10 Michigan Towns with the Most Charm

There's something inherently charming about Michigan. I've lived in this state for almost my whole life, and I personally think it's a great place to live, whether you're raising a family or living the single life. The only thing I don't love about Michigan is the kind of winter we get, with lots of snow and ice, but many people find the winter months the most refreshing time to be in the Mitten.

If you've never ventured around Michigan, the road-tripping season is coming up, so now is a perfect time to plan where you're going to visit. Now, we have a list of the 10 most charming towns in Michigan, thanks to WorldAtlas.com.

The crew at WorldAtlas.com has put out a new list of the most charming spots in the Mitten, and they note that we're known for our Great Lakes. "The U.S. State of Michigan is known for its demanded location on the Great Lakes, with many charming towns sitting right on the banks," they state. "Visiting one of these towns will comprise the coziest experience in town and great outdoor adventures for a getaway to remember forever after. With rich forests for hiking and ample water for wet pursuits, these charming towns call out as a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city into the quaint natural setting with all the comforts. There, one will find endless exploration to the pursuit while recharging with nature’s powers for a strong comeback into the everyday being."

So, what are the most charming towns in Michigan- ones that you should get on your list of spots to visit this summer? Read on for the full list, and find more information at WorldAtlas.com. I've been to most of the towns on this list, except for the ones in the U.P. I can't wait to venture up there to visit these place hopefully sometime soon.
