Wander Inn - Updated Log Cabin near shared beach

great place to stay

Great cabin, very attentive property manager. Very good space for a family.

The location of the cabin is great (a small community with plenty of privacy). The path for the Saugatuck Dune Rides runs right through the back yard so there are dune buggies back and forth multiple times a day. They weren't too loud so it didn't bother us, but would have been nice to know ahead of time. Communication with the property manager(s?) could have been better. One of the toilets didn't work (basement) and when we informed them, they advised us to use the other 2 bathrooms and they would address it later as long as it wasn't actively leaking. With 4 adults and 2 small children, 3 bathrooms was a key reason for booking so that was disappointing. We also would have liked to have had a fire in the fire pit, but no wood was provided. We inquired and were told there was a bundle of firewood on the property. The only one we could find was right under the porch (see photo), consisting of two logs and some old newspapers. Again, disappointing, but not a deal breaker. We were aware that the temps in Michigan in June could be cold. The cabin comes equipped with a Nest thermostat, which is easy to use with IF you have access to the app that controls it. We did not. There were times that we wanted to turn on the heat (esp. at night) and there was no way to do so. When communicating with management, I was sent a tutorial video on how to use the Nest thermostat (that stated to utilize the app). This was super frustrating. Would book again, but customer service could be improved.

Our family stay over the past couple of nights have been nothing short of unbelievable. The home itself is totally clean, much bigger on the inside than it would appear on the outside. It’s definitely definitely not a cabin per se… There’s plenty of space and activities to do once you were on the property, but the big selling point you were five minutes from downtown Saugatuck and only 15 minutes away from Holland… It is a perfect quiet location for all family fun.

My partner and I had a lovely weekend getaway at this cozy cabin. The place was perfectly clean, easy to check into, and the property manager was very communicative. I would recommend this location to friends and family in the future.

The cabin was gorgeous and clean. Spacious with extra living room in the basement for late night games. Beautiful neighborhood. Kitchen well stocked with anything we needed to bake and make food. Close to the dunes and highway. We stayed during a winter storm and it was very drafty in certain rooms, almost unbearable on the main floor bedroom. The blankets were summer blankets, luckily we had brought our own with us to keep warm. Overall, nice cabin.

3 nights of sleeping in, puzzles, cards and adult bevs! Due to rain we were forced to shop, eat and drink! Great stay…

The property was amazing. From booking to check in, the experience was seamless. There was enough room for us to be together as well as have privacy when needed. The fire pit was perfect as well as the front porch rockers. The neighborhood lake was enjoyed by all. It is a short drive to town, restaurants and other activities. Would definitely stay there again. Thank you Adam.

This prosperity is perfect for your next girls trip! Weber stayed here two years in a row and will continue to book this property. The cabin is darling, very clean and peaceful. There’s plenty of couch space for lounging and snacking with your gal pals. Plenty of bedrooms and privacy for when you need a quick nap or quiet time. The property is extremely close to downtown and many options for food and fun! The property management company is very responsive and eager to help when needed. I high recommend this gem in the woods for your next getaway!

From Reservation to Check-in to stay and Check-out we had a wonderful experience. The Wander Inn is as listed and then some. We were able to relax and have fun! My 10 year old grandson caught his first fish in the lake which is walking distance while my daughter-in-laws sunned on the beach. Most importantly its close to Saugatuck and all its attractions as well as Opal Beach! We will go back there!
