Bowerman Blueberries Farm Market

The Bowerman family has been growing blueberries since 1954. The farm has already picked blueberries along with other local fresh produce. We offer u-pick blueberries in season mid-July through mid-August. We also make delicious blueberry donuts every morning. Our bakery also makes muffins, pies, crisps, coffee cakes, turnovers, homemade fudge and more. Everyone loves our fruit smoothies and soft serve ice cream. Open Sundays after the 4th of July through Labor Day. The store is open seasonally June through November each year. In the off season call to purchase frozen blueberries by appointment.

Just before Thanksgiving they had a pie tasting event. Wow... Talk about fantastic tasting pies. We have enjoyed their blueberries and now are hooked on their baked goods as well. You really need to try their blueberry donuts. Heavenly!

Spent the weekend in Grand Haven with five girlfriends, weather was not very good. Decided at the last minute to try the Grand Haven Room Escape vs going to throw axes in Grand Rapids. Only one of us had done this before. We had such a good time!. The staff was very nice, helpful, explained everything, was patient with us and all the questions we asked before hand. We didn't make it out in 60 minutes but did so in 61! Would recommend to anyone. It can be hard to find so when you make your reservation make sure you have a good idea where they are(Little out of town, but not very far).

Saugatuck Dunes State Park

The park's 850 acres include a beach, dunes and cross-country ski trails.

Reviewed By Trisha417

Great place to bring the family and the dogs. Hiking the trails to the dunes wasn’t too tiring. Beautiful view of Lake Michigan on top of the dunes. The dogs had a ball playing in the sand and one put her feet in the water. Enjoyed it so much that we visited twice during our vacation. Can’t wait to go back!

Tunnel Park

Reviewed By Cinda10 - Knoxville, United States

This is a wonderful park with a playground and picnic area - and when you walk through the tunnel you discover that you are right near the beach front of Lake Michigan! There are steps down to the sandy beach and you will find lots of places to set down your blanket or chair and soak in the beautiful views.

Rosy Mound Natural Area

Reviewed By HitTheTrailsKC - Kansas City, United States

Rosy Mound Natural Area is a beautiful out-and-back hiking trail near Grand Haven, MI, that winds through 3 different ecosystems including back-dune pine forests, sand dune ridges, and lake Michigan coastline. The stairway over the the dunes turns this rather short hike into a more cumbersome adventure, but the views are absolutely worth it. I run a cinematic hiking channel on YouTube called Hit The Trails KC. You can find my video tour and review of this park on YouTube. Search for "Rosy Mound HitTheTrailsKC".

Come here often with my pup, great trails, a little muddy but the scenery is great for being next to a highway and well groomed
