Getaway to Ann Arbor
From stopping to smell the peonies to exploring works of public art, we saw a lot during our recent getaway to Ann Arbor, Michigan. Ann Arbor is more than just a college town – home to the University of Michigan. It is one of Michigan’s cultural and artistic hubs. It’s also a beautiful green city with lots of tall, old trees. Buildings and towering historic stone churches blend right into the leafy skyline. If you love parks and trails, you’ll be spoiled for choice on which to start with.
My family and I don’t often travel over to southeast Michigan so we made the most of our time here. If you enjoy art and nature, this is the perfect destination for you. And if that isn’t enough, everyone we interacted with was extremely friendly! Read on to discover some of the best attractions to explore in Ann Arbor.
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.
