Tree-lined streets dotted with Victorian and Craftsman homes create the perfect peaceful retreat after beach adventures. Lake Michigan's sandy shores are just a short walk away, while the Kal Haven Trail offers scenic routes for biking enthusiasts. The area is primarily residential with minimal dining options, so you'll want to venture downtown for restaurants featuring fresh lake fish.

Beach paths lead to quieter stretches of Lake Michigan shoreline where you can hunt for beach glass or simply watch the waves roll in. Strolling tree-lined streets reveals a mix of weathered cedar cottages and modern homes where the focus stays on those stunning water views. The Michigan Maritime Museum offers a fascinating peek into the area's nautical history. Vacation rental homes dominate the accommodation scene, many with private yards and lake access.
