Day Trip to Ludington: Big Sable Lighthouse in the background and me in front

Day Trip to Ludington

Ludington is another gorgeous town on Michigan’s west coast boarding Lake Michigan. While a day trip to Ludington is perfect if you live not too far, I highly recommend an overnight stay or two as there’s a lot to explore here. Ludington is a town I frequently visited in the summer with friends growing up so it’s always fun returning to see familiar favorites (hello House of Flavors), and new things!

Also, this day trip is perfect in any season, but we visited during the spring.

Fun Things to Do in Greater Grand Rapids

When my family isn’t out on a day trip somewhere, we usually find one or two fun things to do in the greater Grand Rapids area. Since I live nearby, Grand Rapids is an area I’m extremely knowledgeable about.

Whether you’re a GR local, Michigander seeking something fun to do in Grand Rapids during a day trip, or visitor from out of state, I hope this list inspires you to check out something new outside of downtown Grand Rapids.

Saugatuck Scavenger Hunt

Recently, my family and I traveled to Saugatuck, a beach town along Lake Michigan we visit a few times each year. As we walked around the adorable downtown, I kept noticing things I never spotted before. Where they new? Some yes, but many I just never slowed down enough to take the time to notice. I’m passionate about finding the hidden gems in each town. But what to do when a town is full of hidden gems?! A burst of inspiration came upon me – put together a Saugatuck Scavenger Hunt!
