Let's Get Cozy

Winter in Marshall is serene and cozy, perfect for those who enjoy a slower pace while embracing the season's activities. Whether you're outdoors in the snow or indoors exploring, there’s plenty to keep you entertained!

Here are some ideas for things to do:

Winter Walks or Snowshoeing
Take a peaceful walk through snow-covered streets, local parks, or nearby nature trails. The winter landscape has a unique beauty, and quiet, snowy paths are perfect for reflection or appreciating nature. Consider visiting a local park and snowshoeing or cross-country skiing trails where you can enjoy winter scenes, such as frozen lakes, snowy trees, or icy streams.

Winter Photography
Winter offers stunning photo opportunities. The snow, frosty trees, and early sunsets create a magical atmosphere. Take your camera (or phone) and explore Marshall, capturing the beauty of the season.

Cozy Up at a Local Café
Find a warm, local café or coffee shop to settle into with a hot drink and a good book or journal. Many small towns have charming cafes with a cozy ambiance, perfect for watching the snow fall while enjoying a warm beverage.

Visit Local Museums or Historic Sites
Marshall is home to several museums that are open by appointment during winter months. Contact the Marshall Welcome Center at 269-781-5163 to schedule your tour today!

Attend a Local Event or Festival
Even in winter, many small towns host seasonal events like Sip 'N Shops and winter festivals. These events may feature themed shopping nights, hot cocoa stands, ice sculptures, or adult tastings. Check the community calendar for all of the upcoming events.

Indoor Classes
Stay warm and creative by taking up an indoor project. Marshall offers several opportunities to try your hand at baking, pottery, or crafting. You could also get involved in a community art project or with a local organization.

Visit a Local Brewery, Distillery, or Winery
Marshall boasts several local breweries, distilleries, and wineries open for a tour or tasting. Winter is a great time to try seasonal brews or craft cocktails, and it’s often less crowded than in the warmer months.

Volunteer or Help Out Locally
Many towns, including Marshall, have local organizations or community centers that could use help, especially during the winter months. Volunteering is a great way to connect with others and give back to your community.

In small towns, winter is an opportunity to embrace simpler pleasures: cozy atmospheres, quiet walks in nature, and community events that make the colder months warm and inviting. As always, thanks for Choosing Marshall.
