There were lots of spaces in the house and outside (fire pit and long table) for us to gather as a group. We cooked most days and the kitchen facilities were great. Walk or drive to Lake Michigan beaches (1 to 1.6 miles), Saugatuck (1.7 miles) and Douglas ( 1 mile), Area was great - loved the fireworks on July 5th, Dunes Rides, Root Beer Floats at the Barrel and lattes at Woosah but mostly the amazing memories we made with our family just hanging out playing games and catching up for the week.

Perfect house set in Winter wonderland was so exceptional for a cozy, extremely relaxed weekend. Grandparents, Siblings our families all had ample space to lounge and play. The fire place was stoked, ping pong balls flying, something delicious always cooking. Kids loved the basement and game area. Kitchen had everything (and more) to feed the whole gang. We were very impressed with the loving construction, thoughtful design, piles of games, surrounding neighborhoods, and amenities that made this a perfect stay. Long weekend spent reconnecting with each other, both indoors and out. Kids played in the snowy yard for hours while adults stayed warm by the fire watching football, reading, and puzzling. We loved dropping into South Haven, Douglas, Saugatuck, and surrounding nature havens to experience a picturesque Winter. ##### Colleen W.

Four generations gathered to celebrate my dad’s 90th birthday. There was plenty of space to gather or spread out. Through creative seating, we were able to have 29 attendees in the kitchen at the birthday dinner. The game room was a big hit as was the fire pit. My dad and wife enjoyed the slightly more private accommodations of the keeper’s house. The pictures don’t do justice to the downstairs “sofa” beds…they are full size, firm and comfortable. The hosts have provided for every creature comfort one could ask for when on vacation. They were VERY responsive to questions and offered lots of good suggestions for local restaurants and places to visit. Many of the more midwestern guests said they will definitely look to use the house in the future. We have all done a lot of vacation home rentals and this house was an exceptional value. ##### Leda P. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian K.

Our family had a delightful stay at the Douglas Boathouse. We've never stayed in a vacation rental that provided so many conveniences from large numbers and types of Yeti mugs and cups to an entire basket of charging cords. The kitchen is well furnished with everything you can possibly think of. Everyone enjoyed the game room, as well as our time around the fire pit. It's in a lovely, quiet area that's convenient to everything. We also appreciated all of the beach chairs! There was plenty of seating for meals both indoors and out for our large group. The owners went above and beyond in providing so many extras that made our stay comfortable. Our only recommendation is that the doors could use some lubrication to get rid of the squeaks so early risers don't wake up others.

REVIEW: 5 STARS The Douglas Boathouse was amazing for our family weekend trip! Located in a beautiful, quiet area that is walking distance to the beach and some fun stores/restaurants. Staying here, you are minutes away from any activity desired during your stay. Honestly, we loved the house so much we ended up staying in more than we planned. This house is so well-equipped and thought out, it really makes staying here as a guest feel like home! The owner’s close attention to detail makes your stay effortless: Wi-Fi, music system throughout the house, streaming services, toiletries, activities, games, fully equipped kitchen, etc. The house was very clean, spacious and comfortable for entertaining groups of all sizes. Our group throughly enjoyed the game room and the beautiful backyard fire pit sitting area. We hope to be back again! Thanks so much for having us! ##### Angella M.
