We enjoyed our stay at this property. The location is great. Parking is a little tricky and the room upstairs does not have AC. Would stay here again!!
Our vacation included myself, my children, and my grandchildren. We loved spending time together and especially loved the easy access to the beautiful beach. The deck area was our favorite spot to watch the sunsets. The house fit our needs so we could spend our time together. The wifi had a weak signal, but otherwise, we were able to do everything on our wishlist.
Home was clean, well stocked & owner was responsive and extra responsible in getting the home ready. The walkway was shoveled and the fireplace was going when we arrived, Beautiful home right on the beach- we will definitely come back.
Perfect getaway in celebration of my parentâs 50th anniversary. Lovely home with immediate beach access and a short drive to all of the sites of Douglas and Saugatuck. Clean, comfortable and spacious with numerous areas to lounge and relax, both indoors and out. Would definitely return!
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home on the lake. The hosts were quick to answer a question we had about the property mid-stay. The master suite was especially lovely with a wonderful view of the lake. We spent every evening on the patio enjoying wonderful sunsets. My only caution would be to those who have mobility issues (either family members or pets) as there were a few steps to and from the property to the street. Overall, we had an absolutely lovely, peaceful stay here!
Great access to beach on Lake Michigan and close to Douglass and Saugatuck. House was very comfortable with beautiful views of the Lake. Conveniently furnished with lots of dishes, linens, nice TVs. We would definitely rent this location again!
Location is awesome. Really neat house right on the water. House is well stocked with all essentials to make it a great stay. Parking was a little awkward . You park on the street then climb down several flights of stairs and a wooden walkway thru woods to get to house.
This property has a lot going for it. The location is excellent. Right on the beach and beautiful sunset views. The home was very clean. Great bathrooms. Plenty of towels and everyday items like soap, paper towel and toilet paper.
Tons of kitchen ware but many items are very worn. Needs some weeding out.
Two of the wooden and two of the Adirondack chairs are broken, understandable at the end of the season, but should be removed.
Not sure how anyone has been able to get the main tv in the living room to work (and we had two generations give it a go). Would have been nice to watch something other than the lower level smart tvs.
There are a number of stairs to the actual cottage. Just something to note if you have any accessibility issues. Our major concern was the lack of responsiveness from the host. We arrived Saturday. On Sunday, it was apparent that the dishwasher was broken. We contacted the host and checked things that could easily fix the issue. We informed him that none of his suggestions corrected the problem and never heard from him again. We removed dishes from the dishwasher and hand washed dishes for the length of our stay.
Expected more from a premier host and property. He should have had someone come to check the issue at some point during the week. He did not. Nor did he offer an apology for the inconvenience. Would have made this a truly five star experience.
Very nice beach side home with plenty of windows and plenty of stairs.Very nice deck.
Parking can be a challenge with many of the spaces along the street marked "reserved" by surrounding homes.
This was awesome place to stay at and we would love the opportunity to come back one day. Very clean and everything was close by. Can't beat that view!
Parking was an issue. Neighbors were a bit touchy about parking. A bit warm in lower level. Otherwise weather was great. Overall great stay. There was a broken grey chair. Also upstairs shower had a crack on floor.
Almost my whole family from across the country met at this home. First time we have been together since before covid. The house is fabulous! No main dining table - no problem! The large kitchen island was huge and had extra stools to seat everyone. plus the outside seating was plentiful. Plenty of towels and sheets... everything worked. Love the perfect few of lake michigan and the sunsets. The deck was by far a favorite! The only thing I would change is the arrangement of the furniture in the queen bedroom that has the bunk beds. we didn't use the bunk beds and maybe the beds are arranged to easily reach outlets. not sure. But, I feel like it could be arranged a bit better so as to access the queen bed on both sides. All in all a great home and we'd for sure stay there again. THANK YOU! EG COTTAGE!
Like many reviewers, the photos of the Lake donât do this house justice. There are amazing views from the main living area (sitting room and kitchen) and primary bedroom. In addition, you are so close from some views that it feels like youâre hovering just above the water. If you want to be on the water, this is the place.
