New Richmond was first a lumber town then a railroad town. Later, it found success in the tourist industry in the late eighteen hundreds. It was the hub for train and steamer traffic to Douglas and Saugatuck with stagecoach service to Holland. It was also the site of an early
trading post before 1836, making New Richmond one of the oldest
settlements in the area. The Old Allegan Road was a Native American
trail and the river an important trade route. The former New Richmond Hotel
is now The New Richmond House. It was restored and updated as
a weekly & weekend rental lodge in 1999. The Old Church to
the North of the house is available for larger parties, receptions
or other events. The old Post Office next door plans to be open
this year as a gift shop and historic destination. as well as
offering snacks and refreshments on its covered front walk. The river is designated as a
wild river and marsh upstream for more than twelve miles. The New Richmond House is ready to welcome you for an enjoyable stay. We hope to hear from you soon! Call now for reservations and availability; 269-227-3574 |
