Editor's Review
These side-by-side Lake Michigan shore villages are so artsy, residents take for granted having their portraits painted.
Their likenesses hang in one of the 40 galleries that liberally mingle with an appealing collection of boutiques. Visitors not only find original art adorning studio windows, but also they get accustomed to encountering sculptures on almost every corner in Saugatuck (population: 1,050) and Douglas (population: 1,200). Artists set up easels among the swimmers and sunbathers enjoying the crescent of white sand to capture Oval Beach (considered one of the country's best) on canvas. Summer also brings an acclaimed film festival and jazz- and chamber-music series.
