I wrote in a recent column that Iâd plan on sharing some more small towns weâve visited and enjoyed as we have traveled.
I have loved taking trips where thereâs a lot to do and weâve gone from one attraction to another and packed our days. But other times, itâs nice to just spend a day in a smaller town where thereâs not so much to do. You can just take a walk and explore, spend time sipping at a coffee shop or lingering at a park without rushing from place to place.
A recent Michigan trip included a day spent mostly in Stevensville. Itâs a laid back lakeside town in Southwest Michigan that isnât loaded with tourists, but its northerly neighbor is St. Joseph, which has a big beach to spend time at, an art center and a childrenâs museum, if youâre looking for more activity.
