Although many in the Upper Midwest have extensive experience embracing winter, by March, there’s usually a shared eagerness for longer days and sunshine. So, now that the homestretch to spring is here, most people are thinking about blossoming flowers, t-shirt weather, and outdoor activities. To get you as excited for the changing season as we are at Bluefish Vacation Rentals, we put together ten ways to shake off winter while visiting Lake Michigan this spring.
