The home was perfectly clean, fully stocked and beautifully decorated. You could sit and view Lake Michigan from the dining room, two bedrooms, upstairs large porch and downstairs large porch. Beds were all comfortable. Short drives to Saugatuck or South Haven and to delicious cidery/winery. The beach sand area was small and had a lot of debris but we didnt need it and enjoyed the view. Would love to stay here again and highly recommend.
A very cute little home near the towns of Saugatuk and Douglas with romantic views of lake Michigan. Feels remote while still very accessible. Owners supplied cord wood which was very handy for the fire pit one chill late October evening.
The house and surrounding property are so much more beautiful in person than the pictures suggest. The house and property have a simple elegance that let's nature stand out in all its glory. The view of the sunset over the water was absolutely gorgeous from the balconies, the yard, and the master bedroom. I don't think there's a more beautiful view of the sunset anywhere. And the sound of the waves was so relaxing especially in the morning with a hot cup of coffee. When we first walked into the house we noticed how emaculately clean the whole house was. The white kitchen and bathrooms were spotless. The bedrooms were perfect as was the rest of the house. The kitchen and dining area was our favorite place to congregate. There was plenty of room to cook and enjoy conversation with others. And the large window in the dining area made the space so bright and provided a nice view of Lake Michigan. For us, the house was perfect. And we plan on coming back next year. I should mention the stairs in the house and the stairs going down to the beach are quite steep. Some people who have difficulty with stairs may have some difficulty navigating the stairs at this property. All the bedrooms are upstairs. So, there's no way to avoid the stairs.
We were looking or a quiet location with views and lake access and this house didn’t disappoint. Well decorated and spacious but still a cozy retreat. Just a short drive to town and other nearby spots like breweries and apple orchards. What a find!
The home was vey cozy. It was a cool, rainy weekend and the fireplace was appreciated. We all slept great. The cons: The water has a terrible smell. The fruit flies and flies, throughout the house, were very annoying. Overall, I would recommend this house.
We were amazed at the view of Lake Michigan from the house and yard. The house is updated and well supplied. We had everything we needed, including a dry stack of firewood to use at the fire pit. The location is private and conveniently located to attractions. We will be staying again!
Great views. Updated home. Hope to visit again.
The house is a great property with the perfect location between South Haven and Saugatuck. We loved access to the beach, the fire pit, and all of the house amenities including the comfortable beds, kitchen, and fireplace.
To anyone looking for a great getaway, you will not be disappointed. I could see my sisters and I choosing this house again. It truly was a wonderful experience.
Location was great…beautiful views of the lake!
This home (and private beach) was absolutely lovely! Everything was so clean and beautiful, and the listing pictures did not fully do it justice. It was a luxurious stay in such a pretty place for our family of four. The beach and neighborhood were quiet, and you could walk forever without meeting another soul. We were very blessed to stay here This home had everything we wanted!
We stayed at this house for a post-Christmas winter getaway, and it did not disappoint! The house is right on the water, with incredible views of the lake from the kitchen and 2 of the bedrooms. All of the bedrooms are a good size, and the primary is especially spacious with a great en suite bathroom. The kitchen is phenomenally well-stocked (the best of any VRBO we have ever stayed in), and we enjoyed making meals there. Previous reviews mentioned the squeaky floors, and it is true they are somewhat loud (probably some more throw rugs would help), but they weren’t a big issue for us. The house is in a very quiet, picturesque neighborhood and well-located for day trips to Saugatuck, South Haven, Fennville and Holland. We also enjoyed walks in the neighborhood (saw lots of deer!) and on the frozen beach as well. We would definitely return here again!
Overlook was immaculate, comfortable, and well appointed. We had a relaxing stay, wanting for nothing! Highly recommend.
We really enjoyed our stay. Just me my husband and our 3 kids went for a week. The house is exactly how you see it on the listing and very clean. The view is beautiful. It’s 79 stair steps down to the sand (yes we counted) but even my nearly 3 year old handled that trek multiple times. The beach is rocky so bring swim shoes. The house is in a perfect location between Saugatuck and Sourh Haven so it’s very easy to explore the area without driving too far which was a nice treat since we did have a few unfavorable swim weather days. The only other thing I’d say about the house is that the well water is pretty potent and the floors are very squeaky so if one person wakes up early, they’re bound to wake the whole house. I would stay here again. Super quiet and peaceful at this beach front property. Definitely feels like you’re escaping the world :)
Some actual beach access, and great sunsets. Close to Douglas/Saugatuck, but also in a very quiet community right on the shoreline. Great fire pit and nice renovated house! Can't wait to return!
This little house is perfect for a little family getaway. The lake view is breathtaking! We stayed for four nights ? It was so relaxing. Each evening we drove to Saugatuck to eat. We spent most of our time at the house by the water. It's very worth the money.
We had a wonderful vacation here! The house was beautifully updated (and very clean) and the view was the absolute best. The location was great because we could pick whether we wanted to go to Saugatuck or South Haven. We would totally go back!
This is the perfect getaway home! The view of the Lake Michigan is phenomenal, the house is extremely clean and newly updated. We loved how remote the home felt yet so close to South Haven and Saugatuck. I would rent this place again in a heartbeat!
Very clean and cozy home. Loved the views.
A good getaway. The house is clean and comfortable and situated on the Lake. Since it was cold and windy, we enjoyed the warmth of the fireplace. Location is between South Haven and Douglas/Saugatuck. A heads up: The sulphur smell of the water is very strong and needs treatment. Very creaky but nice, refinished floors. We enjoyed our time in the house, watching the waves of the lake and the sunset.
