Lakeside Information
About Lakeside
Located on the shores of Lake Michigan, the town of Lakeside in Berrien Country is part of what is known as Harbor Country, a small area with eight charming towns of Lakeside, New Buffalo, Union Pier, Harbert, Warren Dunes, Sawyer, Three Oaks, and Michiana. Lakeside is known for its lovely scenery and rustic lifestyle, which provide great reasons for a weekend getaway. Lakeside is located in the southwest corner of Michigan and is very close to Chicago. This has made Lakeside a popular destination for Chicago residents since the 1920s. True to its name, Lakeside sits on the shores of Lake Michigan, with slightly warmer weather than Chicago. Visitors can drive to freshwater beaches to build sandcastles or go swimming.
Things to do in Lakeside
If you’re visiting Lakeside in the warmer months of the year, go to the beach! You’ll have a lovely time sitting in the warm sand relaxing or reading, and cooling off with a swim in the lake. Walk around the town center to see the coffee shops and boutiques, or to treat yourself to some ice cream in the afternoon. Visitors can also take a boat out on the water (weather permitting) and spend the afternoon sailing. If you are interested in exploring the shoreline or are looking for more of an active day, go kayaking along the lake or in one of the nearby rivers. Even in lower temperatures, a walk along the sandy dunes is always a pleasant and relaxing time. Avid golfers should check out the Chikaming Country Club, a well-maintained 18-hole course that has been open since 1913 and is currently managed by John Phillips, PGA. Once you have played through Chikaming, explore Whittaker Woods Golf Club or Grand Beach Golf Course just a couple of miles south.

Each town is quaint and full of rustic charm, and most of them are tiny enough for the visitors to see within one day.
