Welcome to the charming town of Saugatuck!

From Saugatuck's famous art galleries to locally roasted coffee, jam and jelly shops. There is no shortage of fabulous places to ignite the senses. Saugatuck allows open container in the "social district" off Butler and Water Streets. Enjoy a beverage from one of the local watering holes and feel free to bring it with you as you walk the riverfront.
Get outside and enjoy the nature that the area has to offer! If you're looking for a little pep step, there is a plethora of wooded foot and bike trails that lead to the beach where you can find gorgeous sunsets. Bring your own bicycles or rent one nearby for the week for easy access into town or just a 20 minute bike ride to The Saugatuck Dunes State Park. Here you can hike straight through to the most idyllic beach. Take on the climb of the infamous Mount Baldhead and head down the other side on a dune that takes you straight to Oval Beach. The list of activities goes on and on.

This house perfectly met our needs. The screened in sun porch is fantastic- if only the weather had been a bit warmer! The kitchen had everything we needed. We walked into town and the Southerner is even closer. Their fried chicken was delicious. Would definitely come back!

Very clean with well stocked kitchen. It was nice to have a third bathroom with 3 couples staying. We enjoyed the screened in back porch but because it was so warm out, it would have been nice to have a ceiling fan in the porch area. We would definitely stay here again if we come back to Saugatuck.

Amazing screened in porch
The house was great. We gathered in the screened in porch for coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening. It was the perfect spot. It was like being in a tree house.

Great place, great location
We all absolutely loved our stay at Nesting Nook! The location was perfect, the home was clean and was outfitted with everything you could need away from home making it so much more comfortable. The home is an old one made new again, retaining character with some creaking and quirky floors but with decor and finishes bringing it up to date with a perfectly stocked kitchen, comfortable beds with clean and crisp linens, bathroom towels that are wonderfully large, soft and thick and many little extra special things included. The floor creaks did not bother us one bit but I feel a review needs to be open and honest, so if considering a stay here and that is something that would be bothersome it’s being disclosed. The large enclosed and covered back deck/porch was lovely with very nice furniture and an extremely nice view of a woodsy and watery area. The neighborhood is very quiet and well kept and super close to town and weather permitting is walkable which is another bonus. We were in Saugatuck looking at wedding venues, which was successful and had such a wonderful and relaxing time! We all look forward to being back out this way in October of 2025 to celebrate a beautiful union and will without a doubt look into staying at Nesting Nook again!
