Delivery, carry-out or eat there (we like the double crust pizza best!). The outdoor patio often has live music and there is a little putting green for the kiddos.

Beaches and Other Fun
New Buffalo City Beach is best for when you want to walk and collect rocks/sea glass or just look at the boats. We do not generally swim there, but many people do.
The two big beaches with bathrooms and a snack shop as well as paddleboard/kayak rentals are:
1. WARREN DUNES is the biggest, with giant sand dunes. 2. WEKO BEACH is smaller but very nice. It is a bit further north, but has become our favorite. Weko has a great tradition at sunset where you can hear a trumpeter play Taps as the sun goes down - it is stunning!
There are also many free “street end” beaches between NB and Warren Dunes. Look in our Guest Info binder on the dining room buffet for a full list but our favorites are TOWNLINE BEACH and CHERRY BEACH. Please note, there are no lifeguards or restrooms at the street-end beaches. Parking is wherever you can find it on the streets nearby. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR OUR IDEAS ON OTHER FUN ACTIVITIES!
Of course for the gaming, but also for great food, live music, even a kids arcade and daycare service so parents and kids can both have fun.

Beautiful hiking and nature areas. The “treehouse” lookout tower is a stunning way to view the Galien River! Great for a short walk or a few hours hike, whichever suits your mood.
