Saugatuck perfection! Spacious & far from crowds, yet close to town.

From the moment you pull into the winding, tree-kissed drive, you’ll immediately fall in love with Wildwood.

Just 5 minutes south of adorable Saugatuck/Douglas and minutes from the beaches of Lake Michigan, Wildwood’s five secluded acres has room to wander or even get lost. Our family relishes every moment spent together here and we think you'll love it too.

Enjoy morning coffee surrounded by maple trees and white pines, bonfires in the evenings and hot-tubing under the stars. Wildwood isn’t just a house, it’s a retreat. Ideal for families and friends looking to get away.

Warmly imagined with time together in mind, Wildwood’s decor is simple and yet eclectic. Inside, a mixture of local antiques, vintage finds and warm furnishings beg for you to leave behind whatever waits for you at home.

Upstairs, a magnificent gourmet, farm-style kitchen opens to the dining area seating up to 12 as well as the home’s sitting room, complete with wood-burning fireplace for cool weather and Sonos for easily plugging in your favorite music.

Inspired by hunting lodges, the upstairs sitting room's twin chesterfield sofas beg for quiet chit-chat next to a roaring fire over cocktails.

The kitchen features a 5-burner stove, stainless steel appliances, a deep farmhouse sink, and everything else essential to throw together a feast.

The outdoor deck has a long dining table for when Michigan presents its best self. Nearby, a couple Adirondack chairs encourage sitting for chats or reading.

Each bedroom takes its name from a different national park and is decorated accordingly, anchored by a warm Pendelton wool blanket. Each bed has 400 thread count sheets for a luxurious night's sleep.

The Badland's Room, the upper floor master suite, features a lovely king-sized bed and massive picture window so you can enjoy the natural setting outside. The ensuite bathroom includes a jacuzzi bathtub and separate shower.

Just across the hall, The Acadia Room features a queen bed. Between you’ll find guest bathroom no. 1 with tub/shower combo as well as a washer and dryer should you need to do a load or two mid-stay.

As you head downstairs, notice the massive framed American flag. It belonged to our grandfather who served in WW2 and is one of our favorite details.

Downstairs' main living room has the most cushy, giant sectional you’ll ever meet, and may never want to leave! Inspired by our love of winter & aprés ski, the vintage snow shoes, skis and 1950s & 60s paint-by-number winter scenes on the walls add to the coziness of the room, making it perfect for movie night with Xfinity TV, Netflix, Hulu. If it’s blustery out, squeeze together for a good game night or a shuffleboard tournament. There’s a variety of games in the upstairs closet.

Also downstairs is the Yellowstone Room. Its fun, twin set of bunkbeds — great for kids or those staying sans significant other — are sturdy, holding adults up to 225 lbs. Down the hallway you’ll find full bathroom no. 3 with a shower and then the Glacier Room which also has a queen bed.

Around the corner from the sectional is the sleeping nook with a fold-out full sized bed. Careful not to wake your friends up as you walk out onto the lower deck and its 7-person hot tub just outside.

If you wander a bit into the woods, you’ll find one of our favorite spots, the fire pit. Surrounded by adirondack chairs, there’s nothing better than enjoying a warm fire on a cool evening while gazing up at the stars. Simple pleasures, and Wildwood is chock full of ‘em.

Should you want to explore, Wildwood is also located near some of the best southwestern Michigan has to offer. The house is just minutes from some of the most beautiful Lake Michigan beaches. It's also around the corner from farmer's stands and down the road from Apple Orchards, Vineyards and Hard Cider Mills. Antique stores dot the countryside. The roads are perfect for cycling, running or simply taking a nice drive, and if you've never been to the area you'll be shocked and thrilled by the number of delicious restaurants, bars and shops. There's so much to do... or not do, which ever you prefer.

We hope you’ll bring your family and friends to Wildwood. It’s yours to enjoy.

Please note that during the summer season, Wildwood is available Saturday - Saturday. Should a week not be booked, 2 weeks prior we will release for a 4 night minimum.

Regarding cancellations:

While the cancellation policy is listed as 60 days for a full refund, 30 days for a 50%, this is specifically for reservations in June, July & August.

September - May, I'm happy to give a full refund if cancelled within 30 days and 50% refund if canceled 14 days in advance.

Perfect location in the woods close to activities and town but extremely quiet and relaxing. Really enjoyed the firepit, hot-tub, and cozy first floor tv room with the rainy weather a couple nights.

Labor Day Week Family Vacation
We spent the week of Labor Day with our adults kids and their spouse/fiancees. The house is perfectly located between beaches, vineyards, apple orchards, and town (Saugatuck/Douglas), as well as on and near quiet roads for great bike rides in the Fenn Valley and Kalamazoo River areas. The house itself is super comfortable, with plenty of room for several couples to spread out. The large deck, hot tub and fire pit area are added bonuses. This is just a great spot, and we'll be back again soon I am sure!

Amazing week with family and dog
What a lovely and amazing week our family and yellow lab from St Louis, Mo had at the beautiful Wildwood home in the woods! We enjoyed all the amenities (s’mores by the fire, hot tub, game nights, coffee on the deck, and bbqs in the evenings)! The weather was perfect. It was fun to visit some of the nearby sights in Saugatuck - Douglas and Holland and plenty of beaches for the family and dog. Loved the blueberries! We made countless family memories!

Very spacious, excellent layout
Everything was just great. We loved the layout with a large living area including bedrooms and bathrooms on two different floors. The beds were super comfortable, the kitchen was well- stocked with cookware and the grill worked really well. We made good use of the hot tub and the fire pit too. Joshua responded quickly to any concerns and questions we had. That’s important! The week went too fast!

The property was amazing, the house is beautiful and exceeded our expectations. Everyone in our group was comfortable. The house is fully stocked with EVERYTHING you need for vacation. Someone thought of every single detail and I appreciate that. The gourmet coffee maker has changed my life! Everyone in our group had space to relax. It was such a comfortable space.The Wildwoods website was very helpful during our trip, since it was our first time in the area we needed all the tips Joshua offered. We are already planning for next year. So much fun and beautiful memories. I forgot to sign the book Joshua but we will be back for sure.

Beautiful secluded area
Beautiful home and property! Close to all the amenities but yet privacy for your group. Located just off the main road on a private drive where the morning walks lead you to nature and tranquility. Beach is only a couple miles away and shopping close. Great place to relax and unwind. The house is welcoming and makes you feel right at home. Can not say enough about the beauty! Bonus is the host is very responsive and very knowledgeable of the area. Looking forward to our next stay❤️

We had a great stay at Joshua’s home. It was a beautiful snowy weekend and we loved all of the amenities here, not least of all the hot tub. Joshua was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. The home is very spacious and has a lot of nice touches and conveniences. We had six adults and all had plenty of room and each couple had its own bathroom. We couldn’t have had a nicer time!

Excellent Family Vacation
Great place, tucked away in the woods and in a peaceful setting. Very close to Douglas, Saugatuck, and some great beaches. Very well-equipped home with grill large kitchen lots of space with a couple of living areas, large deck, loads of sleeping room. The house is very tastefully decorated and the owners are very responsive to any questions. My only "recommendation" is around the coffee maker. I never really figured it out but we got it to work every day. Perhaps some instructions (or a simple Mr. Coffee? :)). My entire family enjoyed the week...we had a blast. Highly recommend this fine property.

Perfect home base for family vacation
We loved our stay at this house - it's tucked away in a beautiful wooded spot, but only about a five minute drive from Saugatuck. There were ten of us (plus a dog) staying in the house, and there was plenty of room for everyone. The house is clean and well-decorated, and there is a really nice deck and firepit area for outdoor time.

Wonderful Family Getaway
Our three families (6 adults, 2 toddlers and 2 dogs) loved our stay at Wildwood. The home is beautiful, inside and out. The layout gave each family privacy, but we were also able to comfortably gather in the dining room, living room or family room and enjoy time together. We especially liked the lovely enclosed deck, which helped to keep the kids and dogs corralled. Joshua is the perfect host - great recommendations and so helpful!
