Beautiful home! Views for days! Amazing value for the price. Can have a huge group. Room and fun for everyone. Can’t say enough good things! Wonderful and communicative host!
Great home for our extended family gathering. Large rooms for gaming, dining and relaxing. Great views of Lake Michigan from every room and easy access to the beach for a bonfire, swim or walk.
The host Andrea was super easy to work with, very accommodating and hospitable!! I had my elopement here in January, and stayed the weekend afterwards for a mini honeymoon! it was cozy and warm despite the mini blizzard. We even used the hot tub and it was relaxing even in negative degrees. Will definitely be looking forward to booking again in the future during the summer! Andrea was a breeze and made our stay very easy and fun.
Beautiful one of a kind property. The location was amazingly special. Once we got there we never left the property. The beautiful little town of Saugatuck was very close by but the house and property were so amazing we just couldn’t leave. Everything we needed was right there. The house was extremely clean and comfortable. The view was like no other. We could’ve sat on the beach all day long and watched the waves and the boats come and go. We will definitely be back for an even longer stay next time!
The home is absolutely amazing. The photos really don’t do justice to the stunning beauty of the home and location. Everything we needed for our stay was provided and we had no issues. We had a family vacation for a lifetime and enjoyed every second. In addition, we highly recommend the yacht cruise. The boat and Captain Chuck are both amazing.
This was our second year staying in the home and we came back for a reason! There is no better spot to enjoy Lake Michigan, boats and the Saugatuck/Douglas area than this property. The pool was a LOVELY addition this year that we took full advantage of. The beach, sunsets and views are second-to-none. Thank you for another wonderful week on Lake MI!
Hands down the best spot along with Michigan coast for a celebration! The perfect location and accommodations for my wife's 50th bday party. To have a main and guest house works great for larger parties. Access to a chef was a treat you don't get at most properties and the beach at sunset was spectacular! Everything was easy and first class!! Thank you Andrea and Carmen!!
The only downside of our trip was not being able to stay longer! The property was incredible with one of the most beautiful views we’ve ever seen. The amenities could not have been better—from the heated pool, to the hot tub, to the beach…there was a place for everyone to enjoy with a large group. You cannot beat the expansive private beach and gorgeous sunsets. I immediately looked up potential dates for returning next year after our trip ended. It was truly special and I hope to be back here one day!
Everything about this trip was ELITE. Communication was great, the property manager/owner really cares about your stay and experience, and you can feel that. The house itself is incredible. The kitchen, dining room, bedrooms, sitting rooms, deck space, game room, guest house, all simply outstanding. The beach is less than 50 steps from the door. The views are absolutely breathtaking. Appreciated the "accessories" - the hot tub, swimming pool, grills, Keurig, pool table, ping pong table, foosball table, PS5, and even the first aid kit (whoops). Thank you for the priceless family memories, I cannot wait to stay here again!
We were so excited to rent Andrea‘s beautiful Sagautuck home overlooking gorgeous lake Michigan for our son‘s college graduation weekend. We had friends and family stay with us and the weekend was perfect! Andrea and her husband are wonderful hosts! The house could not have been more perfect, and the views are spectacular! We are a family who likes to cook and entertain, and I was blown away by how stocked the kitchen is! Every appliance known to mankind and every platter/bowl/serving piece is there to use. It is truly a special home and we are feeling very fortunate to have made wonderful memories there for our special weekend. Our friends and family had the best weekend!!!Thank you Andrea!!
Everything was wonderful with this stay except for the Wifi. It may have been because there were 12 of us but it was very weak at the guesthouse but better at the main house.
I was surprised at the big gaps between the stairs inside so we had to put gates up so our little dog wouldn't fall through. The steps are very steep leading to the beach so I didn't use them although others in my party did.
The host was responsive with my questions. The house is massive and a great place to host a family reunion or a group of friends.
An Unforgettable Experience at an Absolutely Stunning Lakefront Retreat!
From the moment we arrived, we were absolutely blown away by this incredible property. The home and its setting are even more beautiful than the photos — truly breathtaking! Designed to resemble a boat, with lots of port-type windows, outdoor decks that make you feel like you’re looking out from a cruise ship, and an abundance of good vibes, this home is truly a piece of art. It offered the most peaceful and relaxing atmosphere, allowing us to completely unwind. We all left feeling rested, rejuvenated, and completely at peace. We were initially hesitant about staying separately between the main home and guest house, but were pleased to find that the homes are conveniently connected through the lower level, which made the stay even more enjoyable.The aroma and sounds coming out of the kitchen were simply amazing. Chef Carmen Gutierrez was nothing short of amazing. Every meal was authentic — some of the best food we've ever had, hands down. The care and quality put into each dish, Carmen put our stay over the top! This is more than a place to stay; it's an experience in itself. If you're looking for luxury, tranquility, and unforgettable memories, look no further. Highly recommend!
If you are looking for a place to stay in Saugatuck or the surrounding area, stop looking now and book this property!
The kitchen is wonderful and stocked with anything you would need for your stay, however, I would recommend that you have Chef Carmen prepare meals for you when you visit. She is exceptionally talented and super nice too!
The swimming pool, hot tub, private beach with fire pit, pool table, ping pong table, and house all provide ample entertainment for your stay. If you would rather take in the view of the Kalamazoo River and Lake Michigan, try any window or seat in the house, grab a glass of wine and prepare to be amazed. Plenty of covered porches for some shade as you enjoy the panoramic views and feel the cool Michigan breeze.
I have booked many VRBO’s and Andrea was the most responsive host I have communicated with.
Finally, take some time to enjoy a ride on the yacht with Captain Chuck. The yacht is perfect and Chuck kept us in good company and was a fountain of knowledge about the area as we floated by.
I hope we make it back again to see Saugatuck…Petrichor was so perfect we didn’t want to leave! If you do love to explore and can get yourself to leave the property, the surrounding towns are quaint and beautiful with plenty of activity and the nearby state parks provide hiking trails for outdoor fun.
One criticism is…nope, can’t come up with one. Make the memories! Book the Petrichor!
Our week long visit during ‘Indian Summer’ was amazing! We were in town for a wedding that took place at a local venue. We had enough room and endless views for a few dinner parties for out of town guests and meeting the other side of the family. The owner was even gracious enough to allow a mini photo shoot of the bridal party. Breathtaking views from nearly every angle of this stunning home. The sunsets were surreal! The home is an absolute masterpiece in its design, layout and finishes.Massive wrap around decks and shaded areas with gorgeous, comfy teak furnishings. Absolutely one of the best luxury homes my husband and I ever rented! We felt quite honored to be able to experience this extremely rare setting. The house is surrounded by 7 acres of gorgeous golden dune grasses. That alone was part of the magic. The seclusion out on a dune like this is something almost impossible to find elsewhere.
The home was extremely well equipped for entertaining. Graciously supplied with just about everything you could imagine. Carmen the chef was superb and fit right in with our family and lifestyle. Chuck the boat captain was very down to earth, a true Midwesterner who made everyone feel welcomed. The owner could not have been anymore attentive and accommodating. We are already looking forward to our next visit! We also LOVED downtown Saugatuck! The charm and history were such a lovely surprise.
We had a great stay in Saugatuck. We were a group of 12 and this house gave us plenty of room for people to find their own space. Very well outfitted with everything one could want, and the location and views were spectacular!
We had a fantastic stay! The views were breathtaking! Andrea was very easy to work with both before and during our stay! This will definitely be high on our list as one of the memorable vacations ever!
This is an amazing property. Lakefront well equipped multiple kitchens. Wonderfully heated hot tub. All in all this was a great place to stay. Highly recommend.
We enjoyed an exceptional Christmas stay with our family, including adult children and young grandchildren. The host was responsive and welcoming, the home was very clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The breathtaking winter views of Lake Michigan created a peaceful and memorable backdrop for our time together.
