Michigan Attractions: Michigan's Adventure Amusement Park

Michigan's Adventures is one of only a few amusement parks in the state of Michigan. This premiere park located in Muskegon Michigan, offers two types of amusement parks all in one. You get the ride portion of the park that offers everything from roller coasters, bumper cars, log flumes, kid rides, go karts, games and more. On the other end of the park you get the super popular water park, which includes three separate wave pools, a lazy river, log rides, a wild rapids ride and all sorts of kid pools and water slides. This is why Michigan's Adventure has the always known phrase "two parks for the price of one" since you get entry into both parks for only one price.

Michigan's Adventure's top attraction is the ever-frightening "Shivering Timbers". This massive wooden coaster takes you up 122 feet in the air on the hill climb and sends you back down at 57 mph. While many would find this just to be an average coaster, it's the creaking and crackling sounds that will make you panic. No fear though as obviously you will get this with every wooden coaster but it will definitely adds some intensity to your ride. Amongst other coasters include a dual racer coaster, a corkscrew, and even a kid wooden coaster to help prep the young ones for some bigger screams later on.

You can also find all the classic rides such as the scrambler, bumper cars, go-karts, and more. You will also find great food stands and always-popular 50's style diner. Don't forget to stop by Snoopy's souvenir shop that offers t-shirts and other cool souvenirs. The Snoopy thing is kind of the theme at Michigan's Adventure.

Inside the Michigan's Adventure water park, you will find a variety of rides as well. The more popular ride inside the water park would be the white water rapids ride. This exciting rapid adventure sends you through waterfalls, geysers, and more. This ride is guaranteed to get you wet just to give you a heads up. Amongst other attractions at the Michigan's Adventure water park include Commotion Ocean and Tidal Wave. These are just two of the three wave pools featured at Michigan's Adventure.
