Grand Haven is situated in western Michigan, and sits along the coast of Lake Michigan, one of America’s Great Lakes. The city got its start in the fur trade back in the mid-1800s, and soon became a logging town. Today, the city has around 10,000 residents, and is an excellent place to visit if you like the outdoors. There’s a boardwalk and sandy beaches, so in the warmer months you can take advantage of Lake Michigan. At Rosy Mound Natural Area, you’ll find trails which you can walk or run on, and they’ve got views of the lake, so you can get some exercise and enjoy your surroundings at the same time. If you’re more of a history person, you can explore the area’s past at the Tri-Cities Historical Museum. We’ve created a list of some of our favourite places to stay in Grand Haven, so keep on reading and check out the options.
