Things to Do in Hickory Corners During Christmas

Discover the things to do in Hickory Corners during Christmas. This small town along Gull Lake in southwestern Michigan is a place I wanted to travel to for the past couple years. It is home to the WK Kellogg Manor House, the former summer residence of the cereal magnate WK Kellogg. And a short drive away from the Gilmore Car Museum, home to North America’s largest auto museum. While researching Christmas attractions in Michigan, I discovered both the manor and museum hold Christmas events. What better way to spend a day then by visiting both attractions during a Christmas themed day trip in Michigan.

Interesting Historic Places in Downtown Muskegon

Muskegon received nationwide attention on the History Channel’s TV Show The Curse of Civil War Gold. My husband enjoyed watching the show, and after a few episodes, it made me want to check out all the interesting historic places in downtown Muskegon too!

Before going, I did a lot of research into the buildings and sculptures in downtown Muskegon. I looked at records in the National Registrar of Historic Places as well as newspaper records. In total, downtown Muskegon’s historic district is not large – about 6 blocks. It took us a couple hours to complete our tour. So it’s a great place to explore on a day trip!
