Golf can be played at Shamrock Hills Golf Club, and since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always explore close by Mill Lake. This lake is so wonderful. A good close by hotel is Econo Lodge Paw Paw, and if you come at the right time of year, Kalamazoo River  
   offers some pleasant whitewater. You're sure to come across some cheerful folks from Kalamazoo-Portage here; not far from Lyle Lake you'll hit upon Skunk Lake which is a beautiful lake.

MORE STUFF NEARBY:

Timber Ridge
It is not very big, but all of the employees are cool and you never have to wait in line to get on the lift. They sometimes seem to overestimate the amount of snow that they have also. I sometimes wonder if they actually measure the snowpiles that have been plowed in the parking lot instead of what is actually on the hill....

Buell Lake
If you see all-star water sports being performed, just know it's me....

Tri-ponds Family Camp Resort
12 miles away
Nice clean campground for young families, older kids might be bored except for using the pool.  (…) wireless internet is a pay service after 30 minutes (…).  Rates run $25 -$35 a night....Tri Ponds is a wonderful place! There are many fun things you can do at Tri Ponds!!There are many cemented paths through Tri Ponds for all you joggers, skaters, and skateboarders!!I've camped there all my life and it is an awesome place!...

Bittersweet
14 miles away
Bittersweet has enormous snow-making capacity and is consistently the first to open in SW Michigan. Their vertical is only 350 ft, but that's about 100 more than any other resort in SW Michigan. As noted, their lift system is impressive, particularly the high speed detachable quad, but lines can get a little long on late December weekends. Their terrain park has a good variety of boxes, jumps, etc. Very friendly people....Yea you guys rock i love the snow...Ahh yes, Bittersweet Ski Area... Michigan skiing at it's very best. The drops in these part of the country are not that impressive but I think Bittersweet makes the most of it. I do recommend this ski area....
