We stayed at 2 bedrooms suite. Great location, outstanding service, very clean rooms. Nice touch - free morning coffee, bread, and fruits. It's close to Oval Beach and Mt Baldhead Park. Would definitely come back.

As a motel owner, I enjoy a getaway after the Labor Day weekend. After much research I decided to stay at the BeachWay Resort & Hotel. It was within walking distance to the beach. I stayed upstairs in the hotel. It was quite lovely, quiet, and the room was spotless. I woke up to the smell of coffee from downstairs. It gave me a B&B vibe.The staff was very friendly and helpful.I look forward to staying there again in the future.

We rented the waterfront room and loved it. The room was clean and accommodating. The staff was friendly and helpful. And we loved the patio and view! Will for sure go back!

This is a nice little place, and for most people, it would probably rate higher. What decreases the rating for me is as follows. Smoking is allowed all around the premises and around the pool. So, for anyone who is allergic or who has difficulty breathing like myself, keep that in mind. The rooms are smaller, so the layout isn't the most efficient, but that can be tolerated. However, you can hear everyone talking outside or walking around inside, so it's not very quiet. The location is fine. However, the chain ferry is very unpredictable, and most of the food and shops are on the opposite side of the river. There is transportation that can be called, but if it's busy, they aren't the easiest to get ahold of. That brings me to parking. There are spaces to park, but everything fills up quickly, and you may be left without a place to park. Just another headache to navigate.The staff was super friendly and helpful anytime they were needed. They will be able to answer your questions and point you in the direction you're looking to go!

Rented a room on the river as we usually do and have a good experience. Great view!HOWEVER….F-I-L-T-H-Y!!! Spiderwebs in corners and on lights. Stuck hand through a spiderweb to turn on the table lamp. Corners, window and slider tracks filled with dead bugs. One corner had over 50 dead bugs in it, not exaggerating. Flies and other bugs flying around. Dead bugs smashed on windows and countertops. Rug was dirty and the place was dusty. Inside of fridge/freezer dirty. Even the bottle of Dawn dish soap had crusty crud on it! Talked with personnel, very pleasant person, they had housekeeping come in and ‘clean again’. We got new towels and they emptied our trash, nothing was cleaned.

Very friendly, welcoming staff. Price is very reasonably affordable compared to others in the area. Make sure you understand which type of room you are getting. Their basic rooms are small and across from each other in a hallway. But they have many room choices that offer more privacy and even have suites across the street along the water. We stayed in room 300 two bedroom cottage which was perfect with a small child. Having a kitchen came in handy. They have movies to rent, board games to borrow. Heated pool. And you're literally a 60 second drive up the hill to Oval Beach which is fantastic. The building/s are basically a converted big house from the 80s probably so there could be some upgrades but one could argue that is the style of this type of resort. Think of this as a B&B vibe. Location is in a prime spot for the beach. If you plan to go to Saugatuck every day, you can easily take the chain ferry across the street that runs from end of May until beginning of Sept. or drive 5 minutes. There is plenty of free parking downtown. Overall, I would highly recommend this place especially when you'll pay $300-$500 more for a hotel or AirBNB if you're doing an extended stay.

The room was the worst we ever stayed in and it cost $288. The pictures did not accurately show how small the room was or that the bathroom sink is in the bedroom, an arms length from the bed . You cannot control the room temperature , and there were no additional pillows or blankets available. The furniture was old, outdated and uncomfortable . Find another place to stay .

We loved everything about Beachway. We had a suite on the water with a kitchenette, which was perfect. We will definitely be back! The staff was generous and so friendly. It's hard to find service like this these days.Nearby activities: Great hiking trails!Walkability: The chain ferry makes it so you don't need to drive into town.

Great location. About 1/2 mile from Lake Michigan. The Kalamazoo River right across the street. Local park with dock just down the street. The room was just as pictured. Wide choice of rooms. The room was clean. Small fridge and coffee pot. Large bathroom. Tv. They had donughts and coffee for breakfast. Short drive into downtown. Closes up for the winter. Owner was very nice. I loved it.

BeachWay is an idyllic resort just a short walk/drive from the sandy Lake Michigan beach with wonderful views of the activity on the Kalamazoo River and a short drive to downtown Saugatuck. The rooms are among the cleanest that we have ever stayed, and they are nicely decorated to match the theme of the resort.

My wife and I stay in the same waterfront suite every year for the past 6 years. Just close enough to town without being right in the middle of it all. Quick chain ferry ride gets you right into downtown or you can sit on your patio and watch the boats go by all day with a cocktail or 10. Annual trip never disappoints.

Very nice older but well-maintained hotel. Has a b&b vibe, very friendly staff. great location near the beach and the chain ferry. only criticism is that the walls are "thin". one night we easily heard 2-3 spirited amorous exchanges next door with sounds, commentary, and the pictures on our side of the wall keeping time with the affectionate couple. while i admire the spirit, i would have preferred not to have felt like an unwilling participate. barring this, its a great place!
