Kick back and relax in pure Michigan style at this spacious, second-story condo here in Douglas! While you'll enjoy access to a seasonal, heated pool (open from Memorial Day through Labor Day), this property is just a couple miles from both Douglas Beach and Oval Beach.

Inside your stylish, single-level vacation rental, you'll find a well-equipped, island kitchen with stainless steel appliances to make meal prep easy and plenty of counter seating for quick breakfasts or socializing with the chef of your group.

Central air-conditioning and a private washer/dryer round out this retreat's fabulous interior amenities.

Outside, enjoy a partial view of the pool and plenty of fresh Michigan air and summertime sunshine from your private, uncovered deck. The condo also includes a smaller rear patio equipped with a gas grill.

In the evenings, gather around one of the community firepits and meet up with your neighbors as stars fill the night sky.

Great getaway retreat

We come to a Saugatuck every year and stay at the Northern Lights condo. It’s clean, convenient and pet friendly. We’ve stayed in Jack’s Perch before and loved the fresh updates. The doggie welcome bag on the counter was a nice touch

Clean place Great location Good hosts

We would definitely stay here again. The beds were especially comfortable. The condo was very clean! The location is perfect. Gets you out of the hustle and bustle but is only five minutes from everything. Spend a day in Douglas if you’re visiting Saugatuck and stay at this condo!!

Consistently spot on

Our 3rd stay at Northern Lights and again consistent, enjoyable and fully satisfied. Nice bounty of towels and kitchen amenities with comfortable living room and patio with ample seating. Pool, Isabel’s and location is perfect for a short or long stay in Saugatuck/Douglas.

Weekend getaway

Nice little condo community. Communication to start trip was poor, with no details on which actual condo unit. Had to call Vacasa to get details. Messaged a few times on trip with very slow response times. Bathrooms in this unit were weird - broken and empty soap dispensers in the baths (if they are going to be empty and broken - just take them out!).Location pretty good and convenient. Probably would not stay at this unit again.

Perfect Location

This condo was perfect for our family of four. The location was perfect. It was a quick drive to everything that we wanted to visit including Oval Beach, Dune rides, and of course Saugatuck. The pool was excellent! The condo was clean, spacious, and well organized.

Lovely place

It was a spacious condo, very clean, great for kids, plenty of bedding , great heated pool steps away, peaceful and ideal location. Kitchen is fully equipped we can’t find the muffin pans though. And some spices were there as well. Overall a wonderful place.

Perfect Douglas getaway

This unit was perfect for our family (2 kids + dog). We used the pool in the middle of the complex and firepits one night. No issues parking. There was a small market/deli near the property which we ate at one day for breakfast. All the rooms were really clean and check in/check out was very easy. Would definitely stay here again!

Clean, private, close to everything

What a lovely place. The view out the front is of the pool and courtyard. Out the back is woodsie pasture. Saw deer, turkey, bunnies! The drive to Douglas is 2 minutes, and to Saugatuck is 5 minutes at the most. Best of both worlds, private living, but close to whatever you are looking for. Don't miss Douglas Beach for the sunset. Absolutely beautiful! I will definitely be back to Douglas, and will book this lovely condo if possible.

Saugatuck condo

Quiet, safe upper condo, close to restaurants, beaches, nature walks, Dune Ride. Nicely appointed, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay with our dogs along. Landscaping very nice. Private area. Pool on property very nice. The outside back deck and front deck need a good power wash and painting. Interior is well maintained, very slight need of minor embellishments and or cleaning.- nothing major. Secure door entry lock system. Plenty of supplies, including beach towels. Secure, quiet, easy stay for four of us.

Fall visit to Douglas

We stayed at this condo for a weekend in fall. Positives - Good location, with a short drive to everything. The unit was clean and nicely decorated. We didn’t cook during our quick visit but the kitchen seemed reasonably well equipped. Negatives - The bed in the main bedroom is long overdue for replacement. The mattress is so worn out that it feels like you’re lying in a hammock. We slept in the smaller front bedroom instead. There were burned out light bulbs, which is understandable in high season but not in fall. We could hear people talking in the unit below. The motel quality TP, tissues and towels were disappointing, especially considering the price.
