About this property
Retreat with Stately Pool
Step into timeless charm at this designer-owned, beautifully restored 1857 gem, reimagined through the decades. Where old-world character meets modern comfort, every detail - from original architecture to curated art - tells a story. Antiques, vintage finds, and warm interiors invite you to linger. Wake to sunlit mornings, unwind in luxurious rooms, and embrace the calm of a slower pace. Fairview is more than a stay—it’s a soulful retreat that feels like home.
Being an Art Coast Property, guests of Fairview have access to round-the-clock guest support. Simply give us a ring and we are there to assist!
You will receive a specially curated Guidebook prior to arrival, which will have our contact information, particulars about the house, tried-and-true recommendations, and a list of our concierge offerings.
Nestled on expansive, professionally landscaped grounds, this serene retreat feels worlds away—yet it's less than a five-minute drive from the shops, galleries, and beaches of downtown Saugatuck. Located directly across from Clearbrook Golf Club, you’ll enjoy peaceful, open views and the gentle rhythm of nature all around. Tall trees, quiet paths, and a sense of privacy create a tranquil, wooded oasis that invites you to relax, breathe deeply, and truly unwind.
Your safety and security are our top priority. Keyless Entry allows for a flexible check-in. You will be provided with a customized code prior to your arrival.
Brought to you by the owners of the acclaimed Wickwood Inn in Saugatuck, Fairview reflects the same thoughtful hospitality, elevated design, and attention to detail that have made their inn a beloved destination.
Step into timeless elegance at Fairview, a beautifully restored historic home originally built in 1850. Thoughtfully renovated by professional artisans and designers, this property blends 19th-century charm with modern luxury in a quiet, picturesque neighborhood just minutes from downtown Saugatuck and the shores of Lake Michigan.
In addition to the main house, the property includes Rose’s Cottage, a charming studio cottage nestled in the yard of Fairview. Named after Oprah Winfrey’s former chef and the current chef of Wickwood Inn, the cottage offers a cozy, thoughtfully designed retreat ideal for guests who appreciate a bit of privacy, while remaining seamlessly connected to the main home — perfect for larger groups or multi-generational stays.
Fairview invites you to slow down and savor life’s finer moments. The spacious, lush yard now features a brand-new 20’ x 42’ in-ground pool, designed as a true outdoor oasis. The pool is accented with eight elegant fountains and paired with a convenient outdoor shower, making it ideal for long summer days spent lounging, swimming, and gathering with friends and family. The yard is also well suited for lawn games, outdoor dining, or quiet afternoons under the trees.
Fairview’s walkable location makes it easy to enjoy the best of Saugatuck — stroll to dinner, ice cream, or nearby attractions, with beaches, galleries, boutiques, and restaurants just minutes away.
Inside, every detail is chosen for comfort and beauty. British-made Vispring mattresses dressed in luxurious Matouk linens ensure restorative sleep, while spa-like Waterworks marble bathrooms feature laBottega bath products, plush robes, and elegant fixtures. Carefully curated antiques, original artwork, and refined textiles lend the home its richly layered, personal feel.
Whether gathered around the dining table, enjoying a quiet reading nook, or sipping coffee on the porch at sunrise, Fairview offers a refined yet welcoming escape. Elegant, comfortable, and steeped in history, this is a destination for guests who value craftsmanship, style, and the quiet luxury of a well-lived life.
Fairview is just around the corner from downtown Saugatuck, Douglas, Fennville, scenic beaches, and a variety of wineries and breweries.
Don’t feel like driving? No problem! The Saugatuck Township Interurban Transit Authority offers convenient pick-up and drop-off service anywhere in Saugatuck Township for just $1 each way. Call ahead or on the spot to reserve your ride—your chariot awaits!
