Great food and incredible atmosphere!! They have an awesome patio with an outdoor bar and firetables when it starts to get chilly. This is an up and coming area of town with a ton of food options!

Parks & Nature

There is a beautiful park and nature trails around the lake and through the surrounding neighborhoods. Great spot for a picnic by the water.

The best beach in my opinion! The bigger state parks are nice but over crowded! Hoffmaster has a bit more of a rustic feel and is often less busy than Holland or Grand Haven. It has a small dune and miles of coast line to explore. Make sure to catch a sunset and head out for some ice cream afterwards at the Whippy-Dip!

Great park right down the road! Nice open space and two playgrounds for kids. There is a splash pad in the summer and a great sledding hill in the winter!

You can rent boats / paddle boards / kayaks to explore the lake or just hang out on the beach. This is a great spot to hang out for the day, go on a walk or bike ride, especially with kids!

Sightseeing

A walk across the blue bridge at night is a must when you are visiting Grand Rapids! Walk along the river and down near the museums to find another pedestrian bridge, end your square with a stroll through the Amway Grand Plaza and a drink on the top floor at Cygnus 27.
