Windmill Island Garden, Holland Michigan

The gardens seem fairly authentic. The real 251 year old De Zwaan windmill was purchased in 1964 and it's run by a female miller. Other attractions include a flower garden, an Amsterdam street organ and a carousel. In May, the gadens exhibit 115,000 blooming tulips.

Looking up! The miller can position the sails to create messages to nearby residents, such as the mill is running or not, birth, marriage or mourning.
