"Felt like we were staying in our dream home"

Staying at this cottage was a complete delight.  When selecting vacation accommodations, ambience is very important to us.  The Hansel and Gretel Cottage has it in spades.  It's easy to see why it is an award-winning home.  This is a new construction built to be in keeping with Saugatuck's historic district.  The interior is classic with a fresh, contemporary feel.  Each of the four bathrooms is exquisitely tiled.  It's difficult to pick a favorite.  It was fun to roam from room to room to discover what each had to offer.  Clearly the home was decorated by someone with an artistic eye, as it's neutral tones with fun pops of complimentary colors was both colorful and relaxing. 

The cottage is very spacious with it's three-story layout.  We had two adults and two teens on our stay, and there was plenty of privacy and room to spare.  There is ample closet space in the guest bedrooms.  The closet in the master suite is a lovely, walk-in with gabled ceilings.  It is so large that we were able to stash all of our clothing and luggage in there, keeping the master bedroom clutter-free. 

Just a thought if you're bringing really small children--you might want to use a monitor as the basement bedroom is fairly secluded.  But that location was perfect for our teen-aged son! 

On top of the relaxing decor and layout, the home was super close to downtown.  We were able to walk to restaurants and bike around town. 

Finally, Angela, the owner, was extremely pleasant to work with.  We loved our experience and will definitely try to return.
