If you’re into Michigan architecture, you’ve probably heard about the Charlevoix Mushroom Houses.
Scattered across the small city of Charlevoix, Michigan, are a series of unique houses known as the “Mushroom Houses.” Sometimes referred to as “Hobbit Houses,” “Gnome Houses,” “Harry Potter Houses,” “Hansel and Gretel Houses,” and several other nicknames, these structures are organic in appearance and blend well with the surrounding landscapes.

The holiday season is upon us in Michigan, which means its time for the Magic of Lights show at Pine Knob Music Theatre, 33 Bob Seger Dr., Clarkston, MI.
Grab your loved ones and hop in the car to experience one of the state’s most dazzling drive-thru light displays, featuring favorite holiday scenes and characters of the season created with LED technology and digital animations.
Best of all you can enjoy the festivities without braving the snow and cold!

As the snow begins to fall across Michigan, it’s time to gear up for some Michigan-style winter fun.

Whether that means relaxing at a cozy bed and breakfast with a warm whirlpool tub, taking a sleigh ride across a snowy field of rolling hills, or skiing down a perfectly-groomed mountainside, you can find a perfect winter getaway in Michigan.

The small city of Port Huron sits on the shore at the meeting point between Lake Huron and the St. Clair River. This location and the maritime history associated with it has granted Port Huron the title of the “Maritime Capital of the Great Lakes.” Much of the culture and recreation in Port Huron revolves around the water, including a historically significant lighthouse, plenty of ship-watching, boat races, and more. Moving away from the water, visitors are welcome to explore a broad collection of museums, downtown riverfront dining, shopping, and more. 

It’s the holiday season, and there’s no better place to celebrate Christmas in Michigan than Frankenmuth. From the elaborate Christmas light displays to the fairytale-like Glockenspiel Tower, a Frankenmuth Christmas is a Hallmark movie come to life.

What better way to celebrate the season than with a quick family vacation or romantic getaway to Frankenmuth, MI?

Greenfield Village, located just outside of Detroit Michigan, is one of the top tourist destinations in both Michigan and the Midwest. At almost 250 acres, this sprawling, living museum features a glimpse of the past of American life.
