Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum

Writer: Fire BaneFire Bane

Coming from the upper Midwest, we often experience intense winters with numerous snow storms. Therefore, where else could be more fitting to visit during a snow storm than Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum!


This roadside stop stands out for being a blend of a retro arcade, filled with various peculiarities and homemade arcade machines reminiscent of old carnival days. Additionally, they showcase unique machines that offer mini shows. Some of the Diorama machines on display there trace back to the early 1900s. Moreover, you can enjoy many of the activities available there without exceeding a budget of 50 cents!


I highly suggest visiting this charming roadside attraction if you are in the vicinity or traveling through Michigan. You won't be let down. Where else can you engage in a game of Tic-Tac-Toe with a robotic chicken!
