Holiday Rentals In Michigan

Welcome to our selection of holiday rentals in Michigan.

Imagine a place with over 11,000 inland lakes and more than 36,000 miles of streams! Add to that 4 of the 5 Great Lakes and you have the state of Michigan. In fact, standing anywhere in the state, a person is less than 85 miles from one of the Great Lakes. With 116 lighthouses and navigational lights to direct ships, is it any wonder that the Spanish, British, French and American flags have flown over this beautiful land? It’s a land that has the hustle and bustle of a busy metropolis coexisting peacefully with beautiful nature.

Some of the spotlights of Michigan are well worth a visit for the traveler in you. We all have a child in, if not along with us. The Silver Beach Carousal lets you choose from an array of 48 magnificent hand carved figures as you spin and soar to uplifting music under a 1000 glittering lights! Then, head to the Curious Kids’ Museum, which is sure to arouse our curiosity with educational exhibits and programs. It challenges our senses and offers a unique learning experience. The Olde World Canterbury Village, as the name suggests, is a designated historical site that offers yearlong attractions for the family.

Besides this, the Upper Peninsula region offers a host of activities for every kind of traveler. There is a shipwreck museum that tells the stories of sailors and ships that braved but lost to the menacing waters of lake Superior. The firefighters among us can head to the Firefighters Memorial Museum to appreciate exhibits from over a century of firefighting history. With so much water around, could a Maritime Museum be far behind? Head to the Marquette Maritime Museum for a slice of maritime history.

Besides these, there are Fishing charters that indulge the angler, a butterfly park with varieties from all over the world and specialized kayaking trips.

The central region is a different sphere of entertainment altogether. There is a Mirror Maze that the whole family can enjoy where one encounters surprising corners, dead ends and continuous circles! From here, head to the Antique Toy and Firehouse Museum to enjoy more than 12,000 antique and collectible toys. Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland is the world’s largest Christmas store where you can indulge in some gifts. Along with this there are river cruises, zoos and theme and aquatic gardens where one can have a whale of a time.

The southern region offers no less with the Henry Ford Museum along with the Abrahms Planetarim, which offers three-dimensional simulations. The Air Museum, Holocaust Memorial all help to give the traveler a good time.

We are sorry but at the present time we do not have any holiday rentals available in Michigan.

Some of the zoo’s top attractions are the Chimpanzee Exhibit, one of the largest of its type in the country, The Lions exhibit which is also a large exhibit but is also one of the few places where lions have been observed climbing trees. Some of the zoo’s activities include zipline rides, swan paddleboats, camel rides and the ‘sky trail ropes course’, which takes visitors into the trees for an adventure that covers two climbing levels.

Dutch Village

The Dutch Village promises the chance to experience Holland without ever leaving the United States. The theme park offers traditional folk dancing and a Klompen factory, Klompen are the wooden shoes or “Clogs” which the Dutch are known for. There are a range of other activities and things to enjoy at the park.

Echo Valley

Echo Valley is a winter sports park. There is an all-season sledding surface to enjoy; the runs go for a quarter of a mile with speeds reaching up to 60mph. Tubing is another fun activity, riding down show covered slopes on inflatable tubes. No winter sports park would be complete without an ice skating rink and Echo Valley is no exception, the rink covers 43,000 square feet and is resurfaced regularly to offer the best skating experience possible.

Abrams Planetarium

The Abrams Planetarium is located on the Michigan State University Campus and offers astronomy teaching as well as various shows to the public. One such show, the Sky Tellers show, explores the stories born from early star gazers and the constellations and explains why the North Star remains still and what causes shooting stars.
