Michigan's Adventure

Steve’s take

Michigan's own theme park and waterpark combo, about an hour west of I-75 off US-31. Not as big as Cedar Point but way less crowded, and the waterpark — WildWater Adventure — is included with admission. If your family is leaving Michigan and heading south, this is the send-off day. One last Michigan hurrah before the highway takes over. The Shivering Timbers wooden coaster is genuinely great.
