Description

Art Coast Cottage

This is the cottage you've been looking for. An escape from ordinary life, tucked away in the Lake Michigan sand dunes near the Oxbow School of Art campus. You will feel as though you've been transported into another time and place. This secluded, quiet, wooded setting is truly magical!


Take joy in the slower pace and be off the beaten path. Relax on the wrap-around covered porch with your morning cup of coffee while listening to the songs of the local birds. If Lake Michigan is calling your name, you have the option of walking, biking, or driving to the Oval Beach which is only 1.2 miles by road. Mt. Baldhead is 0.5 of a mile away for great hiking and beautiful views, and then perhaps a backside hike down to Oval Beach! The Chain Ferry is nearby as well, 0.7 from the cottage, and will take you across the river into the heart of Saugatuck for great shopping and dining. In the evenings, you'll want to gather around the fire pit to make s'mores and laugh about times gone by or sit at the table chatting, playing cards, assembling puzzles, or playing board games.

Built in 2012, the “Art Coast Cottage” shows near new.  The cottage offers all the modern amenities including a fully equipped kitchen and adjacent dining area are great for meals at home. The dining table is made out of a family shipping crate dating back to 1924 - truly magical! Enjoy a quick breakfast before you go out exploring for all that Saugatuck has to offer or make an entire dinner to eat at home. The living room boasts soaring ceilings and surrounding extra-large windows with beautiful views of the surrounding woods. You will want to sit and visit with your loved ones for hours. The main level has two bedrooms and a full bathroom with a shower tub combo adding convenience for those who may have a hard time with stairs. Upstairs there are two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom with a walk-in shower.

Staying at the Art Coast Cottage is your opportunity to experience a location many only dream of...

What a cute place, and a perfect weekend getaway location!! We appreciated how the house itself was newer and clean, yet the furnishings and decor gave it a cottage-y feel. We drove most places as we had our 4 kids in tow, but enjoyed being more secluded and away from everything. So relaxing! Its so quiet we even saw 2 deer outside our window in the morning! We will definitely be back.

You can look forward to privacy & quiet - yet are near enough to Saugatuck & Douglas to check them out. The house is well stocked with plates, silverware, etc, so you dont have to do dishes every night. Thats a plus! Be sure to check out both towns!

Beautiful location, secluded but not too far from town with shopping and restaurants. Good for family stays. There is a nice hike in the woods close to the property which we enjoyed with our baby.

The house was perfect for our familys stay. Its well kept, very clean, and well equipped. The outside area was perfect for a BBQ and nightly campfires. The Mill Pond team were incredibly responsive and friendly. Would definitely stay here (or another one of their houses) again!

In a prime location in Saugatuck! The Art Coast Cottage was tucked back into a prime location for sitting around the fire pit and enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The house was very clean and perfect for our group getaway. Would definitely go back. Tip: Theres a $1.00 ($.50 for children) shuttle that will pick you up and drop you off from the Art Coast Cottage. We were planning on having some drinks downtown and didnt want to drive so this was a perfect, easy, and super affordable option.

This is a great house in a wonderful woodsy area. There was a great hiking trail near the property and it is a short drive to get to downtown Saugatuck. The dining room table comfortably sits 8!

We loved our time at the Art Cottage. It is beautiful inside and out and set up well for use. We were able to take in all Saugatuck and Douglas offered with a short drive to town and then come back and sit outside in the woods on the covered porch. Every evening we sat around the fire and enjoyed our wine . Smores and the sounds of nature. It was the perfect spot for our family.

This place is very comfortable and quaint. We did enjoy our stay for sure. The porch is glorious as are the surroundings. We saw lots of wildlife! I would say this is a good place to make memories and enjoy the company of loved ones.

We had a lovely time at the Art Coast Cottage. It felt like camping in the woods with easy access to a hiking trail and nearby Oval beach. We were pleasantly surprised by how many different glasses they had for a variety of beverages and the amount of dishes (including childrens dishes).
