Visit Ottawa Beach
Popular places to visit
Mt. Pisgah Dune Boardwalk
Climb to the top of this dune and be rewarded for your effort. The climb is made less strenuous with a staircase to the top.
Holland State Park
Two beaches on separate lakes is a nice feature of this park. Choose the beach that might have waves, or the other which is more serene: it depends on the wind.
Dutch Village
You don’t have to be Dutch to go here, but when you leave this village you might feel a connection. There’s something for the whole family to choose from.
Saugatuck Dunes State Park
You can take time to visit Saugatuck Dunes State Park during your travels to Holland. Wander the beautiful beaches in this family-friendly area.
Windmill Island
For those wanting to visit the Netherlands, this is a close facsimile without going to that country. Visit this American attraction for a taste of Dutch heritage.
Tunnel Park
A beach is not always just a beach, particularly when its entrance is unusual. Approach this beach with its dramatic portal.
