The Neighborhood:
Welcome to the charming town of Saugatuck!

The SaugaBuck House is located just a five minute drive into town. Enjoy strolling Butler Street and hitting all the restaurants and shops this quaint town has to offer. From Saugatuck's famous art galleries to locally roasted coffee, jam and jelly shops. There is no shortage of fabulous places to ignite the senses. Saugatuck allows open container in the "social district" off Butler and Water Streets. Enjoy a beverage from one of the local watering holes and feel free to bring it with you as you walk the riverfront.

Get outside and enjoy the nature that the area has to offer! With two kayaks and two paddleboards that come included with your stay, you walk down to your private beach and hop in the Kalamazoo River. After an afternoon on the water, head back to the house to fire up the grill. Enjoy dinner at the large dining table inside or have a more casual dining experience by the campfire(BYOWood). There are so many activities at home base but when you are ready to check out the neighborhood you can head to one of the many trails/beaches in the area. Take a drive over to Oval Beach where the sand literally squeaks under your feet or head to the Saugatuck Dunes State Park for a super scenic hike through the dunes where the trees eventually open up to a view of Lake Michigan. Local wineries with tasting rooms are plentiful in the area just in case you were wanting to expand your knowledge or just experience something new.

While staying at an Upscale Lakeshore vacation home, you will enjoy nearby access to Lake Michigan and all the unsalted coast has to offer. Whether it’s spring, summer, fall and or winter, there is something for everyone to enjoy! From hiking and mountain biking to kayaking and paddle boarding, there are plenty of outdoor activities to choose from. And if you are visiting during the winter months, be sure to try out a wintery hike at the beach, snowshoeing and or cross-country skiing along the lakeshore.

You'll find a more detailed list of tried and true local recommendations upon check in.

Comfortable and peaceful!

What a beautiful setting and so much room. Even with all of the space, it was still very cozy. Each room has a special feel and offers pockets of space to get away to relax if you want or space for a group to play games. Lots of space outside as well with beautiful views! Loved it all!

Another nice stay

This is our second time staying at the property. It looks like they have done a light refresh of some of the furnishings since we last stayed. Everything was very clean, kitchen is well stocked, lots of towels and washcloths. If I were to improve on anything about the property I'd refresh the wood floors and carpet and maybe remodel the upstairs bathroom to include a larger shower stall..its pretty small! Overall a nice property with beautiful sunset views.

Great for large family gatherings

We are a family of 12, made up of 8 adults and 4 children between the ages of 17 and 10. This house was conveniently located to town and had a lot of space to accommodate all of us in the evenings and the during the days. It had the right mix of group space and pockets for individual escape.
