Reviews of The Walnut Suite

"Our time at the Forest Inn was a few days of paradise! Every part of our experience was a delight: the gorgeous Walnut suite, beautifully restored inn, refreshing pool, amazing breakfasts, and the hospitality of Eric and Traci. This was the perfect base for our first exploration of the Saugatuck/Douglas area, including the location 1/2 block from the beach. 5+ stars in every way! We can’t wait to return."
-Clay W.

"We stayed at Forest Inn of Saugatuck in August 2025 for a mother/daughter getaway. Everything was perfect - Walnut room was gorgeous, breakfast was delicious every day, hosts Eric and Tracy were nice and helpful (there if you need help but also not overbearing). Location was great- very close to the public beach access and many biking/walking trails. We enjoyed walks along lake shore and sunsets. Easy to get to town center and also to Saugatuck Dunes State park. We cannot wait to visit again."
-Olya M.

"My husband and I stayed in the Walnut room here for a weekend getaway and it was amazing!! The location is walkable to Douglas beach. It is so peaceful and quiet. The hosts, Eric and Tracy, have great recommendations. The breakfast is also amazing. Look no further for a place to stay!"
