This is a luxury condominium in a beautiful setting, only a few feet from the seawall on the harbor at Saugatuck/Douglas, MI. The condo is on the top (third) floor of a nine-condo building equipped with an elevator. The elevation and a furnished, open porch provide the best possible view of the harbor and the beautiful sailboats, cruisers, and small craft that ply its waters.

Boaters have easy access to Lake Michigan through a deep channel about 1 ½ miles long. At various times of the year, there is excellent salmon and perch fishing within three or four miles of the harbor. Boaters can also go upriver in the Kalamazoo river for fishing, sight-seeing, etc. In the spring, early summer, and fall there is great fishing right off the Singapore Harbor docks.

It is less than a mile by car to the public beach (Oval Beach) on Lake Michigan, which has a huge expanse of beautiful white sand and great sand dunes. There is also a nice beach area at the end of the channel, just before you go out into Lake Michigan. It is only accessible by boat or on foot. It is protected and usually somewhat warmer than Lake Michigan. See the owner’s statement below for more about vacationing at this location.

Saugatuck/Douglas has a rich industrial (lumber and shipping) and cultural (arts and crafts) history. While the industry is mostly gone, Saugatuck, often referred to as the Art Coast of Michigan, retains it's artistic heritage in the form of art stores, studios and craft shops, museums, and well-maintained 18th century architecture and ambiance.

For the sports enthusiasts and boaters, Saugatuck offers easy access to lake and river sports-fishing, sailing, motor boating, canoeing, kayaking, and all other water sports. Fishing and sailing charters and sightseeing cruises are readily available.

Upscale restaurants and lounges grace the area and especially the Saugatuck waterfront, many offering dockside dining. There are beautiful forests and sand dunes for hiking, picnicking, and sightseeing. About 10 miles away, in Holland, are all the major retailers, as well as extensive exhibits, displays, and parks celebrating Holland’s rich Dutch heritage and floral industry.

OWNER'S STATEMENT: Just a word about our condo in Saugatuck/Douglas, which we are happy to share with you. It is our home part of the year and we went to considerable expense to make it very nice. We want you to enjoy it to the fullest, take care of it like you would your own home, be safe both inside and outside, especially around the seawall and docks and, of course, on the water. Singapore Harbor Condominiums is a place for quiet relaxation and recreation in a beautiful setting.

The pool (pool is about 20 by 40 feet) and area around it is well suited for lounging, sunbathing, reading, conversation, and cooling off. It is not well suited for running, diving, roughhousing, loud water games, etc. Very close by are marvelous beaches and sand dunes, where children of all ages can expend their energy, soak up the sun, and cool off in the pristine waters of Lake Michigan. Not far away is a great playground and many other attractions and activities for children.
