Our host Micheal was wonderful! The dishes were clean and while not a full kitchen there was enough to make simple meals with a single burner and toaster oven. It was close to everything we could want to do in Saugatuck which is a definite plus. Unique and overall comfortable place to stay.

Everything was perfection! From the ease of check-in, to the cleanliness, to the wonderful insight, friendliness & recommendations of our contact person, Michael, to the central location of Saugatuck. It was a delightfully unique space located above The Butler Pantry which had a fabulous selection of coffee, wine, and delicious provisions. This has been, by far, my favorite Vrbo stay and I couldn't recommend it high enough.

Great spot in Downtown Saugatuck

Second visit here and once again it rocked! Nothing better than wandering downtown Saugatuck during the day (and evening without worrying about parking). A short drive to the beach as well as surrounding towns.

Why you should stay here

A centrally located property in Downtown Saugatuck. This place is tidy and has everything you need for your stay. A full size fridge comes in handy with storing your beverages and leftovers ! The property manager is accessible if need be. Beds are comfortable and the showers are like home. Downstairs is The Butler Pantry for your coffee if you forgot to bring your own. You don't need to move your car since you can walk to most places. This place was just like described and we were fortunate to find this gem ! We will definitely want to come back and stay here again.

Great Loft

We have stayed here several times. Great loft looking over Butler. Walk to everything. Very relaxing, and the history of the building and lots of items inside the loft are really interesting. Good communication with management.

Girls weekend

We had a wonderful time. The Interurban is a great way to get around if you don’t want to drive. We went for a hike, shopped, had amazing food, relaxed and even went to the comedy den at Coral Gables. The apartment was everything we needed!!!

Exactly what we were looking for!

This place is quirky and cozy and close to everything. It was just what we needed for a quiet getaway out of the city. While it could probably use a deep clean, my family and I loved our stay.
