This Michigan Getaway is So Romantic It’s Like a Fairy-Tale
The travel experts at TimeOut.com have put together a study on the most romantic spots in America. What makes this tally extra special is that all of these spots are outdoors, because, really, there’s nothing more romantic than being outside in the sunshine with your sweetheart. I love being outdoors, so I’m definitely looking to travel to a few of the places mentioned. “Love may have no bounds, but there sure are many romantic places to remind us how much we adore our special someone,” TimeOut.com mentions in the story. “Indulge your love language of quality time by taking a trip to the most romantic places in the U.S.”
Before we get to Michigan, I have to say that I was surprised by the No. 1 most romantic location in the U.S., as determined by these travel experts. It’s Antelope Canyon, Arizona. This place, which is 4,000 feet above sea level, looks super cool, but I wouldn’t really call it romantic. They promise that it “offers picture-perfect panoramas for lovestruck outdoorsy folks,” which does sound cool. “Formed by the erosion of Navajo Sandstone due to wind, water and time, the photogenic slot canyon is the perfect backdrop for sweet snaps thanks to its deep corridors, smooth edges, and ‘flowing’ sandstone,” they note. But, access is by permit only, so plan ahead and get legit.
As for the Michigan getaway crowned one of the most romantic in the U.S., it’s Mackinac Island. You can’t have cars on the island, so that makes this a very nostalgic romantic getaway. Also, much of Mackinac Island consists of state park land with nature and historic spots. “Located on Lake Huron in northern Michigan, Mackinac Island has charming hotels and inns, horse-drawn carriages, and mesmerizing sunrises and sunsets—all contributors to setting the mood for romance,” TimeOut.com states. “Don’t forget to indulge in Mackinac Island fudge—the perfect sweet for your sweetheart.” They’re right on that last one. I absolutely love Mackinac Island fudge. It’s possibly the best-tasting treat in the world. Add some fresh flowers, and this is a perfect, fairy-tale getaway. I think river walks are romantic, too.
