Tucked away in downtown Sawyer, behind the old fire station, is the best cup of coffee around. They also have the best pastries and fabulous service! Be sure, if you're here during the weekend, to check out the new Mexican bread store next door, very unique and delicious items for sale!

Another local favorite. When you enter the restaurant you are able to see down into their distillery. They have great tours, with tastings, you must schedule! Also great food (love the cauliflower steak and their lavendar infused gimlet to drink) There is also a mini golfing course in the back that you will love to enjoy or just peek at for a bit of Scotland in Three Oaks.

A must for summer sunsets. Lake Michigan beach, of course, but a well kept local secret is the playing of taps at sunset.....It's a moment of silence and beauty you will not forget!

Another historic building (like the Acorn), before you enjoy your movie the owner speaks to the audience about the movie, and at times will ask a trivia question and the winner gets a gift! This is a must!

If you are here on the weekend, they have live outdoor bands, bring yard games, cards, hang out for the day. Their wine tasting is also great! This is another must. I also suggest you hit the Round Barn Public House for the yummiest Brussels sprouts, pizza, and beer!

City/town information
This is a great little town 20 minutes away. BUT you must go to main street and shop all the little shops on the brick road! Then head 1 block west and walk the bluff above the Lake. Head down the steps and grab some pizza at Silver Beach Pizza, another local favorite. A day to remember.
