Golf in South Haven

South Haven is an Allegan-Van Buren county border city on Lake Michigan, a port community whose commercial fishing and fruit-shipping history has given way to an upscale resort economy centered on the Lake Michigan beach, the Black River harbor, and the seasonal residential market from the Chicago and Kalamazoo-Grand Rapids markets. South Haven's lighthouse at the harbor entrance and the Maine Street waterfront give it a photogenic character that has made it one of western Michigan's most visited small communities. Multiple golf courses serve the South Haven area's resort and seasonal residential market.
