This is a blast. Pick from a selection of cool old boats to rent and cruise on. No better way to see Saugatuck from a water point of view. And, hang out at The Old Boat House before or after your excursion, for drinks and great food...and a game of cornhole.

Make time while you're here and make it a priority to go to Red Dock. The name is deceiving because it's not a cafe. It's a bar. Surrounded by water. Where you will swear you're in Key West. Get a cold beer or drink from the bar, and within 30 seconds of sitting down and soaking it in you'll say "Wow, this is awesome."
