Strolling through the downtown area, you will see a variety of shops, art galleries and eateries. There is great shopping in such fun stores as Air Fun/Pentwater Toy Box. Art galleries feature works of local and national artists. Great food or yummy treats scattered throughout the town. (Try well-known gourmet popcorn or classic treats from Cosmic Candy/Pentwater Popcorn.) Special events take place throughout the year, including the annual judged fine art fair, Pentwater Homecoming Celebration in August and Christmas shopping open house. There is always something to see or do at any time, for any age or taste.

In addition, a stay in this quaint town gives you access to many more activities. Pentwater is just a stone’s throw from the off-road adventures found in Shelby, Hart, Mears and the Silver Lake Sand Dunes and a short drive from beautiful Ludington.

The close proximity, wide variety and Victorian charm make Pentwater a truly wonderful place to visit any time of year. Just one visit to Pentwater will make you want to return time and time again.
