Experience Lakeshore Living in Douglas
Step into a completely reimagined retreat where everything—from the floors beneath your feet to the art on the walls—is brand new. Tucked in a peaceful Douglas Lakeshore neighborhood and just a short stroll from Douglas Beach, this home invites you to slow down, breathe deep, and savor the best of Michigan’s lakeshore.
Mornings might begin on the covered patio with a fresh cup of coffee, listening to the rustle of leaves and the call of songbirds. Deer, wild turkey, and curious squirrels often make a quiet appearance, and in summer, butterflies drift lazily across the grassy yard. Evenings are for laughter and conversation gathered around the fire pit or under the stars on the expansive patio.
Inside, natural light floods the soaring two-story living room through walls of windows and sliding doors that open to the outdoors.
Curl up on a sofa with a good book, stream your favorite shows on the 4K Smart TV, or enjoy the cozy glow of the electric fireplace—heat on or off depending on the season. Meals come together easily in the well-equipped kitchen, whether it’s a quick breakfast before the beach or a long, leisurely dinner with friends around the oversized dining table.
With four bedrooms and two bathrooms, there’s room for your whole group to relax and recharge. The layout offers flexibility—private spaces for quiet moments and gathering spaces for making memories together.
Beyond your door, adventure and charm await. Walk less than a mile for a morning latte or to rent paddleboards at Woosah, grab a classic hot dog and root beer at The Root Beer Barrel, or pedal the nearby bike path to explore downtown Douglas (1.1 miles) and Saugatuck (2.3 miles). From here, you’re within easy reach of sandy beaches, boutique shops, art galleries, wineries, breweries, antique markets, hiking trails, and farm stands overflowing with local produce.
Whether your perfect day includes kayaking at sunrise, browsing the farmers market, tasting local wine, or simply unwinding with friends in a beautiful space, this newly remodeled home is your gateway to it all.

We had an amazing girls weekend at Birch & Blue. It was the perfect stay for our group. Plenty of room for all of us and the place is newly remodeled with lots of thoughtful detail. We were able to do coffee on the patio in the morning, and sit by the firepit at night- they have literally thought of everything that makes the perfect weekend getaway. And being just a couple of blocks from the Lake we were able to take several long walks on the beach and enjoy those amazing lake Michigan sunsets. It was absolutely perfect and we have already said were coming back here next year!

Birch and Blue was a perfect spot for our annual girls trip. The house was meticulous and relaxing for our group of 7. The host has thought of every detail to enjoy a weekend away. Cant beat the location either as its a quick walk to the beach. Highly recommend this property!!

Epic weekend in Douglas! We were so happy with this newly remodeled home for our annual girls weekend. They thought of everything! The home had a great layout, so much cozy furniture (both indoor and outdoor!) and amenities down to every needed kitchen utensil. Location was perfect with short walks to the beach, coffee or drinks! Highly recommend. We are planning to return next year!
