Big Red Cottage: sleeps 6 in the summer, 4 in the winter, listing #2391984 The Lookout Cottage: sleeps 4, #listing 2392097 Dune Buggy Cottage: sleeps 2, #listing 2392114 You’re currently viewing the listing for the entire compound, which includes all 3 cottages and sleeps 12. Treetops is a vintage cottage compound and ultimate multi-family or large family retreat location. Treetops is a unique footprint, the only Saugatuck rental with three neighboring door-to-door cottages. The complex is the perfect mix of gathering space, close enough for family and friends to share in every activity yet retreat to individual living spaces. All cottages feature multiple screened porches and views of the harbor or wooded dunes. Cottages are located within feet of each other as they surround a shared fire pit, professionally maintained hot tub, and vast amounts of decking for outdoor grilling and seating for the whole family! Treetops guests are also granted additional access to a nearby property located on the harbor seawall. This area can be used for close-up harbor viewing and picnics! WHY THIS LOCATION? A unique property requires a spectacular location and activities. Treetops is no exception. This spot is home to a rare combination of the Saugatuck Harbor, Saugatuck Chain Ferry, private dock (upon request), downtown restaurants/shops, Mount Baldhead, hiking, and Oval Beach. As the primary means to access Lake Michigan, the harbor is full of boats, music, and other fun sights viewable from the cottage porches, firepit, or nearby private dock. Positioned directly across from downtown Saugatuck, the complex is perched on a 50 foot dune that overlooks the entire downtown area. A short walk leads to Saugatuck’s famous public Chain Ferry that shuttles between downtown Saugatuck and the cottages, no driving or parking needed. There is also a $1 bus that will take you downtown and back if the chain ferry isn’t running. Harbor views and downtown access are fantastic, but no vacation is complete without the beach. The complex is located across the dunes from Lake Michigan and the award-winning Oval Beach, the best and largest beach in the entire area! Open daily; the beach is accessible from the cabins via a short 2-minute drive (or 15 minute hike). When’s the last time your weekend plans involved art, shopping, sightseeing, delicious food, and a good glass of local wine? When you’re here, it’s easy to squeeze everything into just a few days! Or if the hustle-bustle isn’t your thing, cozy up in the cottages with fantastic views of the woods and harbor, just steps from Lake Michigan. There really is something for everyone! Enjoy all that Saugatuck has to offer, just 2.5 hours from Chicago. - COTTAGES: Big Red Cottage: Open concept living space with vintage cottage finishes, soaring ceiling, two separate bedrooms, and separate living space on the lower level (separate entrance).
