Three Oaks, Michigan
What else can I say about Three Oaks, Michigan which has not been said, broadcast nor written? From the Chicago Tribune to several HGTV shows and even Chicago spotlights such as 190 North; Three Oaks, Michigan is the place to be if cultural highlights are your forte. Three Oaks, Michigan is my second Harbor Country home. I live in Lakeside, Michigan, but my heart and the majority of my friends are in Three Oaks. New Buffalo may have the marina and the other beach towns may have the sand and surf, but if you are looking for something to do Three Oaks delivers!
Three Oaks, Michigan the place to find movies, live performance and really good meat! You have not lived until you've tried Drier's bacon, liverbest and bratwurst! Three Oaks, with fabulous restaurants, deli's and even a saloon! That's right, a good old fashioned saloon with free popcorn, great burgers and lively conversation. Just ask for Carrie at Nelson's Saloon, she'll set you up. Bailey's Cafe' is the place where people not only get a great meal, it's the place to see and be seen. Come see what Alberto's been cooking up, Tim will gladly save you a seat!
Entertainment, Three Oaks style: Dave Fink and Kim Clark took a forlorn factory and made it into a world class performance venue. With choices such as rock, opera and folk music to jazz, disco and drama, you will always be left wanting more when you are entertained at the Acorn Theater. Why would you even bother to travel to Cannes or the Sundance film festivals when you can see the same films at the Vickers Movie House. John and Jennifer Vickers poured their hearts into creating a magical place where expression and art tantalize the mind. If your idea of entertainment is spending a lazy day in the park under the tall oaks reading, then you must wander into the big pink victorian house at the corner of Elm and Sycamore. Rick and Donna will sell you a book, then go to Froehlichs get a few items to nibble on and spend your day at Dewey Canon Park. Bring a portable radio and tune it to 106.7 FM because Three Oaks has it's very own radio station with programming as eclectic as the town.

When is the last time you went to an authentic Farmer's Market? Guess what, Three Oaks has one! Locally grown produce, some organic, are offered for your enjoyment and your culinary genius.
