After visiting Orchard Lake and Cass Lake in Michigan we wanted to check out the town of Lake Orion. This review is based on the downtown and the lake(which branches a block off the downtown) I was not surprised to find Lake Orion used to be more of a tourist town, and now is more of a residential town(I am guessing because it is so close to Metro Detroit) The downtown is nice and bustling with Cobblestone street and the Lake veers, twists, and turns around the whole community offering great views and lakefront property. The boats were out and about and I would suggest this area as a place to visit even if just for a day trip.
