Y’all do a lot of steps!!!! The windmill is awesome!!!! Th gardens are beautiful!! Y’all went to a really big walk thru garden ( y’all were on your bikes, I think) in Kodak area a few years ago. This reminds of that garden!! I’ll have to look back and find that video!!

[@timlittle841]

My father in law collected shot glasses from everywhere,he passed away a couple of years ago,I ended up with all his shot glasses,really don’t have any meaning to me,hard to pass that stuff down,just stuff

[@angelaambrose2326]

Thanks for showing us Holland!! This has been on our bucket list especially when tulips are in bloom. They are my favorite flowers!!

[@Nate-Dogggg]

Nothing makes me happier and feel a bit better about my countries current housing crisis than sitting down and just trying to absorb these videos. Every awesome video I watch just really resets my mind in a good way. It's like all my problems get erased as soon as I see this power couple living the dream! Trying to get through a 12 pack in 28 min. Love you guys! Stay safe 🇨🇦🇮🇳 👳

[@karenk2831]

The windmill made me remember playing miniature golf and having to hit the ball into the windmill while the blades were turning! Windmill cookies are my absolute favorite!!! Nice gift shop! What a neat place to visit! Is it open all year? Maybe Santa is there around Christmas time! I love that I can bring my dog! Thank you for that information! I'm enjoying the Michigan trip very much!

[@susanrivera7065]

Thank you thank you for showing the inside of the windmill. I went for tulip festival a few years ago and never went inside because I was discouraged by people telling me it would be too hard for me. Now I see that maybe I could go at a time when crowds down.

[@dianapearson1771]

My husband went to Holland years ago! He brought me a tiny pair of wooden shoes! I still have them!!!He also took pictures of the acres and acres of tulips in bloom! So beautiful!!

[@geomadcat]

Fist time in holland ? And why not play the music from the organ, no risk of copyrighted!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

It's kind of funny that I did get hit with a copyright and had to cover it up

[@geomadcat]

That’s insane, it’s none recorded, but mechanically made, I got hit on the dukes of hazard general Lee horn noise!😂

[@norabradley9108]

There's still a record of it though.

[@lynnharmon3370]

What a neat roadside attraction to explore.

[@timhagens340]

We have a town in Iowa,Pella,Iowa, that is very similar to Holland! They also have a huge tulip festival in the spring. They have a Dutch windmill, bakery, and cheese and sausage shop.

[@peggyely4356]

The flowers and the water lilies were just beautiful.

[@mariebruzdowski6466]

Awesome video, beautiful scenery. Thanks so much for sharing ❤

[@jessicacoley8745]

omg this brings back memories of when we went there. i remember going to the windmill and the oregon. we watched some of them dance they were several layers of socks to keep the shoes on.

[@CaitlinMcCulllick-mk8bq]

I love windmill island .

[@delanomiller]

My dads family had a cottage on Silver Lake. They lived in Chicago and would drive up to the cottage and when I was 4 back in the 60s I got to go to the cottage and we stopped in Holland. There is a picture of my sister and I standing in some big wooden shoes beside a windmill. Ty for sharing this video 😊

[@tommyromans7893]

Hey guys, my wife and I were there labor day weekend in September last year and the flowers were outstanding beautiful. It was unseasonably warm at that time. We went to a park in town and it was absolutely gorgeous in full bloom too with a big water fountain. GREAT JOB AGAIN!!

[@roymaria6042]

So many neat things to see. Bet its pretty for the tulip festival.

[@Lyndaragirl78]

My cousin and her husband just moved to Holland, MI. She said it was really neat and we need to go see it one day. Thanks for giving me the preview!!! 💕💕💕

[@cathyratliff398]

A very pretty place, looks like fun 💕

[@kimberlyschleicher5292]

Will I like the hat on you,I'm born and raised in Michigan,'I love it. Great videos once again. Love you guys ❤

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@angieperry37]

My family drove up from Indiana Last spring during the tulip festival...beautiful 🌷. We visited Windmill Island...bought some tulips. They were beautiful this spring at our house. Must see during the festival Will and Dawn. Hope you make it back

[@cjennings2876]

Been to Holland MI many times. Never been to windmill Island because it can be very busy when we go. We have been to Dutch village on the other side of town and it's a fun place to visit.

[@gracebarnes9785]

I didn't realize that there were so many interesting places to see in Michigan. The city of Holland is amazing. I love the wind mill, and the flowers are beautiful. The lighthouse was very unique. I'm sure the weather would be totally different if you were visiting during the colder months.

[@laurarose8140]

That was a beautiful video. That windmill was so pretty and huge. Love the wooden shoe. Thanks so much for a wonderful video and I can't wait until the next one. Have fine and be safe in your travels. God be with you

[@user-wg2zw4vd8n]

Have always wanted to go to Holland, MI! Thanks for the tour of the windmill! Looking forward to what you will share next! Becki from KY

[@cynthia6055]

[@claudiekyger6806]

Hey Will and Dawn. I was at Holland Michigan some years ago during tulip time. It was beautiful so many different tulips. I even bought a pair of wooden shoes there very comfortable. Glad you enjoyed it there. Be safe

[@pameladulany1457]

[@cherieoerting1926]

My husband, Dan, and I truly enjoy watching your adventures! This looks like a fun place to visit and we get to see it thanks to you guys! We found your channel a few weeks ago and you gave such a great review it convinced us to take an Alaskan cruise for our 30th wedding anniversary next June! Thank you guys for all you do☺️ Cherie Oerting

[@yankeeinthesouth]

[@janerockstar]

My husband and I thought this was so much fun 2 watch! Who knew windmills were so much Fun! Dawn you did a great job recording and narrating. Looks like you guys were at the windmill late in the day, little after 4pm, just saying. You guys are cool.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks so much!

[@loriannkruithof2043]

I've Been To Holland Several Times And It Really Is Beautiful Like This...

[@thomascockhill8357]

Awesome little place! I love seeing all the cute spots and neat little gift shops you two visit! I really need to visit my neighbors to the south! 🇨🇦🇺🇲

[@kimpeters9983]

Beautiful flowers. Great hearing Dawn do the commentary and man the camera. Great job, Dawn! Thanks for bearing the heat to show us the inside of the windmill. That was cool. The local ABC news in Harrisburg, PA this evening, 6-24-2024, showed the video of the black bear in the Anakeesta concession stand. When it left a female worker startled it. She was holding a big pot of hot water. The bear smacked the pot and she suffered some minor burns. Safe travels.

[@cheryldavis2893]

Hello guys you are very close to having 100,000 subscribers I love your haircut Dawn safe travels!!!
