Great home

Had a great time staying here with my family. Location is just a few minutes walk from the shops in Douglass. Even more shops are close by in Saugatuck. Home was clean, in good working order. Kitchen was better stocked than most we have seen. All in all, a wonderful place to stay.

Great location for our family.

We had a family wedding at The Ravines and The Ivy House. This property was in the perfect location to those venues; plus walked to downtown Douglas and a 4 minute drive to downtown Saugatuck. The property had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to choose from for us. We had three couples and a single. The home was well stocked with dishes, glasses, silverware, cooking items (though we ate out) etc..

MI vacation

The house is in a great location, you can walk to downtown Douglas, a short drive to Saugatuck and Holland - and several beaches. The open kitchen, dining and living space were great for our group and the backyard is lovely! We cooked several meals and the well stocked kitchen was appreciated!

Perfect Girls Weekend Stay

Five long term friends ages late 60’s to 70’s enjoyed 4 days in this beautifully appointed house with all first class stocking. The house has a roof deck overlooking the lake and a backyard with a fire pit. The modern kitchen is well stocked with all drawers and cabinets labeled. 6 bedrooms with nice quality bedding and bathrooms with plush towels! Property manager is a dream for any issues you have. Quick service with a pleasant resolve. Highly recommend as being a perfect choice for larger groups and families.

Perfect Meeting Venue

This was a perfect setting for a 2-day executive retreat with rooms for each member and great space and lighting for long meetings. The nearby restaurants provided a much needed break from the long focused days of planning and vision casting. The property is beautifully maintained with a spectacular view of the lake.

Douglas Vacation

Wonderful home that comfortably housed 14 adults for a weekend. Located in Douglas MI - you could walk to restaurants and shopping. The home had everything we needed for our vacation. Loved the rooftop patio and the private backyard patio with fire pit. Host was very communicative with check in and out process. Very modern and sleek home!

Nice Stay in downtown Douglas, large space and nice amenities!

Enjoyed the stay here but stayed during the off season to be close to a house we are building across the street from here (so not your typical customer). It is a rather large place (probably too much for just one couple) but it is clean and modern, and the owner communicates very well and the check-in/check-out process is/was very smooth/straightforward. Best part of this place is the location, the wonderful large TV in the living room, and the upstairs deck. Internet has good speed, good water pressure for the shower we used and we enjoyed using the coffee maker. Things to improve on: -Probably best to get an ice machine, to make it easier to dispense and use ice, the trays and what was provided weren't in the best shape. -The fitted sheets for the king size bed were small and were coming off too easily. Probably just need to get better sheets that fit. -Would love to have had a fireplace, but I did see you had a firepit outside which was fine. Thank you again!

Perfect Girl’s Weekend

The place was pretty much perfect, the beds were comfy and clean, and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need! You also have a beautiful outdoor space and a lake view! My only comment would be that it would be smart to upgrade to a code entry instead of 1 key because we had people wanting to come home at different times. But overall I would HIGHLY recommend this place for a large group.

Fabulous Spot for a Friendscation!

The Douglas modern villa is an incredibly well-appointed home full of every amenity needed for a great vacation. The kitchen was the perfect place for our group of old friends to gather and cook delicious meals. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and modern. The rooftop deck offers a beautiful view of the water, the backyard has a patio and firepit. The proximity to Douglas village is excellent. We enjoyed strolling into town for coffee, meals, gallery tours. It’s also super close to Saugatuck and all of its offerings. We would definitely return!

Wonderful place

There were 15 adults in our group - plenty of room for all of us for meals and conversation! Very clean. Sleeping accommodations were great - just be aware that the futon in the basement is barely a double size bed. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans and just about anything you could want in a kitchen and plenty of tableware - all cupboards were labeled! Worked out very well for our group.

Well organized and well appointed home in a fantastic location! Easy walk to both Douglas and Saugtuck and everything you need for your stay. We stay in lots of VRBO’s and this one is great. We traveled after Christmas with family ranging from 10 to adult and everyone was comfortable. We would love to come back in the summer when we can take advantage of the rooftop area.

The house was great for our group of friends and family. There was plenty of room for everyone and the house was very clean. We enjoyed the rooftop seating and fire pit in the backyard. The kitchen was very well stocked which made it easy to make large meals. We were able to walk to shops in downtown Douglas (including the Root Beer Barrel and Upscale Mercantile). Would definitely stay here again!

Great Weekend Getaway in Douglas

We stayed at the Douglas Modern Villa for a long weekend with 8 guys. We were in the area for an annual golf trip. This was the perfect property for our group. The pictures do not do it justice. The house is very large and well maintained. There was enough room for most everyone to have their own space. A few of us shared the bedroom with 3 twin beds, but it was comfortable. The yard is also massive with a great patio and fire pit. The neighborhood area seemed secluded and is very quiet. The house is just a short walk to the water and downtown Douglas. The walk to Sagatuck is reasonable (less than 1 mile). If you have a large group, consider this house! You won't be disappointed.
