Great location and great place

We didn’t check in until after 8 pm after a long day of shopping so didn’t use the kitchen facilities but everything we would have needed is available. It is a lovely place and close to shopping. Only issue was upstairs guests must of had children and we could hear the running back and forth. By 10 pm it was quiet so they were respectful of lower tenants. Highly recommend staying at this location.

Second stay at this property

We enjoyed our stay at this property so much in 2024 that we decided to come back in 2025. The property was immaculate and very well furnished. The host thoughtfully included a lot of beach toys, a cooler, and plenty of beach towels. We enjoyed the walking proximity to downtown and to a nearby nature preserve. The bathroom was redone since our last visit and is beautiful. Beautiful hikes overlooking and having access to Lake Michigan are just a few minutes away by car.

Fabulous Birthday Celebration!

What a wonderful stay we had at the Chickadee!!! Clean and very well appointed, great amenities and so comfortable!!! My dearest and beat college friend and I were celebrating retirement and a significant birthday and this was a perfect spot to do both! In addition to the lovely accommodations the front porch was a wonderful spot to have our morning coffee and evening libations! 5-10 minute walk to town. Just a super great experience all around! Highly recommend staying at this lovely place!!!

The space was clean, cool, and just as described. We were there on some of the hottest days of the summer and loved coming back to a cool and quiet space. The walk to the downtown business area is short and peaceful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to come back in the future.

Great couple night stop for family

Super clean and tidy apartment. Thoughtful small things like the beach towels, beach bag and toys were a great touch. The sofa bed worked well for our grade school age kids. Took us about 6-7 minute walk to the edge of the shops and restaurant area. The road does have a decent amount of traffic, but there are sidewalks the entire way into town. Road noise never bothered us in the apartment. We took the chain ferry across the river and hiked up the stairs to Mount Baldhead, great views and fun little hike.

Ideally located within walking distance to downtown Saugatuck. Very clean and comfortable. Probably the best equipped rental we've ever had. The one drawback was the road noise.

Lovely, convenient Saugatuck stay

This was my first time in Saugatuck, and the chickadee rental was the perfect location and place to stay. The unit has everything we needed, including a very comfortable bed and cozy living room. I always appreciate a kitchen when I travel to allow me to make some meals and go out for others. This unit is in walking distance of the downtown Saugatuck area, making it a very easy way to enjoy the town without fighting for parking. We could even walk down to the Southern, a really great place for a meal and an excellent cocktail. We will definitely be back!!

A night in Saugatuck

The property was very cute, very clean and conveniently located. Easy to access. Private parking right outside the door. Nice amenities. Only downfall is the tenants upstairs were very loudly walking around well past midnight and then had a very very loud fan or sound machine running all night that could be heard throughout the whole apartment.

Cozy and Convenient!

Lovely place, perfect for a weekend getaway. Everything was very clean, well-kept and the proximity to downtown Saugatuck was ideal. The street noise was a little distracting only occasionally. Just be aware it’s not nestled away deep into a neighborhood. Overall we had a wonderful stay!
