Dune Buggy Cottage at Treetops - a Lakewood Lux property

Treetops is Saugatuck’s only rental featuring three neighboring vintage cottages—perfect for multi-family getaways. Nestled around a shared firepit and professionally maintained hot tub, each cottage offers screened porches, harbor or dune views, and generous outdoor space for grilling and gathering. Cottages may be reserved individually or together, depending on availability. This listing is for Dune Buggy Cottage.

The most unique of the cottages, Dune Buggy is the newest one and a special retreat at the top of the dune with a wrap-around porch, studio-style layout with a wood-burning stove, half-bath, and outdoor shower. Guests can open all the windows and enjoy complete outdoor-style (screened-in) sleeping, or keep it closed for a cozy night on the dune. We at Lakewood Lux have recently enhanced the cottage with newly installed climate control (heat and air conditioning) and a thoughtfully designed kitchenette, offering elevated comfort and convenience for your stay. This cottage is the smallest, a perfect sleeping quarter to augment Big Red and The Lookout.

For tailored recommendations or to learn more about the property, please feel free to reach out. I'd love to host you!

Cottage getaway

Cottage was super cute and perfect for two! We loved our visit there. The shower needed to be cleaned up better with more hot water for two to shower. The floor was also sandy felling so a broom and dustpan would have helped greatly.

Surprise trip

The Buggy is so awesome! I surprised my wife with a last minute trip to Saugatuck. We had a great time enjoying the hot tub surrounded by trees. Even used the outdoor shower, plenty of hot water for us. The refrigerator and stovetop were adequate but clothes storage is lacking. We walked to the beach, took the chain ferry when possible and walked and shopped and ate. I enjoyed sitting in the screened porch and listening to the sounds of partying. We will check availability when we decide on our next visit. Great location, better once road construction is complete. Additionally, if you want to drive to the oxbow and crow’s nest trails take Park road towards and past Mt Baldhead Steps and continue through the subdivision to get to the trailheads. Disregard the “do not turn around in driveways signs” , there are many places to turn around without offending a “homeowner “.

Perfect Getaway

The dune buggy cottage was absolutely perfect for a weekend getaway. The “vibe” was perfect for a relaxing weekend to celebrate our anniversary. The screened in porch was our favorite, drinking our morning coffee , listening to the bird chirping, watching deer and wild life was the perfect way to start our mornings. Our host Erica was amazing, she helped with any questions we had almost immediately. If you like the outdoorsy feel with being actual inside BOOK this place now! We will definitely be back!

way below expectations

unfortunately, we were very disappointed in the accommodations. It did indicate that there was an outdoor shower. However, we did not realize it was the only shower also, the shower curtain was half ripped off the shower stall itself with only two sided, leaving one open side to the neighbors and had large cobwebs in it and indicated we would be able to share a hot tub and a fire pit with other residents which would’ve been fine except that the hot tub was on the other person‘s deck, and the fire pit was outside the other persons side door, which would’ve been very rude to participate in it indicated that the hot water heater was small. There was less than two minutes of hot water for each shower and they had to be spaced about 45 minutes apart as an insurance person I would say that the steps leading to the location along with the railing or an extreme liability hazard, the railing itself was weak at best , the fireplace had loose rocks and sand around the bottom of it, which made it a hindrance also . there were two space heaters one worked great one was pointless. The city of Saugatuck Oval Beach in the surrounding areas will bring us back.

Quiet, quaint, and surprisingly spacious.

Quaint, quiet, spacious cabin with enjoyable partial wrap around porch/living room. Outdoor shower could use a wider curtain ring to provide room to move nonetheless it was a unique experience. Access to retail/restaurants is not within walking distance unless the nearby chain ferry is operational (to which the walk is a precarious one as the road offers no shoulder). Otherwise, plan to drive to Oval Beach or downtown Saugatuck. Overall, a delightful, albeit somewhat rustic, stay.

Had an excellent time. The property was exactly as described and exactly what we were looking for. So peaceful and unique! Two little baby fawns walked up to the screened in porch area as we were drinking coffee the morning that we left.

Great spot close to everything

We really loved this cabin! We were refreshed by the large screened windows which opened up to enjoy plenty of fresh air throughout the day. We were charmed by the wood-burning stove which kept us nice and toasty warm through the brisk fall evening. We relaxed in the bubbling waters of the hot tub. We were invigorated by the quick one-mile hike to Oval Beach. We were stuffed after visiting the wonderful restaurants of downtown Saugatuck. We were delighted by the thoughtful attention of our host, Erica, who did everything to make our experience the best it could possibly be! Absolutely would recommend and look forward to booking this or any of Erica’s properties for future stays. Thank you!

Perfectly relaxing

Communication with host was excellent . Any issues we had were taken care of without hesitation. A great relaxing time for my wife and I. We would recommend to anyone. .a stones throw to town , the chain ferry didn’t seem to be running much( probably having trouble getting workers) so the local busses worked great 1$ each person each way)
