Newaygo

The Newaygo community is a vibrant hub in Newaygo County where history, recreation, and community life come together. Anchored by the Muskegon River flowing through the heart of downtown, Newaygo has long been shaped by the water and the opportunities it creates for residents, businesses, and visitors.

Newaygo hosts a full calendar of community events that celebrate its heritage and bring people together throughout the year. Signature events include Memorial Weekend activities, Clover Crawl, the Logging Festival, Kids' Day, and the Christmas Walk. These events highlight local businesses, honor tradition, and reflect the strong community spirit that defines Newaygo.

Downtown Newaygo features locally owned shops, restaurants, and services, many with views of the river or easy access to trails and outdoor recreation. The community’s walkable downtown and scenic setting make it a destination for both day visitors and those looking to live and work along the river.

With the Muskegon River at its center and community traditions woven throughout the year, Newaygo is a place to gather, celebrate, and call home.
