ENJOY OUR ENDLESS SUMMER
Indian
Summer Is Everyone's Favorite Season!



"Summer, summer, it will always be summer."
--- Rachel Peder
Warm weather lingers long after Labor Day in Saugatuck and our
Summer days go on and on.
That means that days of beaches and cocktails with a view continue
for weeks to come. The galleries, restaurants, shops, Tasting
Rooms, are all open and less crowded. Many have special events and
menus every week. This is the time to experience Saugatuck at its
best.
We're very lucky in that we live where the breezes warm over the big
Lake Michigan and bring us an extraordinarily long Indian Summer
that lasts throughout September and October and often well into
November. All around town, we continue to celebrate our very
special villages. Join in the fun.
