    I love walking at Millennium Park. I have been exercising here for many years. There are miles and…read moremiles of paths to explore. I enjoy mixing up my different routes to go different distances. There are several small lakes, one of which has a beach and other activities such as paddle boats. There are two different entrances to the park, which helps spread visitors out on really busy days like weekends. On the Secchia Meadows side, there is a nice pavillon where my friends had their wedding. I highly recommend Millennium Park for anyone who enjoys spending time outdoors, spotting creatures such as deer, turtles, muskrats, eagles, and more.

    I've got lots of thoughts running through my head, simultaneously, all the time. So when I stepped…read moreup to the check-in counter at Millennium Park Boat Rentals, the thoughts in my head were: Wow! It only costs $8 per hour to rent a kayak? Sweet! Wow! These people checking me in and telling me safety information are incredibly young! Will they be able to save me and my family if our kayaks flip over and we fall into the lake? Wow! What a beautiful day! But I wonder how often people fall into the lake. I also wonder how deep the lake is. I also wonder if it's possible to be trapped underwater if your kayak flips over. In the end, I decided to kick it on the sandy beach and wave at my family as they happily paddled on the lake. They had a great time kayaking. I had a great time not kayaking. Like Hot Chocolate says: Everyone's a winner, baby. Kayaks are either single-person or double, and we used one of each. There are very few instructions given, which was a little alarming to me. (You mean you just assume we know what we're doing?!) But fortunately, my family knew what they were doing, so they didn't need much instruction to get themselves out on the water. As you paddle around the lake, you pass the Millennium Park beach and splash pad, plus little islands here and there. There is about four miles of shoreline to explore. I was told that the lake was nice and calm, and that it was a pleasant time on the water. We rented kayaks, but Millennium Park Boat Rentals also offers canoes, paddle boats and stand-up paddle boards to rent. Keep in mind that rentals are seasonal -- this place is only open from Memorial Day-ish to Labor Day-ish.

    Got to witness an incredible piece of Muskegon's Maritime History aboard the beautiful Aquastar…read moreCruises. We enjoyed the ride as the Aquastar escorted the USS Silversides out of the Muskegon channel, on it's way to Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin for a major renovation project. This was the first time the Silversides has left it's Muskegon home since 1987! What an amazing experience it was! I can't say enough about the Aquastar owner Patrick's hospitality, and the crew were all amazing as well! We have sailed on the Aquastar many times before and always enjoy the ship's clean and well designed accommodations. the bar is perfect for a 2+ hour cruise, great selection of drinks and snacks at affordable prices. Plenty of comfortable seating on both decks. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the generosity and support of many charities that Patrick (Owner) and the Aquastar team get behind. I did a Special Olympics fundraising cruise a while back and they gave back a portion of the ticket sales, plus provided Captain's hats and free rides for all of the Special Olympics athletes! This really says a lot about their integrity, love and commitment to the surrounding communities! Thank You Team Aquastar for another fantastic experience and for so many great memories. To anyone reading this, Aquastar has several cruises daily, including a gorgeous sunset cruise and many special events. For anyone who enjoys our great lakes, comfort, affordability, entertainment and creating lasting memories, I would most definitely recommend setting sail with Aquastar! Check them out at aquastercruises.com!

    This was a very nice cruise for the money. The crew was accommodating and very nice. We took the…read morecruise around Muskegon lake and down the channel to lake Michigan. However, The waves were a little too rough and we weren't able to go out onto lake Michigan so we circled around the mouth of the channel, that was a little disappointing, but still it was a Good Cruise. I wish they had a little bit more information about where we were cruising. It was just a boat ride. A little information about the ships we were passing and some of the landmarks would have been very nice.

    We joined the sunset sailing cruise, which starts at 7p, and comes back into dock around 9p (maybe…read morea bit later). Captain and First Mate were great - very helpful. Captain runs a tight ship - very observant of all rules, keeps boat very clean. Both were willing to answer any question about the boat (even though they've probably answered every single one a thousand times or more - you'd never know from their response). Kind of unusual - if you want to, they will let you help a little bit on the boat - letting out sails etc. My son was *thrilled* to be given the duty of hoisting the gibb sail. The cruise is accompanied by suitable and inoffensive music - the night we rode it was toward the Jimmy Buffet side of things.... like I said - inoffensive. The evening we were on, the weather was quiet - too bad! Would have been nice to have had a slightly more exciting cruise - but not the charter boat's issue. (Does anyone know how to review Mother Nature on Yelp?) Before you go: - Call for reservation - they seem to regularly fill up their cruises. - Check the weather, and dress appropriately. It's always colder and windier on the water than you think it's going to be. - Leave everything you can on on shore - limited storage and you don't want to be messing with purses, camera bags and the like. - Budget $30 to $40 per person (2009 pricing) for the tour. - Bring extra cash for the bar service, if you want a beverage. - Non-marking shoes only, barefeet are fine. - No food allowed on board. - If you are prone to sea sickness, take your dramamine/gravol before you get on board. :-) - Children under a certain age (13?) must wear a life jacket - it's the law. My daugher was unhappy about this - oh well! - Sunset cruise is a bit more expensive than daytime cruise - about $6 a person, going from memory. - Remember your (compact) camera! You'll get some beautiful shots out there. Would I recommend: Yes. Would I return: Yes. Kid's loved it.

    If there was an option for zero stars that is what I would rate this. I can't tell you how the…read morecruise was because we never went. We got to the boat and we noticed that the seats in the back were filling up. We told the guy that if we didn't have a seat than we will not pay. He said you are already checked in. Everyone under 50 was told they had to go the front of the boat. We said we did not feel safe. He said " too bad I already have your money." After we argued with he said he would give us our money back if we promise not to come back again.". Some people moved to the front so there were seats in the back. We said there are seats there now does he want us to stay or go. He said he wants us to go. He gave us our $90 ($45 each) back and we left. He was very rude and did not even try to accommodate us. I guess if we were over 50 we would have had better treatment.
