The best!
This little house is perfect. It has a short walk to the beach. I have a 7 and 9 year old and we probably made that walk to the beach 15 times in a week and they never complained once. This short walk is crucial because there is rarely parking available at Douglas Beach.

Great Setting, Great Property, Great Stay!
Western MI surprises with a tropical vibe in the Midwest! Relaxing, quiet neighborhood with easy access to a beautiful small beach w/stellar sunsets! Close to gorgeous Saugatuck Dunes State Park, more beaches & quaint towns on the water. Cottage was exactly as listed & stocked well for a traveling family. Backyard was spacious and cottage was a good size for a family of 4 with teenagers. Great kitchen options - nice hot water (& bathtub!) and the washer & dryer were a great help! Host has is all right!
