Roadside America: St. Joseph, Michigan

A writer for AOL's Roadside America says, "Each year that I've visited St. Joseph, the town has evolved and improved into a destination worth visiting beyond a quick side trip from Chicago. The waterfront parks have been revitalized in recent years, and the beaches are so wide and sandy, you could forget you aren't on an ocean."

Excerpt: St. Joe and its sister city Benton Harbor are under two hours from Chicago, as well as an easy drive from other Midwestern cities such as Milwaukee and Detroit, in what has been called the "Riviera of the Midwest."
