Renovated 1871 Chestnut House | Hot Tub & Fire Pit

Slip into the steaming hot tub beneath an open Michigan sky, gather around the fire pit as evening falls, and wake up to coffee on a screened porch that feels like a well-kept secret. Welcome to Chestnut House - one of Airbnb's Guest Favorites in Douglas. Stay near the sand! This Douglas, MI getaway is a short drive or easy bike ride from pristine Douglas Beach and world-renowned Oval Beach.



The Chestnut House, built in 1871 and freshly renovated with genuine care, is the rare kind of place that feels both timeless and deeply comfortable. Original character is everywhere - the creak of old floorboards, tall windows flooding every room with natural light, the satisfying weight of a home loved for over 150 years. The renovation enhanced all of that without erasing any of it.
