Visiting Lake Michigan is an experience every tourist and local should try in the United States. It is one of the largest freshwater lakes in the whole world, and it’s always a beautiful sight to see. It also has around 275,000 acres (111,000 ha) of sand dunes, and it has a lot of clean beaches people go to. An interesting thing about Lake Michigan is that it’s the only lake solely owned by the United States. Swimming, surfing, canoeing, and sunbathing are a few of the many activities you can do here. Warren Dunes State Park and Lemon Creek Winery and Fruit Farm are some places you should visit along the lakeshore.
