Opening for the Season May 22, 2026

THE KEY WEST
OF THE MIDWEST
If the flag is flying, we’re open!
Welcome to The Red Dock, the coolest spot on the lakeshore and the only literal on-the-water bar and restaurant in Saugatuck and Douglas. We aren't just near the water—we are on it. Whether you’re docking your boat or walking down from town, our quirky, high-energy wharf cafe is the quintessential Michigan summer experience.
Pub Grub, Famous Sangria, and Rum Punch
Come for the atmosphere, stay for the American pub grub and legendary drinks. Grab one of our signature ham sandwiches and a cold Sangria, or pair a classic hot dog with our fan-favorite Rum Punch. It’s simple, fresh, and exactly what a day on the lake requires.


The Home of Sunday Funday & Live Music
In Saugatuck/Douglas, the term "Sunday Funday" was practically invented right here on our deck. Every Sunday throughout the summer, we host the best live music on the water, turning the harbor into the biggest party on the lakeshore. Just remember: we play hard and we close early. We’ll throw you out before the sun goes down, so make sure to get here while the party is peaking!
OUR FAMILY OF ENTERTAINMENT
Stop by our sister spaces!
Rent a boat at Retro Boat and Pontoon Rentals, or sit waterside and enjoy the boating traffic at The Old Boat House
