Loved this location!!

The condo was great for our family. We loved the living room space and outdoor table. The location to Saugatuck is amazing. We walked everywhere and loved the spot so much. We had one issue- not the owners fault- and the communication was very quick and helpful. (Something fell off a wall in the middle of the night!)Our only complaint was the mattress in the bigger bedroom. I’ve never felt a harder mattress. I highly recommend this property but bring a pillow top cover for the king bed!!!All that to say, we would book the again.

Very nice place!

Everything was perfect. Very nicely equipped probably the best I've seen. I had to say one negative remark and it was not even a big deal... the 50 stairs or the hill walk to town was our only issue.

Great Condo

Everything is exactly as pictured! This is a condo that is easily walkable to downtown (helpful when parking is challenging). The back patio is relaxing with a glimpse of the water. Their guidebook is helpful if you’ve never visited the area. We did have one maintenance issue, but we’re able to quickly get help and feedback from the managing company.

Great Location

Great stay, condo as described and pictured. Very well appointed. However as previous review indicated there is something amiss with the master bed. Box spring or headboard is so loud and creaky it was uncomfortable to make the slightest move without waking other person.

Perfect Location and Comfortable

My sisters and I enjoyed the Condo very much, a great location for walkability and was one of the best well stocked homes we have ever stayed in, ideal for cooking a meal and having everything you would ever need (including spices)!! Very comfortable beds even the pullout chairs to beds were comfy! Would definitely book again if we find ourselves back in Saugatuck area.

a few things

Beautiful and comfortable furniture and artwork. Our main concerns were: Nowhere to store food in kitchen; shower floor extremely slippery; very poor lighting in master bath; couch in front of the master closet; and bottom step very difficult to see when coming downstairs (a rug would help there). We had a great stay. These are really just comments for the owners to know.
