Visit this cool, cultured city to commune with nature along the Grand River and Red Cedar River, with vast, pretty banks and innumerable parks for waterside relaxation and recreation.

With so much nature around, it is no wonder that Michigan's small-town scene shines brighter than its cities, where Detroit is portrayed as a gassed-up industry site. Home and roaming grounds for Tim Allen, Madonna, and Henry Ford, Michigan is famous for many things, like the four of the five Great Lakes.
