Once a Native American hunting ground
Only 10 miles from downtown Lansing, Haslett is a mostly rural community that gives its residents a peaceful and luxurious life right by Lake Lansing — outdoor recreation is plentiful, and spacious properties help homeowners live comfortably. What was once a hunting and fishing ground for local Native American tribes became a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts by the 1900s and continues to be one today. Despite the area’s secluded feel, plenty of shopping and dining options are nearby to keep people entertained.
Out in the more rural areas of Haslett there are some new communities of larger homes.
Lake Lansing is a 461-acre lake in Haslett just a few miles northeast of the state's capital.

Outdoor exploration on the lake
Haslett is known for its many parks and areas of exploration. “There are a ton of recreational areas by the lake. A lot of the county parks are pretty popular too,” says Joe Udry, a Buyers Agent with RE/MAX Real Estate Professionals who has over 20 years of experience and lives in the Lansing area. Lake Lansing Park North has 530 acres of mature woodlands and marshes for people to enjoy. Visitors can walk 10 miles along the trails, play a game of basketball or use the boat launch to get out on the water. Cross-country skiing is a popular activity when it snows. On the other side of the area, Lake Lansing Park South is a 30-acre site that includes a sandy beach and multi-purpose dock. Locals can go for a swim, fish for Bluegill or take their little ones to the beach playground. For those who want to visit a more traditional park, Hillbrook Park, Orlando Park and Towner Road Park are all in the community and offer amenities such as playgrounds, pickleball courts, tennis courts and more.
