In SAWYER, SOJOURN (sojour-
nastore.com) has transformed what
once was a run-down grocery store.
The owners, who fell in love with the
area and transplanted from nearby
Chicago, have carefully curated a
collection of vintage finds, unique
designer pieces, locally crafted jew-
elry and more.
In HARBERT — where Carl
Sandburg spent summers and wrote
much of his Pulitzer Prize-winning
biography of Abraham Lincoln —
you can find one of the best antiques
shops around: MARCO POLO
(marcopoloaniques.com) is where
antique meets modern, equally at
home offering mid-century mod-
ern, primitive, industrial and rural
designs.
Head south toward LAKESIDE
and check out the gorgeously crafted
furniture made from the reclaimed
wood of barns, old buildings and
discarded trees at HEARTHVVOOD
CUSTOM FURNISHING
(hearthwoods.com).
Refuel on chicken sriracha sliders,
fish tacos — and assorted hot dogs
— at the STRAY DOG

(thestraydog.com ; check out the
picturesque rooftop bar) in NEW
BUFFALO.
While you're in town, stop in at
OINK'S ICE CREAM AND YO-
GURT (oinksicecream.blogspot.
corn) for a scoop of Cotton Candy
Confetti, Chocolate Malt Supreme
or Georgia Peach while gazing at the
ceiling plastered with pig memora-
bilia.
Also in New Buffalo is MIX &
MINGLE (mixandmingledesign.
corn), a home-furnishings shop
brimming with eclectic blends of
modern, primitive and traditional
furniture.
Want more? Wrap it all up with a
daytrip within your vacation: Head
north (just over an hour's drive)
to the area's more celebrated (and
crowded) twin cities of
SAUGATUCK and DOUGLAS,
or pick up a self-guiding map to
explore a trail of more than a dozen
wineries through LAKE MICHI-
GAN SHORE WINE COUNTRY
(lakemichiganshorewinetrail.com ).
Or head southwest, also just over
an hour, for a visit to Chicago. RT
