So… Who Started Inside Michigan?

Most know him as some guy named Bryan. No really, that’s his name on Instagram!
Well, who is he?
Legends have been told over the years. Some say he’s part of the Illuminati. Others whisper that he’s a retired lighthouse keeper in disguise. And some claim he’s just an average guy who wanted to share Michigan’s beauty with others.
What we do know is that he’s a lifelong Metro Detroiter. He started Inside Michigan in 2021 as a passion project, simply to catalog the favorite places he and his kids discovered together. Always searching for new places to visit with his family, and finding few online resources that showcased the best of what Michigan has to offer, Bryan decided to build one himself. This site is the result.
We may never know the real truth about his deep roots. But we do know this site is dedicated to giving you insider knowledge of the state’s attractions, historical landmarks, and top-notch destinations.
How We Do It
Every guide is researched with the details that matter in mind: where to go, what to expect, when to visit, and what’s worth your time. We check the businesses and attractions we feature to confirm they exist and are operating, but hours, prices, and seasonal schedules change, so it’s always smart to confirm with the venue before you go.
