First let me start with the negatives……wait, there were NONE! If I could give 8 stars I would. Everything about our rental was fantastic, from the property itself and the owner. We’ve been renting houses for our winter getaway for the past 20 years and I can truly say this was our best. The house itself is amazing. So spread out and with our group of 37 that’s huge. The separate apartment housed our older girls. Big hit with them. I read reviews saying the kitchen was well stocked - understatement. It had everything. We wanted for nothing. Then there’s Chase, the owner. He couldn’t have been more accommodating. He responded to all my messages immediately. Wait. There was one negative aspect- we didn’t stay long enough. Next year we’re adding another day to our stay. Thank you Chase for helping us make such wonderful memories.
The house was tons of fun! Lots of space and beds. Chase was extremely responsive and made a special trip out to the house to bring us additional chairs for us all to enjoy a fire together.
Rented this for an outing of 14. The location is great! There is a winery 5 minutes away and Douglas and Saugatuck are about 15 minutes away. Even though it was too cold for the pool, the property made a great home base. The indoor basketball was a huge hit as well!
This place has an abundance of sleeping (mostly king beds), bathroom, seating, dining, and sunning spaces. Great layout and the pool was very refreshing. The privacy, especially in the pool area was awesome. Lots to do with the pool, game room, basketball court, fire pit, gazebo shade area and screened in porch. We had a fantastic stay!
The house exceeded our expectations! Fully equipped with everything you need for the kitchen, baths and bedrooms. We all enjoyed the pool, the pond for fishing and all the grounds. The second floor with 4 bedrooms and only 1 bath not ideal but we made it work. Chase was awesome to work with and responded immediately to some small issues that we had.
This property worked well for our family reunion of 18 people. We had 7 couples and 4 small children. I would not have wanted more people staying.

Family Vacation 2024
We had a great time in Fennville, Saugatuk, Douglas and Holland. Visiting each one of those places. We ate at many different places in saugatuk. The house was large enough for our 16 adults and children. We didn’t like the bedroom layout upstairs where you had to pass thru bedrooms to get to the bathroom and there is only one bathroom for all the beds upstairs. The pool was not heated and it was definitely cold in July. The apartment my daughter and her family stayed in had spiral staircase going up to the apartment which was difficult to maneuver with 2 little ones along with spiral staircase up to bedroom where they should of slept but my daughter didn’t like kids going up and down staircase. Too dangerous. They wanted their own space with children so they chose the apartment. The parking was plentiful for all our cars. We had 7 cars there usually. Outdoor pool bathroom with shower was not available as it was being remodeled. I was not aware of this until I got there and we were going to use it as a place to shower for some of adults. Also basement with washers and dryers had two sets of bunk beds which I don’t consider this a bedroom. The living room had a full size sofa and love seat for seating. Need more places for people to sit and watch TV. The owner was very quick in responding to any of my questions or needs. We would like to vacation in Saugatuk next year. The weather was absolutely gorgeous with no humidity like Ohio.
The indoor basketball court was a perfect compliment for our weekend of March Madness. We played many games of 3 on 3 basketball. We also played bags (corn hole) in the space next to the basketball court.
This indoor basketball court meant that we did not need to care about the weather at all. We were able to do everything we wanted no matter what.
We had 15 adult men, everyone had their own bed.
We explained that we wanted to have all the games on at the same time, and the host brought over a huge (65", 70" ???) TV for the dining room. (In addition to all the TVs that were already in the house) so that we could have all the games on at the same time.
Every question we had was answered quickly and accurately.
The kitchen setup with a commercial 6 burner stove and large stainless steel grill allowed us to cook for 15 men quickly and efficiently.
As a group, we did not have a single complaint.
We have a large family and rarely have get togethers. A friend described a family weekend she had recently and I loved the sound of it.
We planned a board game weekend for the family. There was 26 invited. We had a wait list of many many more. a few cancelled and those slots were easily filled.
The dining area had exceptional lighting and perfect for this gathering. The kitchen is a gourmets dream. It was better equipped than I was led to believe. (please add a garlic press to the utensil drawer)
We arrived just ahead of a January Blizzard we were snowed in for the weekend ( The property managers plowed and salted very well)
We had a murder mystery and all participated. We had score boards and a lot of fun. Everyone raved about the venue. The amenities that we did not partake like the swimming pool looked amazing.
Refrigerator space aplenty.
Only one bathroom in the upper level was a small inconvenience for showering. But bedrooms were assigned accordingly to provide privacy. The bedroom containing the loft makes it necessary to pass through a bedroom to get to but with proper thought it caused no problems.
Several of our guests have suggested renting this same venue again and possibly in the summer. But it really was a perfect winter retreat.
(hot tub outside of basement walk out might be nice in winter addition )
Birthday weekend stay for my oldest daughter! More then enough room....beautiful home and decore! Chase was awesome, and answered our calls and questions in a very timely manner, before, during and after our stay. The home made us feel at home and so did he. We could not thank you enough for allowing us to make good memories at your property! We look forward to seeing you again soon!
Opportunity for several family members coming from all areas of the country to celebrate a 90th birthday. This was the perfect location within airport distance and amenities were awesome. The communication with Chase was always efficient and quick. Enjoyed working with him. This property has tremendous opportunity and would love to go back.
Very spacious, unique rental for our group of 20 (adults & kids). Some of our favorite things about the house included the big dining space, ping pong table in basement, firepit, pool, and wrap around porch with great views of the pond. We also enjoyed the nearby wineries and it was a quick drive to Saugatuck.
Our family stayed here and had a most relaxing vacation. The pool is big, clean and beautiful. The house had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to host all 20 of us. We had fun playing sports on the huge flat grounds and in the indoor basketball court/gym. There was plenty of space for mealtime for the 20 of us. Any questions we had were promptly answered by texting our host. We wish we could stay longer. Will definitely hope to come back next summer!
The location and the kitchen dining room was great along with the property and pool. The sleeping arrangements are a little different but worked out well my family is close.
We had a larger group so hotels were out of the question due to cost! We loved being able to have a place for everyone to stay and play as well as making all our own meals! Although, the location allows for excellent dining options in the local small towns around the property. The pool area was both fun and relaxing, with a large pool, outdoor restroom, fountain, and beautiful view of the pond all in one space! We spent our evenings on the porch soaking in the family time and gorgeous setting. The kids had a blast playing in the pool, barns, and vast property (they told us they never wanted to leave)! We look forward to making this a yearly vacation spot!
