Explore the internationally celebrated Tulip Time Festival, marked with millions of tulips in stunning bloom. Outside the annual festival that draws over 500,000 people each year, you’ll find the same down-home, friendly feel running throughout the community’s veins at restaurants like the New Holland Brewing Company and Crazy Horse Steakhouse. Step inside an authentic working windmill at Windmill Island Gardens and get an unparalleled panoramic view of Holland Harbor and Lake Macatawa at Mt. Pisgah. Bite into a made-from-scratch Pig in the Blanket at Russ’s and discover the best places to spend your day on or near the water with a rental from Holland Water Sports.
