Great Lakes Bay

Rise above it all on America's longest canopy walk or sail off into the sunset aboard a tall ship. Spend a day unearthing unique antiques and artisan-crafted finds, or bask in the warm European charm of Michigan's Little Bavaria.

 

Whether you're exploring one of six inviting cities or washing away your cares in the calm waters of Lake Huron, find what's pure to you in the Great Lakes Bay Region.

Discover the Great Lakes Bay Region

Find what's pure to you in a place where six inviting cities Bay City, Birch Run, Chesaning, Frankenmuth, Midland and Saginaw  come together in one unforgettable escape. Go sailing on a tall ship schooner, wine tasting on a river cruise, or boating through the "Everglades of Michigan". Pedal a pub trolley through city streets, or pop by boutiques & antique shops, sprinkled in with an eclectic mix of eateries. After a day on the water, you can unwind on a sun-soaked patio or toast beneath the stars at an outdoor beer garden
