About Saugatuck
Saugatuck is Michigan's art-coast town — a Lake Michigan resort village famous for Oval Beach's white sand, its dune rides, and a downtown packed with galleries. The chain ferry still hand-cranks across the Kalamazoo River, and Mt. Baldhead's 303 steps reward climbers with lake views. It's a summer-busy, second-home-heavy town with a genuine arts identity.
