This townhouse style home is just "A Step Away" from downtown Saugatuck. It's a couple hundred feet from the marina on the Kalamazoo River. The townhouse has been professionally decorated and offers great interior spaces and amenities and we're always updating our home. The townhouse is large enough so that you can share the home with up to six people (and a dog/additional fee) but also find a space to call your own. Step outdoors and enjoy the exclusive use back yard and maybe an alfresco dinner on your deck area. Relax, it's Saugatuck. The townhouse is fully self-contained and has a private entrance. The home is part of an antique colonial structure that also includes our lifestyle mercantile store: The store (see photo) is located at street level at the front of the first floor only and the townhouse is at the rear of the first floor and the townhouse is also on the entire second floor (that's why we call it a townhouse). The home offers a level back yard (with a grill) and a rear/side deck area (with plenty of patio furniture). Guests of our townhouse have access and exclusive use of our back yard and you'll have your own deck area right outside the great room\*.

The pet fee will be added to your reservation as long as you select a count for "pets" on your search/reservation/inquiry.
