South Haven was one of Michigan's top resort towns at the turn of the 20th century, quickly becoming known throughout the United States as the "Catskills of the Midwest." Today, the town still draws tourists in droves to its beautiful recreational beaches and harbor, showcasing gorgeous panoramic lakeshore landscapes and historic sites such as the preserved South Haven Lighthouse. Visitors can explore nearby park areas such as Van Buren State Park or bike along the lovely Kal-Haven Trail, which connects to nearby Kalamazoo. The Liberty Hyde Bailey Museum preserves the childhood home of the noted botanist, who co-founded the American Society for Horticultural Science.
