In the early 1920s, Herman Bekken opened the H.M. Bekken Horseshoeing & General Repairing. As one of three blacksmiths in the region, Herman's skills were used to repair all types of plows, wagons, mowing machines, and sleighs. Folks would bring in their tools to get sharpened and the local farmers would come in to have their horses shoed. With the forge's raging hot fire and anvil, Herman was also able to make his own tools such as hammers, tongs, and vices. Herman and his wife, Jennie, lived above The Shop where they raised their four children: Everett, Howard, Mildred, and Gerald. Herman retired from blacksmithing in 1960 and passed away in 1963\. Jennie lived upstairs until her passing in 1985\. That's when The Shop building was handed down to their youngest son Gerald. The blacksmith business was no longer in operation, but the upstairs was used as a rental property. A garage was later added on to the building for the tenant's use and the downstairs was used for storage. When the youngest of Herman and Jennie's children passed away in 2021, the building was entrusted to the next generation of Bekkens. With fond memories of visiting their grandfather, it was their dream to bring The Shop back to life. During the renovation process, they uncovered several of Herman's tools and artifacts that you'll find hanging in The Shop today, along with the original forge and harness rings where Herman would tie the horses while working on them. The Shop has recently been built out into a one-bedroom fully furnished spacious vacation rental property. Inside the Home The home has a bright open floor plan with a fully stocked kitchen and spacious living quarters. The main bedroom has a king bed with a walk-in closet with plenty of storage. The living room has a queen sofa sleeper. The kitchen is fully equipped with all pots and pans, dishes, and utensils. All new appliances including side by side refrigerator with an icemaker, dishwasher, gas range and oven, and microwave. Stackable washer and dryer located just off the kitchen. Eat-in kitchen as well as a table that seats four. SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS This home sleeps up to 4 guests. Main Bedroom- King Living Room - Queen Sofa Sleeper Outdoor Space Walk out your French doors onto a patio that offers a patio table with chairs and umbrella. Enjoy your meals on the patio using the gas grill. The Location Steps to downtown Douglas's classic beach town community with quaint shops, restaurants, and parks.

The rental was clean, comfortable and in an excellent location. When we arrived, the living room television was not working. We spoke with management, but they couldn't do anything about it until after our stay. We made due. That was the only blip in an otherwise lovely stay. You can hear the person upstairs, but we never had any issues during quiet time. I highly recommend checking out Wild Dog, a short walk from the room. We had an incredible meal, and the cocktails were delicious. We would stay here again for sure! ##### Lee Anne M. Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### catherine o.

The property is on a quiet street and is very close to downtown Douglas. Several local coffeeshops and restaurants were within 5 minutes of walking. Also easily walkable to Saugatuck. There were several small details that could be improved, like the smoke alarm battery being dead or the water filter needing to be replaced. The king bed was wonderful for two 6 foot + tall people, but the frame is not very sturdy. Overall, I would absolutely recommend The Shop in Douglas. ##### Luke B.

The only programming is streaming. Xfinity is the carrier and for me it is hard to navigate. I spoke with the rental/property personnel and it was a waste of my time. I would not stay there again because of the cable issue. There is a TV in the bedroom which we did not turn on so I don’t have any complaints for that TV, we do not watch TV in bed! ##### Norris S.

The place is right in town and has a great location. A lot of history being that it’s a re-purposed and completely renovated blacksmiths shop. There is a tenant who lives upstairs and you can hear everything that goes on. If you are very sensitive this type of noise I would avoid. For us overall it was incredible. ##### Jimmy W. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ryan & E Jun 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great spot My wife and I genuinely loved the location of the shop, it was within walking distance of everything in Douglas and Saugatuck. Which made for some good evening walks in a very nice neighborhood. Another great thing about the location is you get the music from the brewery right next door which is a great addition. However, someone lives above the shop and you can hear everything they’re doing. It didn’t bother my wife and I but just something to know. Also, there weren’t extra towels and the ones offered were extremely thin. With that being said we loved our stay and will be back in the future. ##### Ryan & E Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### K G.
