At first glance, a town in rural Michigan mid-winter might not seem like the ideal location for young couples to pursue adventurous dates. But fear not, Hillsdaters: this assumption could not be more wrong.
No, the problem has not been location, it’s that you have not been looking hard enough. Well look no further, because these dates are sure to rekindle your love for these cold winter months.

Reserve a Study Room Together
Want an easy way to spend the whole day together? Wake up early and reserve a purgatory study room with each other.

If the spirit moves you, and you want to be alone with your sweetheart without uprooting your roommate, head back to the study room. Afterall, it’s basically a private setting and definitely completely soundproof.
