Good for a weekend stay
I'd give it 6 stars for location if I could. Just at the edge of downtown and you feel like a vip with reserved driveway parking. The place is pretty basic but had everthing we needed for our stay. The only negative was the outdoor space which was overgrown and neglected - not inviting at all.

Great Location and space, but...
I want to tread carefully here, because this is NOT a terrible review. First, the positives. The location can not be beat. If you plan on spending the day in town, you can walk everywhere. The inside of the cottage was very clean, and the kitchen, laundry, and bedroom were very well- stocked. It was just my husband and me, and although a king bed would have been more comfortable, the queen was just fine. The location was quiet and secluded. Some observations: having to go down steep stairs in the middle of the night to use the washroom was not ideal. The furniture was on the older side and only the couch was "loungable." The TV was very small and YouTube TV is not user- friendly. Plus we couldn't figure out how to get live news or sports. No instructions were given. Both the inside and outside of the cottage needs a good paint job. The patio tables and chairs in the deck were so dirty they were not usable, and the deck and backyard needs serious maintenance work. Broken gate latch and fence, uneven, hazardous ground, etc. This place has such great potential, but needs some updating and TLC.

Great location
We loved the location of the property and the space felt much larger than it looked in pictures. The patio is beautiful and secluded, but unfortunately the mosquitoes in the evening made it very uncomfortable - despite a citronella candle and bug spray. The main issue was the pull out couch - mattress was thin and very uncomfortable, and the sheets had rips in them. I would recommend this property again but only to those who don’t plan to use the couch as a sleeping space.

Great cozy house right in the downtown area
Although this place is right downtown, it is a quiet, lovely place. It is one of the cleanest places we've ever stayed, especially the things in the kitchen. Very comfortable and very easy to access everything in Sagatuck.

This is a cute little cottage that is just as pictured and suited our needs perfectly.. My only comment would be that the bathroom is not designed well for putting on makeup or doing hair, but I made it work and it wouldn’t stop me from staying again. The location is perfect for a stay in Saugatuck. We would definitely recommend this property.
