The cottage is super cute and there are some great updates! Only complaint is there was dog hair all over the couch and dirty laundry was left in the washer, unwashed, when we checked in. We’re all human and I understand the cleaning people have a lot to do and it was something that was forgotten about, on accident. Has absolutely nothing to do with how wonderful the cottage is. We would definitely stay again. ##### Mandy B. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Rita C.

The main house has one bath, and the bungalow in the yard has one bath. We were two couples (one stayed in the house, one in the bungalow) so that worked out well. The house and furnishing are older, but comfortable. We appreciated the washer / dryer in the basement. Also a nice plus when you are away for a week. There is also one off-street parking space, which comes in handy on the weekends. Communication from the owner was great. Love Saugatuck! ##### Rita C.

May 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Weekend at the Butterfly Cottage We (a medium sized group of women in our mid to late 20s) stayed at the Butterfly Cottage for a weekend and enjoyed our stay! It's a super cute cottage that easily slept 8 people. It was easy to check in/check out of and had a great outdoor space for meals. A few small things to mention: in the guest house bed there were a few ants both nights of our stay, when we arrived there was a tick in the tub of the main house shower (possibly due to the space being where the towels/linens were all put for the last guests) and we were a little tight on paper towel/toilet paper due to not having as much as mentioned in the initial check in. Overall, we had a great time and the space was perfect for our needs even with these small things. We appreciate the Butterfly Cottage hosts and their beautiful home! ##### Lexi N.

We really enjoyed our time at the Butterfly Cottage! It was a cheery and comfortable space, and a great home base for our time at Lake Michigan. The Saugatuck/Douglas area seems particularly challenging for cell tower reception and reliable data, so having wifi was helpful when it was working smoothly. The back patio was lovely for summer evening dinners cooked in the kitchen, especially since we left home during a power outage with the full contents of our freezer - so we had plenty to cook! Some larger size bowls and platters would have been helpful for our party of 7, but creative use of pots and pans worked well! Thank you for a memorable stay! ##### David M.

Oct 12, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Location is great The house is very cute & comfortable with room for friends to spread out. My husband & I slept in the bungalow where it was nice to have a private bathroom. The condition of the bungalow was very disappointing. Broken window blind, where we had to put pillows in the windows for privacy. The shower curtain was absolutely disgusting, black from mildew. (A $10 fix) and cobwebs everywhere. No ventilation which probably caused the mildew in the bathroom. We thought of turning on the ceiling fan, but it was very dirty too. ##### Bonnie D. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Lorraine S. Sep 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay - need a car for groceries. We absolutely loved the set up & cleanliness of Butterfly cottage & the bungalow. The decor is adorable & the furniture & beds were all comfy. Walking to town is a cinch & pleasant. Katherine, the manager/owner responded quickly to any inquiries. One toilet out of 2 for a fairly large group was non-working, as was the case w the overhead lights (both in the bungalow). At the end of our 2nd day (out of 3 nights), the toilet was repaired (plumber needed to make 2 trips) The lights were irreparable during our stay because the wall Switch for them needed to be replaced ( there was one dim lamp in a large room that slept 4). The filtered water by the main house kitchen sink ran at a trickle & leaked onto the counter. Plumber didn’t address that at all. There was a shortage of basic supplies towels, face cloths & TP. These were not killer problems - as we loved the place & its location. But these were all things that any diligent management wouid have checked over before our flights & arrivals for a family wedding. They were not “new” problems. The whole downtown area has the dilemma of no convenience store/grocers. It was literally impossible to find even milk for coffee! Kinda strange not being able to pick up a few basics for the house. We didn’t have a car. FYI - although town was very busy with visitors in early September, the little ferry that runs over to Douglas (& the grocery store) closes on Labor Day! The town “opens” late mornings. Lovely area. ##### Lorraine S. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly L.

Walk-in distance to downtown area. ##### Takis P. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maureen B. Aug 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Lovely cottage with an additional sleeping area in another bldg directly in back. Lots of sleeping space. Also, a large outdoor table with lots of seating. Perfect to spend time outdoors. Both tub and shower were quite slippery, no grab bars. Maybe not perfect for seniors. ##### Maureen B. Stayed 14 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jaye C. Sep 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Excellent experience and great location to downtown. The house was clean and had a very nice and charming vibe. Kitchen is well appointed.Small issues: There was no hand soap at the sinks and only one tablet for the dishwasher. No toiletries are offered. The fireplace heater was not working in the bungalow. It may have been batteries in the remote. Would stay again. ##### Jaye C.
