SOUTH HAVEN INFO
South Haven is unlike a lot of the other Towns/Cities on Lake Michigan. It is actually ON Lake Michigan. The downtown area with shops and restaurants are great and so many of them give you a view of the water where you can watch the boats go in and out of the river as they head toward the Lake. This is one of my favorite activities...watching the boats from the grassy shore of from a restaurant. Walk down to the beach in a couple of minutes and put your toes in the sand. Or you can walk out on the pier to see the Lighthouse and watch the waves come and boats come in.
Nightlife is abundant with several breweries and different types of entertainment. Go to BRT and play a game of Singo (bingo and singing combined...what a hoot) or hit the Michigan theater where 2 people can do a movie, drinks and a popcorn for $20 (when was the last time you saw that!). You can go spend the day at Lake Arvesta Water and sports complex where you can swim, board, play pickle ball, miniature golf...or find some other fun things to do...and the food is good too (especially the pizza!)
