St. Julian Winery

Our wines are made exclusively from grapes grown in the Lake Michigan Shore Appellation - one of the most fertile growing regions in the nation - which not only sets us apart from other wineries in the state, but has been instrumental in making us Michigan's most-awarded winery. Our wide selection of award-winning wines ranges from internationally recognized dry wines to award-winning sweet wines, and everything in between. We are also proud to offer craft distilled spirits, and ciders

We did the tour and tasting after. Great wine at reasonable prices and learned that it is the oldest winery in Michigan!

South Haven Lighthouses

Reviewed By gemcitydayton - Dayton, United States

A beautiful site during the day or night, when the pathway is lit with white lights. Charming to view either on the shore or out in the lake. A nice walk out to the light house with the lake lapping around the sides of the walk., and easy to reach from the public beach nearby. Love this lighthouse so much that I have a painting of it in my house!

Kids' Corner playground

Reviewed By mgm291 - New Boston, United States

Visited on Memorial weekend and even though the beaches and local shops were all packed, there was plenty of room for the kiddos to roam. The kids loved it. We have an 11, 9 and 8 year old and all three had a blast. There is plenty of room for adults too to sit on the outskirts at a picnic table or bring a blanket and find some grass under a tree. There was a birthday party and a couple of family gatherings occurring while we were there but there was still plenty of room and the kids loved the playground. If you have kids, Kids' Corner should be on your list of things to do while visiting South Haven.

Very nice winery. Deb was great at breaking down the wines. Sat on their patio with a wonderful view of the winery. She periodically checked on us to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed.

We had a lot of options of where to go for our first-ever blueberry picking and I’m so grateful we chose Bumbleberry Acres. Plenty of space, great petting zoo, and lots for kids to do (obstacle course, swings). Our favorite part, though, was Gabe. He’s part of the 21 person family running this place who was chocked full of excellent info. Like, how Gabe’s mom should realize that his idea to have a Pygmy goat pens added to the petting zoo is pure genius????.
