Silver Lake is halfway between Muskegon & Ludington. Both have Lake Michigan ferries, well-known for the sand dunes & all the lake amenities: jet ski rental, pontoon boats, great skiing (the dunes block the NW prevailing wind & allow for glass somewhere on the lake). Just 5 minutes by car to 2 large expanses of public beach, Little Stable Light House, & the Township Park that has a warm, flowing knee-deep sandy channel for kids to play in all day. Take your SUV into the dunes all the way to Lake Michigan, dune 1/4 racing, go carts (3 tracks!), video arcades (safe for kids of all ages), 3 ice cream stands...
Other Activities: Go carts tracks, video arcades, ATV rentals, Jet Ski rentals, tubing,
Golf: Beautiful golf courses Benona is a beautiful course cut through the orchards meticulously maintained...very inexpensive...
