Things to Do

West Michigan and the outlying area offer the option of many things to do; from visiting nearby downtown Rockford or many of our area museums, shops and restaurant options…to enjoying the relaxing beaches, excitement of a nearby theme-park or the downtown nightlife of our metropolitan Grand Rapids.

All this and so much more is conveniently located to both the Meijer Sports Complex or the many hotel options where you may be staying.
