Very charming cottage close to town
The back patio and garden were very tranquil, and the cottage was cozy and well-stocked with everything we needed. Wilma greeted us warmly as soon as we pulled up and let us know she was available if we needed anything. The cottage was tucked back on a quiet drive but a very short walk to all shops and restaurants.

Phenomenal location and hospitality!
We couldn’t have asked for a better stay than at the Lark! Upon arrival, Wilma was there to greet us and tell us about the history of the cottage and her beautiful gardens. The cottage itself was absolutely darling and made for a cozy long weekend stay for my partner and I. It is about a 10-15 minute walk from the main drag in Saugatuck and we enjoyed having that convenient access to dining and shopping. Overall, we would gladly stay at the Lark again and thoroughly recommend it to others!

Cozy and comfortable cabin with beautiful backyard.
We very much enjoyed our stay. We brought our ebikes so the location was great since we could easily ride our bikes to either downtown Saugatuck or Douglas. While the cabin is basically one big room and a bathroom we had enough room. It would have been nice to have a stove to cook breakfast on. We did use the small refrigerator and microwave for lunches.

Adorable Cottage
This cottage was small but clean and perfect for two people. Backyard was very pretty. Short walk into town. I would note that the cottage is just to the left of the main house. We were confused when we arrived but Wilma met us and was very gracious. She told us all about the cottage and how it was on the lake and moved to the current location. There are a lot of interesting pictures within the cottage. We would definitely return.

Adorable Little Cottage
This was a great little cottage for an affordable romantic weekend getaway without the kids! The cottage is definitely tiny, but for two people that enjoy each other and that plan to spend the days elsewhere, it’s perfect. The garden area is beautiful. It’s shared with the main house, but the privacy screening made it feel like it was all ours. We never saw the owner other than at church in and check out. The only minor inconveniences that would be worth noting that made this a 4 star not 5 star for us is that the shower hot water tank must be very small because there isn’t enough for much more that a quick shower, and there isn’t actually a microwave - it’s a toaster oven, which is more limited in what can be heated up. Generally though, it was fantastic for what we paid, the owner made great use of the tiny space. It’s walking distance to town, but well beyond the busy and loud of downtown. It’s nice and secluded but convenient to everything. A great option!
