Two Michigan Towns Named Among Coziest to Visit This Winter

Lots of states make the list, a few of them multiple times, like New York and Colorado. And that's great and all, but let's take a look at Michigan.

There are two Michigan towns that were cozy enough to make the list of 50 for the whole United States. And they did so because of their Midwestern charm, local boutiques, and winter activities.

The two towns are...

Ann Arbor, Michigan

Occupying the unique space between Midwestern charm and cosmopolitan urban energy, Detroit offers world-class theater, performing arts, and museum experiences. Don't miss Midnight Madness on Dec. 2, the town's annual one-night event, where local boutiques along Main Street stay open late for holiday shopping.

And...

Traverse City, Michigan

Traverse City offers visitors one of the most beautiful wintry landscapes around. And while it may not have the idyllic downhill ski runs of Utah or Colorado, this northern Michigan town still has its share of winter attractions. For a new twist on the slopes, try night skiing at Timber Ridge Recreation Resort, or take a fat bike for a spin on Traverse City's Winter Sports Singletrack Trail.
