Nothing beats a warm summer day filled with sunshine, the beach, and a nice Barbeque. One of the best places in the world to experience this is in South Haven, Michigan. Not only are the views completely breathtaking, but the beaches are kept clean and the food in town in to die for. I have the pleasure of living not far and being to drive there in no time to experience this beauty everyday.
Do you still have time over the summer to experience a short vacation, or a long one? I would highly recommend renting a house close to the beach for the week, or maybe a hotel. The houses are stunning to say the least. Wouldn't it be incredible to wake up to a view like this?
What about the light house for the enthusiast out there? I know there are some unless my mom is the only person to go in search of every lighthouse in this beautiful state. The secret of the light house isn't just standing next to it watching the sunset in the winter, or leaving your name and your lovers wrote on it for the summer, the real beauty is seeing the light house in the winter.
This picture was taken while I was standing atop the frozen water.
The downtown is definitely something to brag about. In the main part of the downtown area, you can see South Haven's rich history. Whether it be from just walking up and down the roads or stopping into a shop and seeing old newspaper clippings or pictures.
On your way down to the beach you come across the marina which holds hundreds of boats from all over. It not rare to come across somebody from every state just over one summer spent in town. Once on the beach, you have many options: swimming, walking the pier, playing volleyball, grilling in the pavilion, sitting in the sun taking in that vitamin D, or maybe playing the play ground.
All in all, South Haven is a dream come true in the small corner of South West Michigan.
Enjoy!
