     Martin Lake is a place with many visitors from Allegan, and you can never get enough of the nice skiing at Bittersweet. Skiing at Timber Ridge is one of those things you just have to do. A lake close by is Max Lake; camping at Spring Valley Recreation Area is always a pleasant experience. Don't stop me now, cause I'm havin' a pleasant time here at Martin Lake. Golf can be played at Cheshire Hills Golf Course, and dry warm beds await you at Econo Lodge Paw Paw.
 
   Thayer Lake is a nearby lake that you could stop by, and if you need a location to stay Comfort Inn & Suites is a perfect choice. Martin Lake is a good location of normal precipitation; the month with most of the rain is September, and the driest month of the year is February. This lake is so wonderful.

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....

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

Bittersweet
16 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....
