Downtown Saugatuck is a short walk away and Douglas and Oval Beach are easy drives. Enjoy all of the amenities provided indoors and outdoors. All "A Step Away" guests receive a discount when shopping our local store during their stay. Lastly, we're dog friendly (w/approval & fee). Our “A Step Away” home—your ideal “Rendezvous” getaway—has so much to offer: location, amenities, and hospitality. This single-story home features a fully renovated interior, a fenced yard with landscaping, and easy on-site parking for a couple of vehicles. Inside, you’ll find comfortable accommodations for two, thoughtfully styled with décor that reflects the charm of Saugatuck, Douglas, and the local beach and arts scenes. The home is perfect for a variety of travelers—from solo adventurers to couples. Whether you’re traveling alone, with a partner, or renting both this home and one of the adjacent two-bedroom homes next door, you’ll enjoy a space designed for carefree living. The home includes one king bedroom, and the brand-new kitchen with a dining island flows into a vaulted-ceiling living room. Large windows and a glass door offer views of the patios and gardens. The living room opens directly onto a pergola-covered patio, complete with seating and a propane grill—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The bathroom is also new and includes a shower (no bathtub). We believe “A Step Away” is the perfect place to enjoy your Saugatuck escape—whether you choose just this home or pair it with one of our neighboring two-bedroom properties. As a guest of “A Step Away,” you’re invited to stop by our home décor, clothing, and jewelry store—Kindel & Company—located at 241 Culver St. in downtown Saugatuck. We’re happy to provide personalized recommendations for local attractions, dining, and shopping (we call it our “lite” concierge service). Plus, all guests receive an exclusive in-store discount!
