点评:We love Sleeping Bear dunes but hate how far away it is from us. After doing some research, I found Saugatuck Dunes which is only 2 hours from us. We planned a day trip and absolutely loved our visit. We had lunch on the beach and even made friends with a Ring-billed Gull that we named Benny. I feel like this State Park is a hidden gem because there weren’t a ton of people there. Our favorite part of this state park is that you have the best of both worlds: hiking in the woods and walking along the Lake Michigan shoreline. The trails are well kept, clean and everyone we passed was friendly. There are numerous trails to explore with the Beach Trail (yellow marker) being the easiest and fastest to the shore. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back!
翻译:我们喜欢睡熊沙丘,但讨厌它离我们太远。经过一番研究,我发现索格塔克沙丘 (Saugatuck Dunes) 距离我们仅 2 小时路程。我们计划了一日游并且非常喜欢我们的访问。我们在海滩上吃了午餐,甚至还和一只环嘴鸥交了朋友,我们给它起名叫本尼。我觉得这个州立公园是一颗隐藏的宝石,因为那里人不多。这个州立公园我们最喜欢的部分是,您可以享受两全其美的体验:在树林中徒步旅行和沿着密歇根湖海岸线漫步。小路维护得很好,很干净,我们经过的每个人都很友好。有许多小径可供探索,其中海滩小径(黄色标记)是到达海岸最简单、最快的路线。我们非常享受这次访问,一定会回来的!
