Saugatuck Antique Pavilion

To be fair this was my first time in any Antique Store so I don’t have anything to use as a comparison but I loved this place.
It was huge and filled with tons of amazing things. I always thought Antique Stores would be full of garbage nobody wants but I was wrong. This place was so cool, I could have easily spent another hour or two searching for treasures.
HIGHLY Recommend stopping here and searching through the isles of things to see what you might find!

Huge antique mall with many dealers and a great assortment of items. Bigger than you would imagine so allot some time if you go. Some good stuff, some junk just like any other antique mall. I thought the prices were reasonable for most items. Nice assortment of items– everything from furniture to jewelry, some vintage clothing, lots of wall décor. Friendly and helpful employees. Attached to the saugatuk brewing company next door. If you buy something from the antique mall you can get 10% off food purchase at the brewery. Easy parking.

Huge rotating selection of Antiques and random stuff. I was kind if thrown off when i seen a Blade 2 dvd for sale. Its a good place to sight see for sureee

If you need somewhere to browse because it’s too hot outside, this place is good for that. Other than that, it’s almost like any other antique mall that I’ve been to in other cities. It’s worth a stop if you LOVE antiques, but it’s a pretty average place.

Very large amount and variety of cool stuff. See added stuff every time I visit. Would recommend to everyone. I only wish they’d stay open later than 6 on the weekend.

Great pieces and fair prices.

Hands down, one of the best antique stores I have ever visited. There is a little bit (or a lot) of everything, from all eras here. It’s a dealer/​vendor booth set up and each section is differently priced. There are several employees who walk around with keys to unlock cases and they are equally helpful and funny. I will definitely return!

Big place, big selection. They have a little bit of everything, and an elderly staff wandering around trying to be useful. It’s right off the highway, so worth a stop.

Just had another great experience at this Antique Mall. I’ve been coming to Saugatuck (from Chicago) for years and have loved adding in stops at this antique mall to our regular /​favorite Saugatuck activities.
What I like about the Mall is there’s pretty much something for everyone. I tend to look for pretty, novel pieces to put into my home. But, there are enough dealers around that I’ve gotten a lot smarter about the heritage of some of the pieces I’ve liked.
Some malls can feel musty/​empty and this one never does. Some malls seem to skew towards a certain type of furniture — and, if it’s not your style, you’re out of luck. This mall is just so much bigger than most of the others that there are more people around who can help you navigate the world of antiques … and there is so much choice if you’re just shopping.
The booths are great with lots of different types of merchandise there. Recently, I finally spent some time in the jewelry/​watch display cases and actually loved several pieces. I was nervous about buying an antique watch (because I don’t know much about them) but the owner called the dealer so i could get more information and negotiate price.
The location couldn’t be better/​easier … as it’s on Blue Start Highway, the main road to get you from the highway to Saugatuck. Totally easy in /​out. My husband often is reluctant to add in stops (especially when we’re on track to leave town) but this is so easy that he doesn’t mind.
It’s also nice that they have clean bathrooms, easy in/​out parking. The owner and the staff will even help carry things out to the car if you need help, etc. Snaps to the Sauguatuck Brewery which is right next store … local brew and nice lunch spot. It’s a fun combo visit to grab a bite and then drift through the Antique Mall.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen… There’s been an exodus of dealers out of this mall over the past few months. I was told by dealers that it’s because the current owners have jacked up the cost of selling so high in this mall that they can’t make enough money to make it worth it to keep their booths there.
My husband and I were there yesterday and there were several booths with «This booth for rent» signs and the booths just stuffed with a few pieces of random furniture to fill empty spaces. We saw a dealer moving out while we were there, loading her stuff on a trolley and hauling it out. Another dealer stopped to talk to her and suggested she see about getting a booth at another antiques mall nearby, adding that the owners at that mall «are nice.»
The dealers who’ve moved out have taken a lot of the true antiques and quality antiques with them. The proportion of junk to antiques has tilted and made this place a disappointment.
Prices are also very high here, though we Michiganders get it that it’s because the tourists go here, so if they’re getting $$$ out of the annoying Chicago people, we’re all for it, we just go there to walk around and browse and do our actual antique buying at the great antiques spots the locals know and frequent.

We love antiquing, so the booth after booth after booth of fascinating wares was just our cup of tea. Furniture, jewelry, clothing, dining, industrial, memorabilia, books, records, and other wild finds– they have a huge selection that doesn’t get old. On our way up to the lake house, we popped in for a few hours on a whim and were very surprised how much there was to consider. We ended up grabbing some tip-​top vinyl, including a Beatles Hey Jude album in mint condition, for a very affordable price. What a lovely way to spend an afternoon! We will definitely be back.

One of my favorite places to while away a few hours. Actually, a few hours is an understatement. It’s easy to lose yourself here. Aisles and aisles of old games, knickknacks, art work, furniture, magazines and more. Each cubby is filled with treasures to pour through. Whether you like victorian, retro, or art deco there’s something style-​wise for everyone here.
Each «booth» is filled by a dedicated collector/​seller which means each booth has a personality and style of it’s own. If you don’t what you see just slide on down to the next one. No carts or baskets, instead the very helpful staff walks around with huge rings of keys and clothes pins with numbers. They take your items from your hands and put them in a cubby, then give you a clothespin with the corresponding cubby number written on it. When you’re ready to check out you go up to the counter and give them your number. From there they take everything in your cubby and ring you up. Easy peasy and makes browsing a breeze since you don’t have to be pushing around a cart the whole time.
In the many years I’ve been coming here I’ve bought prints, ceramic planters and figurines, shelves, cook and bakeware, and a particularly amazing cuckoo clock for just $ 35; my fella just bought a stack of records for a decent price.
Prices vary since they’re based on what each seller decides. In recent visits I’ve found the prices to be a little higher than I would consider paying but if you’re looking for unique, one of a kind, antique pieces to fill your home this is definitely a spot worth visiting.

What a great (huge!!) place, kind of in the middle of no where. They did have a system to get around the store, including colored rugs (ex. booth 53 red), yes thats how big it is! You will find something you have to have.

Nice stuff, tons of choices! Go Look for Sally, she has amazing books and trinkets.

Excellent mix of great vintage and antiques. Back rooom. Has some questionable art but the rest is great. Helpful and friendly staff.

This place is huge and has every kind of antique you can think of! It took us about 3.75 hours just to walk through and have a look at all of the wonderful antiques.
There are a ton of different little «shops» with each little shop booth being a different antique seller. It appears that the booths are re-​stocked often, as while we were there, we saw a number of different dealers there adding merchandise to their booth.
The antiques offered varied greatly by shop and there was everything from old advertisements/​prints/​postcards/​maps to vintage sewing patterns to old books to furniture to clothes to kitchen items. Everything is clearly marked by which shop it’s from and the price.
The employees are very helpful. They are always walking around asking if you want them to open glass cases to inspect items more closely. One employee saw me struggling to hold my items and offered to take them to the front for me to purchase when I was done shopping.
After my long shopping trip, my haul consisted of:
1. A mini loaf pan ($ 1.00)
2. A vintage map of Chicago ($ 3)
3. A 1957 postcard depicting Belmont Harbor ($ 2)
4. A light blue tinted huge Bell jar with flip top lid ($ 7)
5. An antique kitchen scale (my big splurge of the day at $ 16)
Not bad.
I really loved this place and am so sad it’s so far away. If I lived nearby, I’d be here often checking for the latest additions to the inventory.
