Was a member for 5 years and enjoyed every year. Staff is friendly and helpful, Emily & Sarah, and the location is great. Move north in 2024 but would not hesitate to go back or recommend to a friend.

Oval Beach
This world-renown beach appears in Condé Nast Traveler’s Top 25 Beaches in the World, National Geographic Traveler’s Top Freshwater Beaches in the USA, and MTV’s Top 5 Beaches in the USA, just to name a few. With its iconic rolling dunes, sweeping shoreline, and stunning natural beauty, it’s easy to see why. This favorite summertime spot features a picnic area, concessions, and convenient parking for easy access. It’s worth noting that no dogs or alcohol are permitted on the beach.
Fishing Charters
Head to Saugatuk’s headquarters for outdoor adventure to get geared up for some fun on land and sea. Book a charter excursion to try your luck reeling in walleye, salmon, trout, and smallmouth bass on Lake Michigan with our expert guides. Rent a pontoon for the day or stick closer to the shore and explore in a single or tandem kayak. Bicycle and electric bicycle rentals are available to cruise around Saugatuk’s charming streets. Whatever adventure you’re looking for, you can find it at Big Lake Outfitters.
Mount Baldhead
If you’re looking to get some exercise in a beautiful setting, head to Mount Baldhead, A 1-mile loop trail ideal for hiking, walking, and trail running. For summit views of Lake Michigan and Saugatuck you’ll need to climb 302 wooden stairs at the base of the mountain, but the reward at the top is worth it. The best way to access the trailhead is by taking the hand-pulled chain ferry from Saugatuck across the Kalamazoo River.
The Dunes
The largest LGBTQIA+ resort in the Midwest and one of the largest in the country. First established in 1981, The Dunes have always been a place that encourages self-expression, acceptance, and celebration, no matter who you love. This beloved party spot features a wide range of accommodations including single rooms, cottages, and suites. Guests also enjoy an exciting lineup of live events and plenty of delicious dining options.
Ship-N-Shore Hotel
Looking for the ultimate waterfront hotel experience? You’ve found it here at Saugatuk’s Ship-in-Shore. Relax comfortably in one of the hotel’s 40 well-appointed rooms, lounge by the pool and hot tub, or venture out to explore the restaurants, shops, bars, galleries, and attractions, just steps from your door.
Saugatuck Dunes State Park
Stretching along 2.5 miles of Lake Michigan shoreline are the beautiful coastal dunes of Saugatuck Dunes State Park. Reaching over 200 feet tall, the dunes are a popular destination for hiking and recreation. The park’s four winding trails take visitors down sandy terrain to the shoreline and make for a great family activity. Adjacent to the park are mountain bike trails and a disc golf course. Dune rides are also available.
