    Saugatuck Harbor is formed by a dredged entrance channel and the lower part of the Kalamazoo River. A radar dome on Mt. Baldhead, about 1 mile S of the entrance, is prominent. The entrance channel leads between parallel piers and upstream about 2.1 miles to Saugatuck. The outer ends of the piers are marked by lights.  Caution: Submerged pilings at the former channel entrance of the river extend into the lake about 200 ft. and are marked by a buoy.

Full services are available.
