Wonderful one bedroom unit

I traveled to Saugatuck for a work conference and my husband joined me and worked remotely from the unit. The Lily Pad is exactly as described. For a small space Dawn has done an absolutely amazing job. All of the amenities you need and then some. The location is great as well. You can easily walk downtown and there is a nice walking path behind the complex. Internet service was great for working remotely. The place is absolutely immaculate and Dawn provides higher level amenities such as the bath supplies, unlike other units I have rented. As noted by other reviewers the bed is also really comfortable.

Fantastic Property!

We loved everything about this place. The decor was so pretty, the bed was super comfortable, and all of the extras that were provided (beach accessories, chairs, games) were great. The balcony was our favorite spot for morning coffee and unwinding at the end of a busy day. I came with a friend but am already planning for a return trip with my husband. Highly recommend!

Amazing place

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful unit. No detail has been overlooked, including high-end finishes in the construction of every room. All that you could ever need is in this unit, including crockpots and other small appliances. There’s even portable chairs that you can take down to the park for concerts on Wednesday nights or sand castle molds for the beach. The bed was super comfortable. The living room/kitchen combo is gorgeous and the porch is amazing in the morning or at night. The only thing I would bring would be your pillows as those are usually personal to one’s comfort. Lastly, the location and parking were also very convenient. Highly recommend the Lilly Pad!

Perfect Stay

My family and I have stayed at numerous rentals now and Dawn’s so far is my favorite. Hands down. I’m very particular and generally not comfortable away home, but this house was exceptional. It was so clean and so comfortable. We could walk everywhere but didn’t have foot traffic. It was lovely and I slept so well. Our favorite restaurants were the southerner and the farmhouse deli.

Outstanding property

This property was spotless and so well appointed! It had everything you would need and then some. The king bed was very comfortable and the size of the bedroom was very spacious. The shower is huge and there were wonderful smelling toiletries. The covered porch was wonderful anytime of day but especially delightful in the evening with the lights. Will definitely book this place again! We walked everywhere, close to everything!
