Saugatuck IS a small town. Or, more accurately, a village. But, there are big opportunities where we step outside and wander, daydream and lose track of time. Think about it. When is the last time you actually had the luxury of time? When was your last exploration opportunity. Where you wander wherever you want. And, take time seeing what the day might bring?<\/p>\n<p>Saugatuck is the perfect place for such a day&#8230;so get lost.<\/p>\n<p>There are wide, expansive, open places of spectacular beauty. There is no traffic. No matter where you go, you are safe. No matter whom you meet, folks are friendly.<\/p>\n<p>So. Which adventure is for you?<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cEvery man\u2019s life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.\u201d<br \/>\n~ <em>Ernest Hemingway<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Perhaps you set out on a bike (or a tandem bike for two)? Just meander, get lost and see where the county roads take you. No matter the route you take, you find many amazing art galleries and studios, farm stands, orchards, vineyards, Antique stores, craft breweries and cider houses.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe you like traveling travel on foot. Start at <strong>Oval Beach<\/strong> and explore the off-the-beaten path <strong>Singapore Harbor Natural Area.<\/strong>\u00a0 Our great Lake Michigan, the towering dunes, the channel, the beautiful trees, all are yours and yours alone.<\/p>\n<p>Or, maybe the <strong>Saugatuck Dunes State Park<\/strong> is more your speed? Over 1,000 acres and miles of uninterrupted coastline make this a local treasure. Be sure and watch for birds and wildlife. Enjoy the change in the landscapes as you explore. The trails are magnificent and lightly travelled.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cLife is either a daring adventure or nothing.\u201d<br \/>\n~ <em>Helen Keller<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>If you want a bit more of a climb, conquer the more than 300 stairs at <strong>Mt. Baldhead.<\/strong> After catching your breath at the top (and taking loads of photos), choose your path back down. Don&#8217;t turn right back around and head down.\u00a0 Choose another chance to get lost! Wander down the back side to the trails to Oval Beach.\u00a0 The chance to dip your toes into our big blue beautiful lake is worth it.<\/p>\n<p>If <a href=\"https:\/\/souciehorner.com\/wickdev\/get-back-on-the-water-in-saugatuck-michigan-this-summer\/\">getting out the water<\/a> is what calls to you, explore our waterways in many ways!<\/p>\n<p>Hop in a <strong>kayak<\/strong>, or on a <strong>stand up paddleboard<\/strong>, and cruise the Kalamazoo River. Watch for Eagles, Great Blue Herons, Egrets, and more!<\/p>\n<p>Charter a <strong>sailboat<\/strong> and let the winds determine which direction. There&#8217;s nothing like a day of sailing on Lake Michigan.\u00a0 The journey removes any left-over stress and tension. Your time on the Lake makes you feel as if this is a luxuriously long adventure, far away from the cares of the world.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201cTwenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn\u2019t do than by the ones you did do.<br \/>\nSo throw off the bowlines.<br \/>\nSail away from the safe harbor.<br \/>\nCatch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.\u201d<br \/>\n~ <em>Mark Twain<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Come and explore the BIG adventures of Saugatuck, Michigan. Get lost for a day on your grand Saugatuck adventure! And when you return, we greet you with warmth and a smile at Wickwood Inn.\u00a0 Share your tales of expedition with other guests over Sips &amp; Small Plates Happy Hour!
