Furniture City

The second largest city in Michigan and a hub of furniture manufacturing, Grand Rapids bears the nickname "Furniture City." However, the destination's original name came from the rapids of the Grand River that once ran through the downtown area.
Change things up with these side-trips from Grand Rapids: Holland (Holland State Park Beach & Windmill Island Gardens), Gilmore Car Museum (in Hickory Corners) and Oval Beach (in Saugatuck). And it doesn't end there: test your team's savvy at popular escape rooms, walk around Grand Ravines Dog Park, learn about wildlife with up-close encounters at John Ball Zoo, and admire the natural beauty at Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park.

In October, daily temperatures in Grand Rapids can reach 63°F, while at night they dip to 44°F. Finish your sightseeing early on the 20th (Sun) so you can travel back home.
