| Attractions |
| Shivering Timbers is a forceful wooden coaster that has stood the test of time; it's the park's signature attraction and remains one of the best wooden coasters in the world. Unfortunately, the park doesn't have a complementary coaster to play second fiddle. The remaining coasters just aren't that exciting. The second-best attraction is an underrated water park. While the park has many traditional flat rides, it lacks any modern, high-intensity models. |
| Food |
| Another area where Michigan's Adventure could use some improvement is food. Your main options are hot dogs, burgers, subs, and pizza. Your best option for a sit-down meal is Coasters (burgers, grilled chicken, corn dogs, chicken nuggets, salads, fruit mix, and onion rings). |
| Operating Season |
| The park has daily operations from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The park may be open on weekends leading to Memorial Day and after Labor Day, so please consult the park's website. |
| Access & Location |
The park is located just north of Muskegon, Michigan close to the eastern shore of Lake Michigan. The park's website shows driving directions from all the major cities in the area:

| Nearby Lodging |
There are no major hotels in the area directly around the park. Most of the options for lodging are in nearby Muskegon. Options can be found here:

| Virtual Queue Options |
| Michigan's Adventure offers "Fast Lane" (skip the line) service. |

| TPR Notes |
|
Michigan's Adventure is anchored by a well-respected wooden roller coaster but doesn't offer solid-enough support on the ride end to keep patrons at the parks for a full day.
Most flats are typical and average (nothing wild or unique), but can generally be a shared family experience. The waterpark is an underrated feature. However, this park is one of the few in the US with no shows or entertainment. | |
