Grocery Stores in Bear Lake, MI

“Bear Lake doesn't haveuch but I always find something random that I didn't know I needed like hand sanitizer that's normally $6 or more for only $1.56 at this store. They offer bulk food items, homemade breads and other baked goods. If you're a camper like I am every summer, this place has essentials and snacks. Do look at expirations, some items are a few month expired which is why it's inexpensive. But if you don't mind granola bars 3 months past expiration date - then it's fine. My kids don't know the difference and it's usually a guide line/suggestion than a set in stone this item is bad, it's not. Would recommend to stop at and check out.”

“Very nice Amish store absolutely enjoyed walking in and seeing everything very clean while taking care of. Have lots of good variety of stuff like candies and baking stuff meats milk all sorts of goodies if you're looking for a real down-to-earth place to look for food and a good deal this is one place to go.”

“This store is so cool! They have a banana tree! They seriously have something for everyone. The wild life on the walls is so unique and fun to look at. The staff was super friendly too.”

“Saddle Up was our home base during our busy ski weekend up north. Staff greeted us with kindness and good humor whether we were in before sunrise or late night. Delicious coffee and quick bites, but a wide selection of proper groceries as well. Shout out to Andrea for holding down the fort during these frigid snowy mornings. Hope to be back soon!”

“This is a pretty standard Dollar General, but this location has a few extras that make it especially convenient. You’ll find all of the usual Dollar General basics—household supplies, cleaning products, toiletries, snacks, drinks, canned goods, pantry staples, and a good amount of seasonal merchandise.

One thing that sets this location apart from some smaller Dollar General stores is the fresh produce section. It isn’t huge, but they carry a useful selection of fruits and vegetables, including bananas, potatoes, onions, avocados, tomatoes, citrus, and other basics. If you only need a few ingredients for dinner, it could definitely save you a trip to a larger grocery store.

They also have a fairly substantial refrigerated beer section with a variety of domestic, craft, and imported options. There were considerably more choices than I expected to find in a Dollar General.

The store also had a large seasonal section when I visited, with plenty of Halloween and fall decorations already on display. The layout is typical for Dollar General, and there’s a surprisingly wide variety of merchandise packed into the space.

Overall, there’s nothing particularly fancy about this location, but that really isn’t the point. It’s a convenient neighborhood store with the everyday essentials you expect, plus fresh produce and a good beer selection. A solid option when you need groceries or household items without making a full supermarket run.”
