Guest reviews for this Douglas Michigan Rentals
Beautiful view and perfect change of scenery
“Our family was looking to get away during the pandemic madness. Alex’s house offered all the comforts of home, with a beautiful view and the perfect change of scenery. The kitchen/house were well stocked with everything you could need - all while fitting into a minimalistic clean style. Alex was very helpful and available anytime we needed him - which was a rare occurrence because everything was so thoughtfully organized and well labeled for our convenience. We loved our stay.”
Suberb outdoor space and sharp knives!
“We loved our stay in Douglas! We are a discerning bunch, and our stay lived up to our expectations – and then some. The house felt brand new and was spotless, plus so beautifully decorated (lots of art, modern but homey touches, amazing gaming area with 3 large TVs and a pool/ foosball/ darts area = plenty of use with the kids!). The space fit our large group – 4 adults and 5 kids – with room to spare. The bedrooms were spacious, comfortable, and well-lit. The outdoor space was superb: we spent our afternoons on the rooftop patio overlooking the river and ate most of our dinners at the backyard table while the kids ran around. The indoor dining table and breakfast nook had plenty of space, too. The kitchen had everything we needed, with a great open layout and a surprising stock of kitchen gadgets and utensils (sharp knives!) to prepare our meals. We have been coming to the area for many years, and small touches really set this house apart vs. other rentals we have stayed at (immaculately clean and modern, everything well labeled, large TVs, Sonos audio system, nicely decorated, etc.). An easy walk to shops in downtown Douglas, and only a few minutes away from downtown Saugatuck by car. We would definitely come back!”
The house was amazing!
“We had 13 people in our party, 3 generations. The house was amazing! The location was perfect. The property manager was extremely attentive and helpful whenever we needed her which was rare. We are already planning our trip for next year!”
Sparkling clean!
“It is a great house for large group of friends or family. Plenty of indoor and outdoor gathering spaces to hangout. Lots of amenities available and sparkling clean. Both kids and adults had a blast in the yard, rooftop and game room. Minutes away from downtown and beach. Highly recommend!”
Plenty of space and great location
“I recently stayed for a weekend away with friends and this house was perfect. Plenty of space for us all to hang out, enough bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone and great location. It was an easy drive to oval beach and great beach chairs the house provided we could take with us. Can’t wait to stay again!”
Great for work retreat - Highly recommend!
“OMG. So nice. We had 5 adults traveling for a work retreat and everyone was very impressed. Plenty of space, looks just like the pictures, and has all the touches of home. Well, a bigger, cleaner, prettier version of home!! Walk to Douglas, quick drive to the beach and downtown Saugatuck. Highly recommend!”
Location is perfect
“My wife and I took a week to get away from the city and stayed at this house... it was AWESOME!! The house has everything you could need and more, location is perfect, and it definitely felt like an escape from the real world. We’ll definitely be back!”
Very large and clean house
“Amazing house! Very large and clean house. Went up there with a group of girls for a girls getaway and this house was perfect! Town is perfect and the house was perfect for fun inside the home as well!”
Walking distance to dock for fishing!
“Beautiful and modern home located within walking distance to downtown Douglas and a long dock perfect for fishing and launching off in kayaks. Super short drive to downtown Saugatuck and Oval Beach. We had a large group of six adults and six young kids and the check in was excellent and easy, kitchen was stocked with all we needed, lots of towels and comfy beds, and great upper deck and outdoor space to enjoy the beautiful Michigan evenings. We can’t wait to stay again!”
