We spent the weekend at Carriage House for a girls trip! It was the perfect space for 8! Plenty of sleeping spaces, stocked with anything you might need in the kitchen. The outdoor space and hot tub were so nice! We could walk almost everywhere we wanted to go! Jeannie was great with suggestions and answering questions.

Jean was so accommodating, friendly, and quick to respond to messages. The property is just as pictured and we had a great time on our quick getaway. It is on the main road so I wasn't fully prepared for that as we hadn't been to the area before, but the location was perfect for a 10 minute walk to downtown - ideal because downtown parking is a challenge!

We were a group of 10 women enjoying a girls weekend in Saugatuck, MI—our first time visiting, and celebrating two milestone 50th birthdays! The home was absolutely fabulous: spacious, stylish, and perfect for a group getaway. Even better was the location—just a short walk to the heart of town with its charming shops, great restaurants, and vibrant atmosphere.The hosts were wonderful—very communicative and easy to reach, which made everything smooth and stress-free. This rental was the ideal setting for a memorable celebration and a perfect introduction to Saugatuck. Highly recommend!

Great House, Great Location

We visited Saugatuck to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary. The house was perfect for our needs. Clean, comfortable, and charming. We enjoyed the quick walk to downtown and the convenience of a great backyard, nearby beaches, mini-golf and dune buggy rides. Owners were very nice to work with. Would absolutely stay again!
