Trip Description:

They say that Holland "doesn't have a high point", so I was pleasantly surprised to find such a nice little area (albeit highly commercialized).  After parking in one of the many parking areas, walk to the summit/tri-country marker area.  The markers are clearly identified.  There are a few gift shops/restaurants here, as well as a playground.  There is a large observation tower about 50 yards down the road that provides some great views.
