Undoubtedly you've heard of the Great Lakes, including the recreation mecca of Lake Michigan. There's no shortage of ways to enjoy this massive body of water. For example, you can explore Lake Michigan from the shores of Chicago at the city-connected Oak Street Beach or head to one of the more underrated state parks for the best views in the region.
