About this property

Cabernet Cottage minutes away from downtown & Oval beach! Hot Tub/Bonfire/Patio

Charming cottage located in the heart of beautiful Saugatuck. Cabernet Cottage, with its 4 bedrooms, 2 ½ baths, private backyard with a hot tub and generous patio space, appeals to guests looking for a place to relax outdoors but still close to all the shopping, restaurants and entertainment downtown Saugatuck has to offer.

The main floor bedroom boasts a Queen bed and beautiful morning light through two large East facing windows. Three guest bedrooms and a half bath occupy the upstairs and include Queen beds in two rooms and two Twin beds in the other.

The living room which is bright and open to the kitchen is complete with a large incredibly comfortable sectional couch, tv and fireplace. The kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances and is accommodating to cooking meals for the group. Off the kitchen is a formal dining room which opens up to one of the two outside decks.
Opening from the kitchen are full length glass french doors that draw you out to the hot tub and accompanying deck. The bricked patio space seats eight and is complemented wonderfully by a gas grill.
Enjoy smores on bonfire located on the side of the house, as shown in pictures.

Cabernet Cottage is great as a homebase for enjoying downtown Saugatuck only a half mile away and renowned Oval Beach only 5-7 minutes away by car. There is enough space to play outside during the day, grill out or just relax with a glass of wine and at night have a stress relieving soak in the hot tub.

Hot tub is available all year round. Coach house by the patio, used mostly for storage, is not guaranteed for availability.
We have a local professional cleaning company that cleans for us and a local laundry facility that cleans our linens for every reservation. Assuring you of a clean home for your stay.

Great Place to Stay Near Town
House is spacious and well appointed. Location is very close, but not too close to shops and restaurants. Owner was super helpful with returning a forgotten item left behind!

Cabernet cottage in Saugatuck
Seven family members stayed for 4 nights and had a fine time with other relatives in Saugatuck. Communication with property mgr. was fine for a small issue. Have stayed here previously 2 years ago and was happy with our stay again this time.

second girls' weekend at this house!
We had an excellent weekend (again) that included hot tubbing, cooking, walks downtown and a trip to the beach. Too cold to swim in October but Lake Michigan is always a treat and only a 13 minute drive!

Super cute and clean cottage close to shops and water. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for 5 adults. We enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor space . We wished we had one more night to enjoy the fire pit. We will definitely use the Cabernet Cottage in the future

Family Fun in Saugatuck
We enjoyed our stay at the Cabernet Cottage, a clean and quaint place with a great backyard and close location to downtown Saugatuck. Lots of activity options for kids and adults. Oval beach is a short drive from the cottage, and visiting Holland and going for a ride in the sand dunes were highlights! Highly recommend Cabernet Cottage.

The Cabernet Cottage is perfect for my family - 5 adults, 2 children, and 1 teen! We especially like the patio area with the hot tub and fire pit. We can walk downtown and we all don’t have to be doing the same thing.

Already booked for next year!
This house was perfect for our group of four and would be comfortable with more. It was stocked for us to cook easily. The hot tub was great and easy to manage. And it’s a 10 minute walk to downtown. Before we left, we booked it again for next year!

Charming getaway
Lovely house with a nice yard. A fun bonus was the separate bungalow out back. My husband and I were able to sneak in a movie in peace while the kids slept in the main house. Easy walk to downtown restaurants too.

Lovely little bungalow
Basic but charming bungalow near town with lovely yard/ backyard patio area and hottub. The stairs to the second floor are a bit steep and the walls thin, but everything else about this sweet home is comfortable and easy. Great place for a get together with good friends or close family

Annual family vacation
We loved staying at this cottage. It had plenty of space for all of us to sleep and play games. The outside patio and hot tub were so much fun for everyone. It was very clean and the owner left extra supplies that we may have forgotten to bring. This cottage was located right by downtown saugatuck and very close to oval beach. The owner was very quick to respond when I had a question. I highly recommend this cottage to any group of people. Thanks Kim for a great week!

Perfect Fall Weekend
Our group of friends had the absolute best time at Cabernet Cottage! The photos very accurately portray the property and the backyard is the piece de resistance. Fireplace, grill, comfortable seating, hot tub, and the most cozy ambiance imaginable. We were spoiled by the fall foliage and warm glow of string lights while relaxing in the hot tub. Bonus deck off the dining room as well! Cottage is located ideally 10-15 min walk from downtown and the best breakfast place, Pennyroyale Cafe. Hosts had a very helpful book explaining how to use everything in the house and check out process. Book the Cabernet Cottage, you willl not regret it!

The Perfect Location
The Cabernet House was very clean and pleasant! On top of that the location was key!! A quick walk to all of the downtown shops and activities-you never have to spent your time driving or looking for a parking spot! The hot tub was very well kept and clean as well as that was a nice wrap up to are evenings. I would definitely stay again and recommend to others!!

About the host

Hosted by Kim

Host profile image
My name is Kim and I live with a husband and 3 adorable kids. I love nature, biking, hiking, having fun at the beach or playing outside on the lawn. Saugatuck reminds me of an European city and that's why I decided to have a vacation home here.

Why they chose this property

I have searched for many places near the lake and stopped when I found Cabernet Cottage in Saugatuck. It has an amazing feel of home; it's cozy, warm and inviting. It also has a great front yard area, where I like to play outdoor games with kids or friends. It also has a large patio area with a grill and bonfire and 5 person hot tub, where we can relax after busy day.

What makes this property unique

I love the charm of Saugatuck and you will love it too. At my cottage you will be able to relax, host a party, get away with friends or simply have a family gathering. Nearby restaurants, closeness to the beach, wineries or several golf courses makes the Cabernet Cottage a perfect spot for anyone.
