Overall it’s you get what you’re paying for. The staff was very friendly and the outside of the property was nice (fire pits, benches, yard games, etc.) The bed was extremely uncomfortable, mini fridge was broken so food went bad, and the towels are very rough. They also keep a plunger in the bathroom which I thought was odd. Breakfast is just pre-wrapped muffins you get from the store. Like I said, you get what you pay for.

Very comfortable retro feel that was extremely clean and tidy. Lots of places to sit outdoors. The pool and hot tub were very nice. Parking right in front of your room was super convenient and the location was just minutes to downtown Saugatuck. Would definitely stay there again.

Never Again
i used to frequent starlite for many years, even before it was renovated to what it is now. A recent experience at the property, leaves me to never stay again or recommend to anyone. Clearly managament watches your every move on property which is creepy itself. but if you accidently break one of the million rules, watch yourself. As in my 18 year old grandson had a nerf footbal in his hand and was rudely approached in the parking lot about it. My daughter, yes broke a rule with chips at the pool,but the menacing way she was approached and spoken to was totally unacceptable in any setting for a stranger. Imagine a grown man standing over a young woman and blocking her in??? And then was asked if she had a room at the hotel. i gladly checked out after and respent my money elsewhere.

$chitts Creek in the Country
"I actually think this place is kinda cute. It is charming, it is quaint. It's like out of a storybook." ~ Alexis Rose If you like $chitts Creek you will like the Starlite Resort. Reminiscent of a 70's roadside motel with a MCM vibe within a rustic setting. The room was cozy and clean. We only stayed one night and didn't use the pool or firepits but they are a nice little bonus. We've gotten used to using the soaps and shampoos offered where we stay and didn't bring any along. The Starlite doesn't supply any so if you forget yours, head into town and visit the Saugatuck Drug Store for a decent selection.

A throwback to travel the way it used to be! Family friendly, clean, and outstanding customer service. Super easy access to everything in the area. Very close to Pennyroyal, one of the best restaurants in the area. I would stay here again without question!

It’s a gem!
Tried this establishment on a whim as we usually stay at another hotel and I think this will be our new go to place when we vacation in the area. Check in was fast and very friendly. The room was spotless and the bed was comfy. The outdoor area has a spotless pool/hot tub area and fire pits and grill available for guests, a bonus! Guests actually use the sitting areas outside of their rooms so we were able to meet some very nice people during our stay.

Pit Stop
Great little motel that’s had a glow up. We would liked to have stayed longer to use the pool and fire pit but we were there only a short time. Cute rooms, bed was comfy. We would stay again. Charging station for our hybrid was a bonus too.

The motel was so clean and fresh. The pool was great! We would stay again! Next time I would bring my own shampoo and conditioner. We only stayed one night so I thought I would get by. No conditioner. Was surprised they had bagels and danishes as well as juice and coffee complimentary in the morning.
