Douglas Drift cottage was a great choice for our girls getaway weekend! Thank you Peri for assistance with after hours check in. The cottage was very clean! It was beautifully decorated. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to “eat in”. Just a short drive to Saugatuck for lots of shopping.

Great place, but. . .

The house is awesome. It was great for our family. I do think the extra fees were a bit too much. Also, the check out time was too early. I would probably not recommend this place because of those two things.
