Nestled in the heart of the Great Lakes region, the Midwest state of Michigan lies on the border with Canada.
Home to more than 12,000 lakes and more beaches than the country’s entire Atlantic coastline, it’s made up of two large peninsulas and several scenic and secluded islands.

As such, there are loads of great outdoor activities to be enjoyed, with hiking, camping and sailing all popular.
