The Village of Mattawan - your place to call home

Mattawan is located in the northeast corner of Antwerp Township in Van Buren County, just 43 miles east of Lake Michigan, 150 miles west of Detroit and 150 miles east of Chicago. The Village is served by the major east-west transportation routes of I-94 and Red Arrow Highway. These routes provide major access to and through Michigan and Indiana, as well as the Midwest. Nearby cities include Benton Harbor-St. Joseph 38 miles to the southwest; Grand Rapids 60 miles to the north; and South Bend, Indiana, 72 miles to the southwest. 

Its proximity to the Kalamazoo area just 7 miles away lends to its economic support. Its local economy is supported by a strong manufacturing base, including plastic products and pharmaceutical research & development.  The Village of Mattawan has a small town, rural character. It offers small-town charm in the downtown area, which features a shady city park on one side of the main street area and a row of unique shops and eating establishments. The original core of the Village is centered around its traditional downtown “Main Street”.

Ambleside Condominiums are located within a few hundred yards of all three Mattawan schools and are therefore in easy walking distance.
