There’s plenty to love about February in Michigan!
Bundle up and explore scenic destinations to the north or enjoy warmer temperatures at your local indoor waterpark. It’s also time to celebrate Black History Month, focus on your heart health and plan an adventurous date with your Valentine.
Yes, it’s the shortest month of the year, but there’s plenty of time to check a few of our February bucket list items off.
- Give winter hiking a go at the Eben Ice Caves in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
