There's so much to do in and around Grand Rapids - for singles and families, sports fans and history buffs, art lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Within steps of DeVos Place convention center, you can cast a line in a salmon-rich river, explore presidential history, peruse a vast art collection, and even travel back in time by strolling a century-old street scene.

Cast your net a little wider in Michigan's West Coast and you can visit a world-renowned botanical garden and sculpture park, watch the sunset from one of the world's best beaches, golf any number of championship courses, and so much more!

Come see why our meeting planners are saying, "Wow! I didn't know Grand Rapids had so much to offer!" You are invited to see for yourself! Call for available group site dates or to arrange an individual site for your organization at (800) 678-9859.
