Nice rental in a great location. Close to everything in town. Nicely decorated and clean. Beds were comfortable. Good communications throughout. No issues with finding the place, parking or getting in. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful little place. Right in the middle of everything. Walk right into town - lots of shops. The town doesn’t really get moving until like 9 AM or so and if you’re an early bird family that’s a little difficult but overall everything was great. The house was so cool and unique. Definitely not a place for toddlers so just keep that in mind if you’re bringing little kids.

We loved our stay at this quaint spot! We took a girls trip and there were 6 of us and we didn’t really want to share beds, so we had taken air mattresses in case we needed them, but there ended up being a futon and plenty of couches so we didn’t even use them! The beds were amazing!! It was the perfect location. If you are used to visiting these small Michigan towns you know how valuable it is just to have a parking spot, and that was another perk this rental offered! We had reserved parking and we just walked it from there!
Saugatuck offers the perfect small town charm. When we checked out we drove to South Haven, and it’s fun, but our whole party agreed that the shopping in Saugatuck can’t be beat. The best shops, great ice cream, good coffee shops, and good food - all within walking distance. This was the perfect home base. We loved our visit! It wasn’t our first time and it for sure won’t be our last!

This is a beautiful building in an excellent location in the heart of Saugatuck. There's a great little shop in the ground floor as well.
The loft is very comfortable, clean, and well maintained. The living area is bright and roomy and was great for spending an afternoon with family as a respite in the air conditioning during the hottest part of the day or during a rainstorm.
The unit is entirely on the upper level as well, so if you have a stroller or heavy bags to bring along, be advised that it's a hike up the stairs.
The kitchen is kind of DIY-ish and there is no dishwasher, so it's not great for doing your own cooking for a longer stay.
My only issue with this property is the logistics of the bathrooms and sleeping arrangements. We needed three beds, one of which was the sleeper sofa in the living room. However, the living room windows did not have blinds, so it felt a little strange from a privacy perspective, and it got really bright and sunny really early in the morning. Additionally, the only bathroom on the main level is only accessible through the master bedroom. There is another bathroom up in the loft, and as such both bathrooms are slightly inconvenient for different reasons.
In summary, it's a neat place, but just be aware of the logistical limitations.
