Thanks, I will check those places out as well! Local knowledge is a big help. We will work on the oct thing when it gets closer, just wanted to plant a seed!First things first, idk if I will be able to make it this year in October, I actually believe I'll be heading back to Chicago area for work again here soon. But I will see when it gets closer.
As to your first question. I believe any of those places are nice. Out of those listed I'd rank them as Holland, Grand Haven, South Haven. Holland has lots of rentals within walking distance of the beach along Ottawa Beach Rd. Another town to think about is Saugatuck, it can be pricey but it is a nice little town and that's where my Mother in Law takes all of her guests because she loves it so much. Another place that people go is Ludington area. Personally I haven't spent any time up there but I know lots of people that do and they are always talking positive about it. Also look at Benton Harbor, at first glance the town seems kinda run down but ever since the Senior PGA Championship was played there the downtown area has really been revitalized, and it's pretty close to drive home. And finally if you are willing to make the drive my favorite summer destination is Petosky. Lots of golf, beautiful views, the weather is normally on the cooler side. Plenty of shops. Maybe an hour from Traverse City which is another great town for shops and what not, but I find TC a little to touristy.
Hope it helps.
