Saugatuck, MI 49453

A charming cottage nestled into a sand dune, offering stunning views of the Kalamazoo River and Saugatuck City. Located near Mt. Baldhead with access to the trail leading to Oval Beach, this historic gem was named one of the 12 best houses in the country by Metropolitan Magazine in 1991. With its warm knotty pine interior, Belle Rive exudes character and a storied past once serving as a boarding house for gangsters during Prohibition. The 4-story home features 5 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, multiple patios, a Vermont Castings wood stove, a new furnace and AC, on-demand hot water, and a dock slip leased from the city.
