This beautiful home had plenty of space for our family of seven. It rained the first two days and was cool and windy the third day, so we were unable to use the outside amenities. We did have a good time with the pool table, foosball, chess, shuffleboard and the hot tub, as well as just hanging out and spending time together. This was our first visit to Saugatuck. It's a nice little town.
The house was beautiful. Plenty big for our large family. The weather was beautiful, we lucked out. Shopping in downtown Saugatuck was an extra bonus. The only negative was the beach. It was over grown with weeds and dirty.
We had a great time! Played in the game room, pulled out the kayaks, made s'mores, grilled dinner and enjoyed everything Saugatuck had to offer. Wonderful vacation, everyone happy!
Everything was just perfect! We had such a wonderful stay and can't say enough about the property. It was everything we hoped for and more! So wide open, beautiful, well stocked, near town, lots of fun on the lake with fishing, kayaking and paddle boarding. For our family of 13 we had plenty of room and the cottage was a major plus! The views on every level were gorgeous and our time outdoors on the decks was peaceful and/or festive. Lots of room to spread out! We loved cooking in and enjoying our evenings on the property. Thank you for everything!
We had a wonderful family reunion with 13 adults and 3 toddlers. There was more than enough space to spread out and large rooms if we wanted to share time together. The house is beautifully decorated and many windows overlooked the fabulous deck and lake area. Beds were super comfy. We took advantage of the in house chef one night. Quite the feast ! Our family took advantage of all activities the house provided: game room, kayaks, paddle boards, fire pit ( be award of chiggers down by the lake, would recommend bug spray ). The kitchen was well stock with the all the basic needs. We highly recommend.
The property is beautiful and the owners have though through details to make the stay easy. Things are very well marked. The setting is great. Your are also 1.7 miles or so from the cute downtown area, 10 minutes from the national park and about same distance to Lake Michigan. There are bath robes in the rooms, hot water with good pressure, impressive kitchen equipment and tons of room to space out. Only negative is that google maps doesn't find the place and the pin (if it takes you to google maps) also doesn't take you to the right place. We had to download apple maps and take a third pass in RV to get there.
Beautiful and spacious. Kitchen is well appointed with all the necessities for cooking a great meal. Coffee and snacks were a nice touch.
Lots of activities to keep those teens busy while the adults relax and take in the view or have a day exploring nearby interests.
An excellent property!! Communication with upscalelakeshore.com was excellent. Their guidelines for rental and use of the property are excellent. We utilized their concierge services to hire a photographer and a chef to help us celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary with our children and grandchildren. The property is located on the Kalamazoo River. SaugaBuck House has a boat house complete with three kayaks and two paddle boards. Our grands enjoyed their time on and in the water. This property has an excellent kitchen and was well stocked with appliances and basic cooking supplies. Three kitchens are available, two in the main house and one in the guest house. We enjoyed the multilevel decks. I would highly recommend this property for those wanting to enjoy the Kalamazoo River, Silver Lake and Lake Michigan.
We are a family of 12, made up of 8 adults and 4 children between the ages of 17 and 10. This house was conveniently located to town and had a lot of space to accommodate all of us in the evenings and the during the days. It had the right mix of group space and pockets for individual escape.
This place immediately stood out while I was searching for a suitable rental home on the water for our family of 10! It has beautiful views, a ton of space and is close by to many activities and restaurants! Would recommend to any large family for any occasion.
This beautiful home, space & location was absolutely perfect for our large family (16 people + 1 dog) vacation celebrating my in-laws 50th Anniversary! Plenty of comfortable space, clean, and idyllic outdoor space. Beautifully decorated and pet/child-friendly. We enjoyed cooking home meals, fishing off the private dock, and drinking coffee on the balconies with a picturesque view of the river. Easy non-contact check-in/out process was greatly appreciated. Easy drive to Downtown Saugatuck & Oval Beach, as well as plenty of golf courses to play on nearby. Very clean, comfortable, and wonderful home & guest cottage. Highly recommend this great place!
My friends and I had an absolutely incredible experience at this house. It was only a short drive into Saugatuck which was very convenient, but we barely even left because the house itself was so amazing. There are multiple living areas which make it a great spot for a large group, as different activities can be done in different parts of the house. The house itself is absolutely stunning and so cutely decorated with great views of the water. I loved every second being there :)
