Blue Star Farms

Reviewed By Jirasela - Howell, United States

I stopped to pick up blueberries already picked. I was pleasantly surprised to see the price was reasonable and they had plenty already picked to choose from. They also had a nice selection of other blues products including pies, salsa, coffee, syrup. One if the nicer blueberry farms I have been to.

One of the highlights of our Michigan trip!! Loves learning about the ecology of the dunes, enjoying the fun ride, and laughing at all the corny tour guide jokes!

Wild West Ranch

Sleigh Rides, Horseback Riding, Romantic Carriage Rides and more. Open year round by appointment.

Reviewed By dianahH8356MS - Lansing, United States

We scheduled a sleigh ride for 2 on the Friday before Valentines Day. The weather was chilly but the ranch provided a nice, thick, handmade blanket for our ride. It was lovely going through the snowy, treelined trails with the jungle of the bells on our beautiful clydesdale mix horse. Our sleigh was pulled by Fudge, a large horse with a rich red-brown coloring and black hair. The sleigh driver was very knowledgeable about the horses at the ranch and showed a deep care for the animals. I would highly recommend this place for sleigh rides and would love to come back in the summer for horseback riding.

Butler Street

The main street of Saugatuck was named for the town's founder, William Gay Butler.

Reviewed By Companion10862371673 - Cleveland, United States

This is a charming street with cute little shoppes and some places to get treats for the kids! We found a park and playground to entertain our toddler while waiting for a seat at a restaurant, and there are nice public restroom facilities. The street and businesses were so cute and make an outing in Saugatuck even more fun!

Wicks Park

Named after former village president Frank Wicks, this park offers great river views and picnicking.

Reviewed By GregS354 - Holt, United States

Saugatuck is so beautiful, but it can get very busy. Wicks park is a shady refuge where you can relax for a bit, and watch the river. Or you can people watch. We love to spend about an hour here, just resting and conversing.

Lake Michigan Beach, popular for its clear water and nice sand.

Reviewed By BoysInNY - Chicago, United States

This is a great beach to watch the sunsets. It’s a small beach as much of the sand is eroding. There are facilities here and lots of parking, which makes it an easy beach to visit.

Bittersweet Ski Resort

Located in the Kalamazoo River Valley, this ski area offers day and night skiing and snowboarding, plus a high-speed detachable quad chair lift.

Reviewed By SkiDave123

I am a ski instructor who teaches at Bittersweet ..... Retired instructor from a different resort just east of Pittsburgh. Bittersweet was a nice find to be able to continue to ski myself and teach. Smaller and less vertical than my Pennsylvania resort, but great without heading 3+ hours further north. Snowmaking capabilities are really good and the lodge is modern and attractive with large window expanses looking at the slopes. There is an outdoor patio that has a heated surface to stay snow/ice free with fire rings and lots of patio tables. Gets very busy on weekends (people aching for an experience during covid). So, must come early if need rental equipment. Weekdays are great. Come out and enjoy !
