We Enjoy Hitting the DUNES! Glad that You Had FUN!

Michigan has a very diversified agriculture production. We lead the nation in several categories of fruit & berry growing. The west side of the state( lake Michigan) is known as the " fruit belt". I am not surprised you found the Muskegon farmers market big, as Muskegon is right in the middle of the " fruit belt". Your views of our state so positive. Your photography is outstanding.Thank you for enjoying our beautiful state, Big, wild & free, every income, every age, every camping style..we have it all. The nation's best kept secret..Michigan!!

Welcome to Michigan! We love our state and so glad you had a chance to visit!

Muskegon native here. I'm glad you enjoyed our city. It's far from what it used to be, but, we like it. Thank you for showing us in a beautiful light! Come back to West Michigan in the fall. Gorgeous!

“I’m going to keep my expectations low just so I don’t get disappointed” What!?! It’s Michigan man! It’s awesome, beautiful and beyond amazing! The North is one of the most beautiful and scenic parts of the Country. Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan- I’d put those three states up against any other group in the Union! Hands down the best! Glad to see you guys out enjoying it!

Aw you guys ❤️ Thanks so much for the shout out - you smashed the cold water swimming! (Be careful though - it does get addictive 😆)

Yes we are too! It's. A great state.

We did Silver Lake sand dunes for a weekend before my son deployed to Afghanistan--- 2019. It made for a good weekend for him, and us as a family. ------- But, in 2021, a friend was there with his son, --- they went to top a dune- the area was well known to them, but still, the dune had shifted. They went over the hill and into oblivion. The jeep they were in landed on its roof, and he ended up breaking his neck and messing up his elbow. After many surgeries and TLC, he made a full recovery.

Oh I have to start at the end- during the drone shots all I could think of was the sand pit and dinky toys my sons had when they were small. That footage was AWESOME! As was the whole sand dunes experience. I loved the salad too by the way Liz..... yum! My kind of food. Michigan has a lot to offer. I look forward to the rest of your adventures there. 🙏 🇳🇿 🙋‍♀️ 🇳🇱

My favorite State Park! We used to go there yearly. Love the steps/deck area that leads down to the beach, a beautiful spot to stop and watch the sunset. Use to have an ice cream shop at the other end of the area we camped at. It’s been years since I’ve been there now that the kids are grown. People are always surprised at how ocean-like the Great Lakes are.

It was interesting nostalgia for me to watch this. When I was a kid (60+ years ago) our family was on summer vacation north of Muskegon and we went on a "dune-buggy" ride (before the days of ATVs) up and down these huge sand dunes. It was lots of fun, but I never figured out exactly where that was. Now I know!

Silver lake is one of my favorite vacation spots. Awesome sand dunes (both ORV and walking) plus awesome beaches. Glad you enjoyed it. The largest dune is called test hill, because if you can make it up it then you can make it up all of the rest. Also, during busier times the flat area just past the large dunes is lined with vehicles on two sides leaving drag strip racing which goes on all day.
