Think you need an ocean for a beach? Think again. There are miles and miles of sandy lakefront beaches in Michigan (thanks to the four Great Lakes that border it). The west coast of Michigan has especially nice beaches—try a rental in Muskegon, Grand Haven or Saugatuck. You won’t need a car when visiting Mackinac Island. In fact, they’re not allowed—this lovely Victorian resort town is pedestrian-only.

This Municipal Cemetery contains the remains of many pioneers and leaders of the city of Lansing. It's rolling hills and valleys are remnants of a glacial moraine. There are several microenvironments within the cemetery and there is a plethora of flora and fauna; wildlife includes foxes and eagles. Opened in 1874, this cemetery also includes remains moved over from the city's first cemetery, Oak Park. Monuments and markers range from the very simple to the mausoleum of the R. E. Olds auto pioneer family. There is a Civil War veterans section, which also contains remains from the Spanish-American War, and a Firefighters Memorial section. The new Fratcher Memorial Garden encompasses a columbarium wall, a cremation tower section, a fountain, a gazebo, benches, wandering pathways, and several flower beds. Monuments and markers are made from a variety of materials, including sandstone, limestone, marble, granite, and zinc. Styles range from extremely ornate to very basic. Much of the history of the city of Lansing can be found in the names of those at perpetual rest in this peaceful place.

This is a beautiful memorial and park honoring Michigan war dogs, service dogs, and other beloved pets. It is small so it doesn't take much time for a short visit, but it is beautifully cared for and a very touching experience. If you are a dog lover and in the area, I definitely recommend stopping by for a visit and leaving a donation if you are able.

Over 40 Magicians are buried here and many living ones already have a plot. The headstones are very interesting. Many non-magician graves also have interesting headstones. Free! Store in town at Abbott's Magic shop, they know the tons of facts about the graves.

Historic cemetery filled with notable Detroiters bearing such names as Ford, Dodge, Hudson, Sanders, Aretha, and Rosa Parks as well as numerous Motown stars, sports celebrities, politicians, automotive executives, businessmen, and more. A beautiful park setting with rolling hills and a pond, this cemetery features beautiful mausoleums replete with stunning stained glass and architecture by some well-known names. On a beautiful day, you can walk and walk and walk, and never tire of the beautiful monuments.
