Hidden Gems Places To Visit in Howell, Michigan, United States
- 5.0 Howell Carnegie Library (30 reviews)
-Wonderful place to browse, read, and relax.
Spent < 1 hour Libraries
My wife and I visited the Howell Carnegie Library several weeks ago. This is a wonderful facility that offers periodicals, historic pictures of Howell, books on CD, and a book sale every month ($1.00 for hardbacks and $.50 for paperbacks). The employees were helpful, and my wife and I both obtained library cards. This facility is nicer than 90% of the libraries that I have been too. See more..
- 4.5 Howell's MainStreet Winery (74 reviews)
-Amazing wines, great cost
Tuesday: 12:00 PM - 6:00 PM Wineries & Vineyards
I only bought 1 bottle of wine because I was new to the store - and I wish I had bought more. I'm usually a red wine person, but my husband is new to wine drinking so I bought a Moscato. The wine was deliciously light and fruity, and the associate who helped me was amazing. See more..
- 4.5 Livingston Antique Outlet (39 reviews)
-Parlor Shopping
Spent More than 3 hours Speciality & Gift Shops
My wife and I stopped I. To look for k knickknacks and furniture items for our new parlor. The place is much larger than perceived from the street. You go in and the aisles never end. I believe there are 4-5 separate areas. We walked around for a couple of hours (got lost once) and checked out many of the stalls. The selection of items that appealed to us was limited, but you need to check out every book and cranny to ensure you don't miss the one thing you are looking for. As a matter of fact, the items that appealed to us most were found on our second time through. We ended up purchasing an old travel trunk and a small table (cigarette table). I recommend haggling as the employees had no problem knocking off 5-10%. We found other items that we plan to go back and pick up as well. See photos. I was pleasantly surprised by the selection and quality of the products. I recommend stopping in and looking around. You will surely find something you didn't know you wanted. See more..
- 4.5 Brighton Recreation Area (38 reviews)
-Nature Hikes
Nature & Wildlife Areas
Over the past couple months I made several hikes oh the trails available in the park. During the summer, the dense trees, well maintained trails and beautiful scenery mad for a peaceful, meditative walk. In the last couple weeks I was able to return for an Autumn Colors hike with the Sierra Club. The changes were incredible and breathtaking. The bright reds, deep oranges and mellow browns truly make you believe in the existence of a greater power. Come for a visit and appreciate the beauty of Livingston County. See more..
- 4.5 Howell Nature Center (26 reviews)
-Great Experience!!
Nature & Wildlife Areas
My husband and I were introduced to the Howell Nature Center when Fox 2 News aired two segments featuring two Howell Nature Center residents--a snow owl and an eagle. The Howell Nature Center has an animal clinic that provides treatment to animals injured in the wild. If the animals cannot be reintroduced to the wild, they will provide a permanent home for them. The animals have large habitats where they can roam and enjoy life. The Howell Nature Center gives visitors the opportunity to see animals they would not normally see. They also offer educational programs and overnight stays for groups of children. We definitely recommend the Howell Nature Center. They do good work!! See more..
