3 Bedroom House in Saugatuck

Welcome to Sherm’s Shack! Located within the Historic District of Saugatuck, this 1874 farmhouse was where our parents enjoyed their retirement. The property is completely family‑run by the Sherman daughters and their kids, who take pride in maintaining the home and welcoming guests to this special place. We’ve had many great gatherings with friends and family, and invite you to have some here, too!
The house is within walking distance from Saugatuck’s downtown shopping district and a short drive to beaches, including the city’s famous Oval Beach. If you like to hike or bike, the beginning of the Saugatuck to Holland bike trail is just down the street.
“The Shack” has plenty of parking with a backyard big enough for games and cook-outs. We have chairs and yard games available.
Our fully furnished kitchen is great for preparing meals and the dining room is a wonderful space for gatherings with family or friends. Or, if you prefer, take advantage of the many restaurants in town (The Southerner is a short walk across the street).
The master bedroom is on the first floor. Steps to the second floor may be challenging for people with mobility issues.

Summary: Our third stay at Sherm’s Shack! Such a charming house. The location is a quick walk to downtown. It’s by far the most well appointed vacation property we’ve ever rented. I love hanging out in the three-season room, drinking my coffee in the morning. We will definitely be back.
