Why River Country?
River Country Chamber of Commerce of Newaygo County is made up of the former Croton-Hardy Business Alliance, Grant Area, Newaygo Area and White Cloud Area Chambers of Commerce. We are home to three unspoiled rivers, two immense dams, and dozens of pristine lakes spoiling residents and visitors with endless choices to paddle, boat, fish, sail, hike, shop, live and work alongside nature.
We see water on our daily commute to the office, and because of terrific broadband infrastructure in Downtown Newaygo, Grant, White Cloud and Fremont many of us simply skip the commute altogether and just look outside. We have dinner out on waterfront restaurant decks and take sunset walks on hiking paths that only deer enjoyed just about 150 years ago. It’s why we’re home to international sports competitions, world class fly fishing, and one of the best tourism destinations in Michigan. It’s also why so many who first come as visitors now make this area their home. We are also just a short drive from as much big city life as you like: Provided of course, you want to leave us at all… River Country Go Exploring!
