The Gardens Lily provides guests with an upscale vacation experience. Sophisticated style and unique original art throughout.
Enter the great room with wood flooring, comfortable furniture, and a seasonal gas fireplace. Relax in the living area while watching a movie on the flat-screen Smart TV or enjoy a meal at home in the dining area. The adjacent kitchen is fully equipped with everything you would need to make a meal. The granite counters and stainless appliances even make it enjoyable.
From the dining area, head out the sliding glass doors to your private back patio complete with outdoor furniture and a flowering garden.
Back inside The Gardens Lily are two master ensuites. The first has a king-size bed and double closet. The adjacent bathroom is extra spacious with double sinks, walk-in glass and tile shower, and laundry. The second ensuite has a queen bed, walk-in closet, and ensuite with shower tub combo.
Located one mile from downtown Douglas and two miles from downtown Saugatuck, you'll have an assortment of activities at your fingertips. From Broadway quality theater and adorable boutiques to an assortment of restaurants and endless ice cream flavors, there is something for everyone.
If Lake Michigan is calling your name, access is only one block away at Douglas Beach Park. Walk over for endless days in the summer sunshine splashing in the waves and walking along the shore.
For larger groups, also consider The Gardens Azalea.
Please Note:
Lily is connected to Azalea, but there is still complete privacy. The patio area is surrounded by landscaping so you should not see each other. You are welcome to enjoy the extended gardens, but they are shared with Azalea.
Douglas Beach is two-tenths of a mile away. There are about 100 steps to get to the sand at this beach. Access is free.
A gardener will be on site in the yard several times a week to keep up the property. We are not able to notify guests every time the gardener is coming. They will never need access to the house.

We loved staying at this house for a weekend getaway. We had our 1 year old with us and were able to fit a pack n play into the second bedroom, prepare his meals in the kitchen, and it was really helpful to have the open floor plan and ranch-style house. The place was spotless and comfortableespecially the couch! We loved walking along the lake multiple times a day and seeing deer outside the sliding doors early in the morning. A prime location to drive into Saugatuck or walk to the root beer barrel and coffee shop down the street.

We have been vacationing from Chicago for 35+ years. Always using Mill Pond for home rentals. When we became empty nesters, we needed a much smaller rental property than when we were bringing our 3 children along. Lily is perfect for the 2 of us. The home is well decorated, comfy beds & linens, gardens are gorgeous. Love this rental!
