So many fun shopping spots and restaurants to try! Some of our favorites: the BARge for American food + waterfront views, Ida's Red Cottage for an incredible, cozy breakfast (the place Justin took Becca on their first trip to Saugatuck in 2021), and The Butler for fancier fare! Stop by Saugatuck Brewing Co for a Peanut Butter Porter to wash it all down.
Ranked by Condé Nast as one of the top 25 beaches in the world, it's beautiful year-round to walk down or relax after a hike on the nearby Mount Baldhead.
Explore the natural dune landscape of Saugatuck with a exhilarating 40 minute dune ride!
Journey to Justin's hometown and explore downtown Holland! Some of our favorites on 8th Street: Bowerman’s Blueberry Shop: the blueberry donuts are a must-try! If that's not your jam (pun intended), they have many other great blueberry-themed items, too! New Holland Brewing: get our favorite-the pizza pinwheels and wash it down with any of their amazing, West-Michigan brewed beer. Justin recommends the Tangerine Space Machine and the Dragon's Milk! Windmill Restaurant: try Bob Barrie’s favorite breakfast item here- the hashbrown omelet! It's insane! Cranes in the City: lean into fall and explore some of Crane’s amazing apple produce! The farmers market: enjoy fresh grown, West Michigan produce on Saturday morning at the Civic Center!
Pro tip: grab a sundae from this historic ice cream shop (visited by several U.S. presidents) on your way to catch a sunset at Holland State Park or Tunnel Park. Justin's recommendation? The Peanut Butter Shipwreck, of course!
Justin's childhood apple orchard! Approximately 20 mins from Saugatuck.
