Additional fee may be charged for May pool heating. For our full suite of offerings, check out our site at ExperienceSaugatuck dot com. The space Contemporary Lodge Tucked in its own 1.5 acres enclave of lofty greenery, the dark shake siding exterior is accented with bright coral shutters. Inside, the lodge theme takes off when you first note the vaulted living room and towering stone fireplace. Playful accents depicting homage to woodland creatures contribute to the theme of lightheartedness and welcome. The kitchen is outfitted with lemon-yellow Viking appliances, offering enough room for meal preparation, and pocket doors to close off the "mess hall". In the open dining room, the extra long table offers plenty of seating and views of the firepit and pool, which "wets" the appetite-- not for food, but a dip! Backyard Oasis The professionally landscaped, arboretum-like setting will draw and keep you outdoors. Numerous places to lounge throughout the backyard make it easy to find a quiet spot by yourself or to gather with friends & family for bbq, games, and drinks. Enjoy a cool breeze on the screened-in porch, and find yourself around the fire pit in the evening. Be sure to experience the outdoor shower.. and did we mention the pool?! You can walk down the path off the property to take you to Silver Lake for great views of the Kalamazoo river byways, and enjoy private beach access. There is also a private basketball hoop with 3/4 court for games of HORSE or 3 on 3.
