WINTER ACTIVITIES

Although you won't be basking in the sun on the beach, you can still have a great time at Hillby Thatch Cottages. Both cottages have fireplaces in addition to central heat so you'll be toasty warm.

Winter is a wonderful season in the country. And we have some suggestions you might think about:

• November
  • Visit road side farm stands and pick up gourds and pumpkins for the Thanksgiving table.
  • Take a walk in Allegan State Forest, see thousand of geese migrating and maybe even get a glimpse of trumpeter swans on their way to Mexico.
• December
  • Organize a Christmas shopping trip to Saugatuck. There are no crowds, plenty of lovely things and the Chamber of Commerce has a horse drawn carriage that will shuttle you around town for a pittance. At night the streets are lined with light covered trees and the park is full of candles.
• January
  • Relax after the holiday overwhelm. Bring a good book and prop your feet up by the fire. The snow is lovely in Michigan. It stays bright white for a long time.
  • Cross country trails are within a 10 minute ride and downhill skiing is only 35 miles away.
  • Our witchazel bushes will be sporting lemon scented flowers in the snow!
• February
  • Extend the Valentine's fun by planning a romantic weekend. Make a date at Toulouse, a French restaurant, in Saugatuck which is reasonably priced ($15-22) for the quality food and beautiful atmosphere.
  • Horse back riding in the snow is an amazing adventure. There are several stables nearby.
