatuck and look forward to staying in this home again!

Wonderful Stay

This was our fourth stay at Rise N Shine. It's an impeccable house in a great location - a short walk to the center of town, but far enough away to avoid the crowds. Can't wait to go back!

Wonderful

What a charming home! Great care has been put into every detail of his house, which is lovely and well appointed throughout. We especially loved the all weather porch and spent lots of time there playing games and watching tv. The yard is on the smaller side, but it was nice to have for our dog. Town is accessible by foot if you’re willing to walk just a bit. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Pet Friendly Rental

This was the perfect rental for our dog and newborn. The three season room was great for relaxing and watching football with the family. Close to town as well. Only downside is the lack of sidewalks as you make your way toward downtown Saugatuck - but this is a city thing, not a rental thing! Would stay again.
