Ottawa County, Michigan
If you’re looking for a piece of pure Michigan, head to the state’s western shore and you’ll find Ottawa County. It’s where the Grand River meets Lake Michigan, creating some seriously stunning scenery.
Grand Haven is the county seat and boasts a lighthouse that’s straight out of a postcard. Summers here are all about beach days, ice cream cones, and watching the Musical Fountain light up the night.
Holland, another major town, leans hard into its Dutch roots. Just check out the tulip fields and windmills. Ottawa County has a lot of lakeside views and communities, making it an easy place to enjoy life.
