Beautiful home so close to town! Great neighborhood for walking and exercising pets. Be careful on the porch—slick when wet and the top step isn’t marked. Lighting can be wonky, and the beds are . . . In need of an upgrade. Kitchen was well-stocked with high-end appliances. TV was nice. Backyard was great with dogs. Would definitely stay 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!

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 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.

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!
