Saginaw Bay Resort Four seasons of outdoor recreation on the sunrise side of Lake Huron

Saginaw Bay Resort’s prime location provides easy access to world-class walleye fishing, as well as boating, water-skiing and all sorts of outdoor recreation on and around Lake Huron. For more watery fun, the resort offers a beach and small lake of its own, com- plete with pedal boats and aqua cycles, as well as indoor and outdoor swim- ming pools and hot tubs. After settling in at one of the shady RV campsites, take a walk to the club- house and get familiar with the facili- ties. You’ll find a game room, a fitness center and an adult lounge as well as a handy snack bar and ice cream shop for grabbing a quick meal. The camp store and laundry facilities help make Saginaw Bay a self-contained retreat. The staff is proud of the resort’s family-friendly atmosphere, with planned activities, live entertainment and Sunday services in the chapel. Head to the state-of-the-art miniature

golf course to play a round with the kids, take a head-clearing hike on the nature trails that lace the property or get in a spirited game of volleyball, horseshoes, badminton or basketball. A practice tee on the property lets golfers improve their swing before set- ting off to play 18 holes at one of the nearby courses. Bird watchers can flock to Shiawas- see National Wildlife Refuge, a resting spot for more than 270 species, includ- ing dazzling white ibis and white peli- cans. Shoppers converge at Birch Run, with more than 170 factory-direct stores less than an hour away. The re- sort provides convenient door-to-door shuttle service to nearby Saganing Eagles Landing Casino. Saginaw Bay Resort stays open year-round, with winter sports rang- ing from ice-skating to cross-country skiing and ice-fishing, making this a four-season family destination.

I f you think of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan as a mitten surrounded by water, then Saginaw Bay is the inlet that flows between the thumb and the bundled fingers. At the end of the inlet sits the small town of Standish, her- alded for its spectacular sunrise views across Lake Huron. Here you’ll dis- cover Saginaw Bay Resort, one of five Coast Premier Resorts in Michigan’s Outdoor Adventures network, includ- ing two that are just 15-minutes away.
