Things to Do in Michigan in March

March is here! I always let out a sign of relief for March. Spring and its welcoming flowers are just around the corner! Even though half the month is still winter, it’s the spirit and expectation of spring that makes me excited. And without further ado, here are the things to do in Michigan in March!

From Saint Patrick’s day celebrations to maple syrup festivals (yum!), and from late winter fests to welcome spring events, there is plenty to look forward to in March 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!

Day Trip to Montague & Whitehall

The first outing my family and I went on after our son was born was a day trip to Montague and Whitehall. These two charming small towns are close to larger west Michigan cities but far enough away to feel like we escaped to somewhere new. Plus, both towns never feel busy compared to traditional West Michigan tourist towns like Grand Haven, Holland, or Ludington.

In this article, I detail all you can do during a day trip to Montague and Whitehall.
