~ GRAND BEACH is best known for its fabulous, family-friendly beach. Lesser known, but with equal potential for fun are Grand Beach's own 9-hole golf course, tennis courts, basketball court and playground. The private community also boasts miles of zigzagging paths which are great for zipping around in the golf cart, walking, jogging or biking.
~ THE GREATER AREA is aptly named "Harbor Country" and Spyglass is situated right smack in the middle of this water-oriented Mecca. Here visitors can enjoy any number of water sports. Sailing, surfing, windsurfing, kayaking, fishing and jet ski adventures may be arranged through our concierge service or secured independently at any number of spots in New Buffalo. In addition to water sports, golf, cycling, hiking, shopping, dining and spas are just minutes away.
~ Find your feet buried in the sand in seconds. Spyglass is just steps away from one of Michigan's best stretches of beach.

~ VISITORS looking to explore the local vineyards and farms have hundreds of options. I am a fan of Journeyman Distillery, located just 10 miles away in Three Oaks, MI which offers handcrafted, artisan spirits and simple, yet delicious fare in an fantastic setting. If you catch this place on the weekend, you may even have the pleasure of jamming to a local band. The Greenbush Brewery in Sawyer, MI has a great outdoor patio complete with bocce and horseshoe courts.
~ RESTAURANTS ABOUND. Some of my favorites include: Brewsters, a great Italian joint in New Buffalo. Brentwood Tavern at the Marina Grand for high-end American fare and Duneland Inn. The Stray Dog's rooftop patio is a great spot for the whole family.
~ OUR FAVORITE coffee shop is David's in New Buffalo. Find some of the best blueberry muffins and vegetarian sandwiches there.
