Lake Michigan, Heaven For Beach Lodgings

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

Lake Michigan is the second largest of the Great Lakes of the United States. In fact, it borders four separate states: Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin. Lake Michigan is also the only one of the Great Lakes that is contained entirely within the US. Its large size makes for a long coastline, with plenty of beaches for you to enjoy.

The beaches of Michigan are a great place to take a vacation because of the many activities available to tourists in the area. Harbor Country is one of the more popular areas to find a place to stay. It is located at the southern point of Lake Michigan, in the state of Michigan. Within Harbor Country there are eight separate townships, which house many different resorts, spas, bed and breakfasts and hotels.

One popular lodging destination in this area is the New Buffalo Inn and Spa located in New Buffalo, Michigan. This spa and retreat has both cottages and inn accommodations available for rent, as well as a women’s wellness spa with pampering treatments such as facials and massages. It is an ideal place to get some well deserved pampering.

Another great place to stay on your vacation in the Harbor Country area is the Gintaras. It is located in Union Pier, Michigan. The Gintaras offers beach and waterfront activities as well as a children’s playground, bike riding, horseback riding and much more! As you can tell from the description, these lodgings are tailored to the entire family.

Michigan beaches are a great spot to take a family vacation and be able to relax with your loved ones. While at these locations, be sure to attend some of the festivals and other entertainment that is available in the region. Aside from lounging on the beach, you can attend plays and other shows at the Acorn Theater in Three Oaks, Michigan, or go on a Wine Tasting Tour starting at the Round Barn Winery in Baroda, Michigan. There are so many activities to choose from that you’ll be sure to find something to do that everyone in the family will enjoy.
