Description
The Captain’s Quarters was the first motel in Saugatuck. It was built as a post-World War II lodging facility that introduced the cutting edge concept of “Motor Inns” to the lakeshore. The motel began as a modest three-room motor inn built to capitalize on the auto traffic created by vacationers who were flocking to Lake Michigan beaches for summer vacations. Today the Captain’s Quarters Motel is a 15 room thoroughly modernized facility with a classic New England exterior.
It is owned by a husband and wife carrying on the love of Cape Cod and the area’s relaxing atmosphere. Located on historic route 31 just a brief walk to the center of Saugatuck via shady side streets, Captain’s Quarter motel is ideally suited for those seeking the friendliness and warmth of a privately-owned motel near downtown Saugatuck.The congenial innkeepers will regale guests with a litany of colorful local stories and offer opinions on area restaurants, shops, and activities.
