The Dunes open to drive on April 1 every year. They have great Fireworks around july 4, not always on July 4. The Barbeque and Apple Fest is always fun in September. Check out Think Dunes.com More

We spend a long weekend at Silver Lake Sand Dues every summer. We spend most of our time walking on the dunes, driving our trucks on the dunes, or relaxing at the beach on the Lake Michigan or Silver Lake side. The sunsets are amazing! More

So much to do in the area! Rent a dune buggy and cruise the dones. Swim in either Lake Michigan or Silver Lake. Have fun at Craig's Cruisers. Plenty of campgrounds to choose from or rent a cottage for the week. More

Naturalists will love the dunes and hate the dune buggies, but I have a weird affection for both. There's just something cool about watching those buggies go zooming around the sand. Red-neck fun, yes, but also way cool. More
