We had a small user error trying to lock the door. I texted and I couldn’t believe how fast everyone got back to me. So friendly and helpful!!! The place was perfect. The foliage around the house really lends to beauty and privacy. The place was very well maintained and cared for.
Great stay!
My family of four loved our stay! Plenty of room, great location and we loved ending the day in the hot tub. We're already talking about booking this home again next year. Thanks!
The house in Douglas is in a great location and a quiet neighborhood. It is one block from the main street with restaurants and shopping. The house was clean and pretty much as advertised. It has several large windows in the front living area, which provides a lot of daytime light. However, when we pulled the blinds...
Our home is tucked in downtown Douglas, with Center Street's coffee shops, stores, galleries, and restaurants seconds from the home. Enjoy a relaxed walk through town, pause by the waterfront at Wade's Bayou, or drive to Saugatuck and the Lake Michigan beaches for more ways to explore. Please reach out to us for local recs!
Downtown Douglas is a short walk from the home. We recommend a car for exploring Saugatuck, the Lake Michigan beaches, Fennville's orchards and wineries, and the surrounding lakeshore.

The house in Douglas is in a great location and a quiet neighborhood. It is one block from the main street with restaurants and shopping. The house was clean and pretty much as advertised. It has several large windows in the front living area, which provides a lot of daytime light. However, when we pulled the blinds down in the evening, a couple of the blinds were torn; these need to be replaced. There is a back patio, with a hot tub, outdoor seating and bicycles, but we did not use any of those so am unable to make a comment. The instructions for the front door keypad were accurate, but we found the keypad to be quite sensitive when putting in the code. It often took multiple attempts to enter or lock the door when leaving. We called the host company once to help us with the keypad and another time to help with adjusting the air conditioning. They were always quick to respond and solved our problems. I can definitely recommend and would stay there again.
Perfect location! House was perfect for 4 adults for a long weekend. Close to restaurants and shopping, oval beach is a quick drive. Back door does not open all the way due to the floor.
Great location, house was very pretty. Here are a few things that could’ve been better. The kitchen has a slope that made me trip every time I walked in. Also, the back patio door only opened about 12 inches. We had to squeeze in and out. Back patio was dusty and dirty. They came over to blow and said they’d wash down the pavers the next day, but they didn’t come. They must have also changed the door code at 9 am the day of checkout. Good thing one person stayed home to let us back in.
This house is cute and charming! Great location. Within walking distance to coffee shop and restaurants but still has a private feel. My family and I loved the big windows and brightness of the house. Everything appears newly renovated (except floors). Only issue was back door that doesn’t fully open because it gets stuck on floor. Overall loved this house and location and would definitely stay here again!
Best stay I’ve ever been at! They were so helpful when we had questions and super friendly. The location is great for going to the beach, close to restaurants coffee shops etc. the house was so clean and cute with lots of room and super nice back patio. It also has lots of trees around which offers great privacy. Would 1000% stay again!
We had a comfortable and pleasant stay! The house was located right by downtown Douglas, with places to eat and a playground. We enjoyed the bikes on the property and the comfortable living spaces. Would absolutely book again.
lovely place. great hot tub and the two bicycles were an added bonus.
We loved our stay here, perfect little spot in Douglas. We would stay here again. Be cautious with the floor, albeit beautiful, it is uneven… for those who new to walking, or requiring assistance be aware. Our toddler broke their radius / ulna from tripping on the floor between the dining / kitchen.
