Just on the eastern outskirts of the state capital of Lansing, the town of Williamston, Michigan, perfectly encapsulates the Great Lakes and Midwest charm. With its classic Main Street USA vibe and easy access to cities and natural wonders alike, Williamston is a truly romantic destination. The area of present-day Williamston began as an agricultural center for central Michigan. As the cities in Michigan developed, so did the region. Before the advent of cars, Williamston became a stopping point for the journey between Lansing and Detroit. By the time the car was invented, Williamston had already become a prominent spot on the map and continues to be so today. And now, Williamston is a wonderful middle ground destination to rent an RV and explore all of what central Michigan has to offer.
