Blue Zen - Two Bedroom Cottage, Sleeps 4

This 2 bedroom 1 bathroom was remodeled in 2017 with spectacular views and access of the Kalamazoo river. This secluded cottage will make you feel like you are far from everything yet only few minute drive to downtown Saugatuck! This cottage is located on a very private setting with amazing views, indoor gas fireplace, outdoor fire pit, and charcoal grill. Take the stairs down to the river and launch your kayaks for a paddle on the kalamazoo river to town or try your luck at fishing. (There currently is not a dock at the property and the stairs are steep) The master bed has a therapeutic adjustable bed with a TV. The second bedroom has a queen bed and also has a tv. Note: you do have to walk through the master to access the second bedroom. The second bedroom has windows with no shades. The full bathroom is outfitted with a shower. Note: The shower is a smaller stall tiled shower. The cottage does have a mini split AC system.

Quiet relaxation!
This property is beautiful, especially in springtime when all the marsh/river critters are active! Binoculars provided (a wonderful touch), prepare to birdwatch. There is one neighbor with a hot tub you can almost see from the backyard, otherwise it is very secluded and private. Did not bother us one bit. Very clean and all the comforts of home provided, the perfect place to get away and enjoy nature. Download the Merlin bird app, you won't be disappointed!! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Blue Zensation
The cottage was clean, well equipped and very comfortable. A great view of the river and surrounding marsh is an extra treat with Bald Eagles and Sandhill Cranes in the distance. A feeling of quiet but proximity to the activity of Saugatuk and Douglas made for a perfect weekend.

Peace and Quiet in the Woods
We stayed 3 nights at Blue Zen. It is in a very quiet, peaceful, natural location. The road to the house seemed to transport us from noisy and busy to quiet and calm. The house is as is reported. There is ample space for 2 people. We had guests for dinner one evening and enjoyed the outdoor space. It was nice to be able to use the fire pit, thanks for the wood. The house was clean and tidy. We found everything we needed, good internet access and tv entertainment. We would return.

Relaxing!
My husband and I hadn't been away from the kids in almost 3 years and this was the perfect getaway to refresh and relax. Even though the power went out in the area after some heavy wind storms, it was still so nice to be in the quiet and beautiful home!

Wonderful experience
This property was very clean, just minutes from the downtown area, and the views from the property were amazing. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it. I did leave a message with in the first hour of our stay because the door was not locked when we arrived. I never heard back from anyone, but other then that we had no problems.
