Weekend Itinerary
Friday
We're going to assume you arrive in town around 5pm after taking off a bit early from work (thanks boss!)
-Check into your accommodations and take a minute to refresh before heading into town!
-Grab happy hour while soaking in the views at The Old Boathouse or one of the other waterfront spots mentioned below. Alternatively, take a stroll through Wicks park and watch the boats go by.
-Head to Coast 236 or another dinner spot of your choice from my recommendations below.
-Try another bar or grab a bottle from Wine Sellers of Saugatuck to take back to your room and enjoy a relaxing evening! Alternatively, stop by Dairy Dayz for a frozen treat.
