Nestled in a small-town yard, a whimsical gnome village invites passersby to experience its colorful charm without the crowds or fees.

It's no secret that Michigan is one of the best road trip states in the United States.  Michigan has giant dunes, beautiful lakes, massive National Forests, and a gnome village.  Yep, you read that right, gnome village.  This unexpected find is near the Northern tip of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan in a small village called Wolverine.

I recently found a video while scrolling TikTok from @mckormickradio where she stumbled upon this incredible gnome village.  The detailed design work is absolutely incredible.  This isn't a big tourist trap where you get a tour and have to pay an entrance fee.  This can be found in someone's front yard near Old Sturgeon Rd in Wolverine, Michigan.  It reminds me of the mini-mac bridge in St. Louis, Michigan.  The gnome church below is pretty amazing.

How do they get angles like that?  Amazing.

Aside from all of the unusual angles, curves, and odd shingles, the colors are so cool.
