Saugatuck

Saugatuck locals would agree that the west (Michigan) coast is the best coast.

Named the “Best Small Coastal Town” by USA Today, the community has won the hearts of residents and returning visitors alike.

Art aficionados will find plenty to enjoy in Saugatuck. Long known as “the art coast of Michigan,” this community traces its creative roots back 100 years, when The Art Institute of Chicago established its Ox-Bow School of Art here. Today dozens of working painters, sculptors, ceramicists, and other artists call it home. In addition to numerous art galleries, Saugatuck boasts the Saugatuck Center for the Arts, which hosts art exhibits, stage productions, and other exciting events throughout the year.

Saugatuck is a haven for creative culture, culinary delights, award-winning beaches, local boutiques, outdoor adventures, and cozy nights. The town is home to premier chefs, locally-brewed craft beer, and charming accommodations.

Situated along Lake Michigan’s eastern shore, Saugatuck’s natural beauty is a canvas to hike, boat, fish, and golf all year-round. Housing options include one-of-a-kind estates, historic beachfront cottages, and shoreline beach houses.
