Part of the Gay Saugatuck Guide — bars, events & things to do.
Saugatuck, Michigan
Barn café and bike rentals right on the Blue Star Trail
Blue Star Barns is a coffee shop and bike rental housed in an actual barn off the Blue Star Highway in Saugatuck, one of the Midwest's most established LGBTQ+ vacation towns. Espresso drinks, locally sourced baked goods, and Michigan wine are served inside and on the patio, while out back, traditional bikes and e-bikes rent by the hour. The location sits directly across from the Blue Star Trail, a 20-mile paved path connecting Saugatuck to South Haven — ride into town in minutes or loop the rolling countryside. On the second weekend of each month from May through November, the barns host pop-up markets with vintage finds, antiques, pottery, handmade jewelry, and food trucks. Bikes available daily 10am–6pm.

We verified 32 LGBTQ+ campgrounds in the US, from 700-acre men's retreats in the Ozarks to a women-only resort in Michigan's Thumb. This guide covers every one we could verify from the campground's own website: who's welcome, what clothing optional means there, what you can sleep in, what it costs and when the season runs.

The Village People were created by a gay producer as a set of gay fantasy characters and launched to gay disco audiences, but the members themselves differ. Here is what each has said on the record, and the two readings of YMCA.
