    Excellent property, well maintained and in a great location. The online description should say the 3rd bedroom and second bathroom are ABOVE the DETACHED garage. This could really mess up a family with small kids. Also detailed instructions for the heat in the 3rd bedroom should be included.

    Our family loved staying at The Sharlene! It was the cutest upscale cottage in the quaintest neighborhood. The check in could not have been easier. We loved Douglas and Saugatuck! It was in a perfect location close to everything. The house had a beautifully landscaped and fenced in yard with hot tub and private deck. There was a finished extra bedroom and bathroom over the garage. The inside was very nicely decorated and very clean. The kitchen was well stocked and had quality appliances. The bathrooms had more than enough plush towels. It was perfect and we will definitely be staying there again. It's a very lovely home.
