The Oriole was in a great location with parking on site, and was easily walkable to the shops of downtown Saugatuck. It was exactly as advertised. We had a great trip and enjoyed our stay! ##### Austin M. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Madison C. Apr 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location, Charming Accommodations Wonderful location, quaint, pleasant accomodations. There was a slight issue with the bathroom door that prevented it from fully closing, though beyond this the space was as described. The kitchen was well-equipped and the bed was comfortable. The host was somewhat responsive via email, though not via the VRBO platform. I would not that the electronic lock does self-lock after a period of time which caught me unaware and left me locked out of the property without my cellphone, wallet, car keys or shoes until I was able to locate a neighbor to call the property manager. Definitely not the fault of the property manager but I think something to note so future guests don't repeat my folly. All in all, I would definitely come back for a stay! ##### Madison C.

Jun 1, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Convenient and cozy My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary over Memorial day weekend. The cottage is the perfect size for two and has all the amenities you need for a long weekend. We loved having our own hottub and the screened in porch was delightful to use. The walk to town is so short that we were able to bike or walk the entire trip. Highly recommend! ##### Colleen H. Stayed 4 nights in May 2021 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Katherine G. Oct 10, 2022 Liked: Check-in #### Place needs an update! Bed and pillows were awful! Bathroom was soooo bad. Shower was like being in a coffin. No railing going up the stairs! So over priced for the shape of the place. Loved the location but would never recommend anyone stay there. Much better competition out there! ##### Katherine G.

Great location, absolutely loves the hot tub, we visited late October. The only reason for 1 less star is the bed was really really hard. Made it incredibly difficult to sleep. We were able to open windows to get air flow, but would also really benefit from some kind of fan. A keurig would have been nice too. Considering it only sleeps 1-2 people. But can’t beet the location to town and hot tub. ##### Kaitlin K. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tonya B.

Great location. I did attempt to communicate with the owner after booking because I had a potential conflict, but after no response from him...I let it go and just assumed the $$ loss.
