Wonderful house for a family vacation. Our daughter’s family of five stayed in the basement level where they had plenty of space. The rest of us (grandparents, aunts and uncles) slept in the bedrooms on the second floor. Kitchen was great and had almost everything we needed. The spacious screened in porch was perfect for eating and card games. Convenient location to Douglas business district and Bayou Park.
Our family had a wonderful time In Douglas at this lovely house. We especially liked the location and the layout of the house.
A group of us stayed here for a wedding in town, and we wish we had more time to enjoy the wonderful property! It was so beautiful, clean, and the perfect location. Would definitely return!
Large and spacious home in a lovely neighborhood. Home was clean and well-stocked. Walking distance to shops and water activities. Minor downsides would be no bedroom on main level so all guests need to be able to use stairs and with only one thermostat on main level, the upper-level bedrooms got warm during the night while lower-level bedrooms were quite cold. Minutes away by car to downtown Saugatuck. Highlights were kayaking on the Kalamazoo, the sunset cruise on Star of Saugatuck. Food highlights were The Farmhouse Deli, Kilwins and Sherman's Ice Cream.
We had a great stay in Douglas. The house was clean and provided several extras for the kids, plenty of beach towels, well stocked kitchen, etc. Had a few minor complaints about the house, but nothing that rose to the level of contacting management. Biggest issue was trying to keep everyone comfortable at night. Might have been us, but could not find a comfortable temp to keep lower level warm and upper level cool for sleeping. We have a similar issue at home so I get it. Should have probably called to get advise on that issue. Otherwise everyone (11 of us) had a great stay.
We have rented a few homes and this home was well prepared for guests. The kitchen had a nice set of dishes, glasses, mugs, dish towels and soap. Laundry machines were functional with plenty of detergent available. Plenty of bath towels and beach towels. Two of the three full bathrooms have been recently updated, the third was totally fine. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch and back screened in patio/room. There were some spaces of the house that we didn't even go into, so there was plenty of space to hang out as a family. We had a group of 10 ranging from 11-80. The location is fabulous! It's a 3 min walk into Douglas to a few restaurants and shops, then it's a bit over a mile walk (all sidewalks) into Saugatuk. We generally drove the mile, parked, and then explored Saugatuk by foot. We did need one on site repair, but it was taken care of immediately! Great service.
This comfy house played well to our family of 13 and made a great base for Fourth of July in the Douglas/Saugatu8ck area. Much time spent at Oval beach & enjoyed the food from many restaurants in the area. Our house was easy walking distance to downtown Douglas and the Kalamazoo river area. Great time!!
Nice size house for our family! Loved being close to town & the park was a big hit with the little ones. Owners were great to work with.
This house was exactly as listed and was perfect for a weekend bachelorette. It was well stocked with kitchenware, has a lovely backyard, and had lots of comfy beds. Would absolutely recommend this to anyone in need of a large space for family or friends. Easy walk to downtown Douglas and a quick drive into saugatuck!
We haven’t taken a family vacation for a while and this year we decided to take our three grown daughters and their families and stay all together. This house was perfect. We all had plenty of space and the grandkids had a blast. Best part of the trip was seeing everyone laugh and be relaxed in what felt like our home for the week.
It was a great place to stay and in a great location.
This home was perfect! Clean and had all the amenities . I loved sitting out on the screened in porch watching the squirrels chase each other up and down the big oak trees. It was private and peaceful. It was my favorite spot in the house. Even the day it rained. The kitchen and dining room were spacious for the 13 of us. The teenagers LOVED the downstairs area!! It was so cool! My husband and I stayed in the Master bedroom which was huge! The bed was comfy and the decor simple. The ensuite bathroom was perfect! The house had beach chairs and sand toys for the beach (take the Interurban shuttle to Oval beach for a dollar each way). The garage held one of our cars and the other 4 (we all arrived within a few days of one another) cars fit nicely in the driveway. The neighborhood WAS SO NEAT!! My daughters and I walked the neighborhood to downtown Douglas (quaint small area) on our way to Sailing Saugatuck to meet the rest of the gang for an afternoon sailing on The Serenity! Best day ever! I also took a short walk (twice) over to Borrowed Time to pick up some Yummy wine! Such a cute place. The company BVW makes it sound like there is nothing in this place and you have to bring everything but I was surprised to find spices, kitchen supplies left over, beach towels, chairs etc, games, blankets to snuggle in on the couch and shampoo, conditioner and lotion in the bathrooms. It was probably one of my favorite VRBOs.
