This trail runs from north side Rochester across to Lake Orion and paralell with Orion street. Its a well paved road (sand) where running and bicyckling is easy.
When you run from Lake Orion to Rochester, walk through Rochester and connect to Clinton River Trail. This brings you west to Auburn Hills and beyond.

I like going here because it is not far to travel to and it can be group family outing. The only thing that if your allergic to yellow jacket bee stings need to be aware.

We were a family group of 4 and we were very impressed. We have probably done 10 escape rooms in various cities and this one rates in our top two. From the minute you arrive the staff is incredibly friendly. There has been a lot of thought and work put into the room. We found the quality of the room top notch and the special effects were a lot of fun. Very realistic. The clues are not easy but if you work as a team you can figure them out. They will give you clues if you need them and through the hour they gave us little "nudges" of information to put us in the right direction but still leave it to you to solve. Some rooms we've been to actually give you the full clue which we think takes away from the game. We will most definitely be back when they have their new rooms up and running.

An awesome place for food, shopping, people watching & exercise. All the high end designers, anchored by big box stores Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Macy's & Nordstrom, are here.
The food court blows all other malls out of the water. Just walking around the mall gives you miles of exercise as you window shop & people watch. If you can't find it here, you aren't trying!

Saw Bruno Mars here with a group of friends. The acoustics in this place are awesome, and there really doesn't seem to be a bad seat in the house!
My only issue with this spot is the enormous and overwhelming traffic jam in and out of this place at the beginning and end, as it seems that they still haven't yet added additional entrances to alleviate the congestion through the main entrance way.
Otherwise, love the venue and will definitely be back.

Recently saw Nana's Naughty Nickers with a friend and this production is 5+. The actors, set, costumes, extra stage business, everything was perfect. So professional, polished and entertaining. But Meadowbrook MUST do something about the lack of parking. It took nearly 30 minutes to find a spot a half mile away. That is totally unacceptable. It's a good thing we left early or we would have been late for the performance
