Review of Piper Restaurant, Holland

Piper Restaurant is located on the South Shore of Lake Macatawa, about 30 minutes from our Inn. Situated among the marinas and yacht club, overlooking the mouth of the channel to Lake Michigan. A nautical setting if there ever was one. We had a table outdoors, but the indoor dining area features large windows overlooking the same sunset view. We recommend this restaurant if you want a beautiful spot to watch the sunset while eating dinner, dessert, or having a drink.

Allegan Antiques Market

The Allegan Antique Market is held at the Allegan County Fairgrounds, about 10 minutes from our Inn the last Sunday of every month between April and September.

One of the largest in Michigan, this market features over 400 dealers. In addition to the traditional furniture, dishes, and the like; many dealers specialize in interesting and unusual objects, lawn art, tools, you name it. Many of the fair food vendors are open, too. Even if you aren't a collector, this is a fun way to spend a summer Sunday. 200 dealers are located indoors, so we recommend a visit even if it rains.

Tabor Hill Winery and Restaurant

We stopped at Tabor Hill Winery and Restaurant on our way south last week. Located in Buchanan, about an hour and 20 minutes from our Inn. This is probably too far when staying with us, but a good lunch location when traveling to or from us from Northern Illinois or Indiana. Set in the vineyards with indoor and outdoor seating, this as a beautiful place with excellent food and wine.

We had their Cream of Asparagus Soup with Parmesan Cheese, Vidalia Onion, and Gruyere cheese:

One of the many great entrees: Pecan Breaded Raspberry Chicken with Sweet Potato Succotash and Sautéed Vegetables:
