    My friends and I stopped by here after hearing such wonderful and fun things about this place! Turns out it was drag show night which was SO GOOD. We all had a blast and it was definitely a highlight of our trip being here!

    6/2/19 The Dunes Resort is a LGBT Resort in Saugatuck, Michigan. I love the location and I love Saugatuck. It's a very LGBT friendly town. Lots of rainbow flags all around, which makes you feel comfortable if you don't have many towns like that. The Dunes Resort is a very nice place. Large pool and a big entertainment area where they put on shows and events. I went to the Dunes for a Womxn Weekend. Go Girl Saugatuck. I love this event. I love that the Dunes holds this event. However, outside of this event, the Dunes is about 80% men and 20% women and on Go Girl Weekend it's about 70% women and 30% men. It's nice for the change but I wish it was more 50/50 throughout the year but it's not. Maybe it's because most of their events throughout the year attract men. I am not sure but I would lean more towards that idea. Atmosphere: Clean, Love the rooms and pool area. The big event area is nice and colorful. I feel very safe there. Cost: It is kind of pricey, but it includes a lot of things in the cost plus it is in Saugatuck, so you are kind of paying for the town, being close to the beach, and in a nice area. The resort has nice rooms and lots to offer. Overall: I will give this place 4 stars. I wish it offered more events that target women but overall, it's nice and I will be going back to Go Girl.

    Firstly, The only reason it's a four not a five yet is because I have not experienced their resort hotel rooms. I absolutely love that there's lots of free parking on property. There are lots of trees along the street to screen gawkers. We are usually here during the holidays which means tea dance parties. You enter by the main door and the dance music immediately takes you. The inside dance floor is immediately to the left when you enter. when you walk through the main bar, you can walk out into their adjoining pool area and an enormous two level open-air dance. This is where the Tea Dance magic happens, especially when there's a live DJ. There is a pool area (no glassware allowed in the area) and there is also a store for your souvenir and sexy look needs. I attached two photos DURING THE TEA DANCE, i cannot attest to what it's like on a non tea dance day

    See all

    Awesome place for LGBT+ community. The pool party was packed and the drinks were strong!

It was not from a lack of want, but rather a combo of few different roadblocks: having other things going on when we were in town or not having programming that we were interested in when we were there or just not having anything scheduled at that time full stop. But we finally made it here for a bit this summer and it was as great as expected. First off, I still have not seen a show here, which is a great failing of ours, but we did explore the grounds and the building. It was a Friday afternoon and we were able to enjoy the farmer's and artisan's market going on in the parking lot. It's not a huge market but they do have multiple vendors covering the things you'd go look for--fresh fruits and veggies, eggs, honey and jams, etc. We had a great time checking out the stalls and vendors all nestled in between the beautiful blooming gardens around the building. Afterwards, we head inside the building to check it out. There wasn't much activity but we were lucky enough to see a few artists' gallery showcases which were moving and really engaging. It was an inspiring visit and we've made it our pledge to make sure we get to some performance there this year. I can't wait to see a show there!

A group of six of us stopped in for lunch recently and sat on the upstairs deck which was lovely. We were seated at two round tables pushed together which didn't make for the best conversation flow, but we enjoyed the nice weather and atmosphere. Our server was awesome - super kind and helpful with suggestions and on top of service. I ordered the BLT & T wrap with fries, which was pretty tasty. The lettuce was fresh and crisp, and I liked the accompanying cup of ranch. It was also a large portion- I ended up eating the whole thing since were were walking around afterwards and I didn't want to have to carry my leftovers. I was super full! The menu is pretty basic but it did the trick. It was fun hearing some of the bands at night playing here while we were walking around the area.

We ordered the calamari, which was cold and tiny portion. The wedge salad was just some lettuce, not a wedge, with a few tomatoes, onions and blue cheese for $14. Not worth it. Next time we wait the hour for Butler. The server brought the check and asked about dessert while we were all still eating which was annoying. We heard another table comment on that as well.
