About this property

Wooded Retreat - Steps to the Lake - Close to Town

  • Fox Eagle Dunes; 6 Bedrooms, 4 baths, plus additional sleeping accommodations. Comfortably sleeps up to 16.

    Secluded home in Fennville / Saugatuck just steps to Lake Michigan! This well-appointed, spacious 6 bedroom, 4 bath home is tastefully decorated and fully equipped for comfort and convenience. Oriented on a 1.75 acre wooded lot, this home offers a private setting with several outdoor spaces and beautifully landscaped grounds.

    Located just 7 miles from the shops, restaurants, & art galleries of Saugatuck and Douglas, this 4200 sq. ft. home has all the amenities you could desire for a comfortable and adventurous vacation.

    Lake Access:
    Lake Michigan public access for shore walking is just a short walk away (stairs)(0.3 mile walk). It is part of our area homeowner’s association. It is just an access point. The beach areas are privately owned but are available to you for shore-walking. Another access point is Pier Cove (2.2 miles) which is lake accessible for shore-walking. West Side County Park (3.0 miles) has a great picnic and grilling area.
    The BEST beach experience is Oval Beach in Saugatuck (7 miles). Celebrated for its beautiful sweep of shoreline and backdrop of rolling dunes, this is the main beach in town. Its impressive pedigree of awards (Condé Nast Traveler’s Top 25 Beaches in the World, National Geographic Traveler’s Top Freshwater Beaches in the USA, and MTV’s Top 5 Beaches in the USA) is testament to its status as a summertime favorite and natural beauty spot. There are concessions, a picnic area, and adjacent parking and NO STAIRS! Something for everyone.
    Another access point for shore walking is Douglas Beach Park at 3099 Lakeshore Dr, Douglas. There are also picnic tables and grills.
    If you are up for a hike, there is Saugatuck Dune State park. There are several trails and they all end at the beach. It is mostly used for picnics, walking, etc.

    Exterior
    A long private drive accesses the peaceful wooded setting with the sounds of Lake Michigan shores close by. A spacious rear deck offers serenity, wooded views, outdoor cooking and dining. Relax in the screened porch or around the outdoor fire pit and enjoy the secluded privacy.
