I've been watching and recording episodes since the beginning....on VHS tape and now a DVR. I know you can't do this forever but I will enjoy it and treasure each episode until it ends. Thank you and keep up the great work!

Love Crossroads village. The train rides are the best but walking around the 'downtown' area is fun too. Looks like one of those towns you see in a 'shoot em up western' movie except there's no hitching posts.

It was very interesting and hope to visit the sites next winter. I have been to the areas at other times but not during the holidays and would like to do that. Episode 1116, celebrating the Christmas festivals.

I love Great Getaways! I appreciate getting to know more and more about our diverse and incredible state and the priceless people that have the fortune of calling all of Michigan home! My husband and I kayak the rivers and lakes as often as possible (yes, year around) as well as enjoying all of the rock hunting excursions we can find! Thank you!

We love Negwegon! Great place and a stop on our honeymoon over ten years ago. We spent a night in one of the campsites there. The main beach is absolutely gorgeous.
