Mayfield Township offers a quiet country lifestyle near Lapeer
Founded in 1843, Mayfield Township is a rural enclave 60 miles from Detroit. A lumber-producing area with numerous sawmills, land was sold to homesteaders as it was cleared. Today, the township is made up of small farms and locally owned trade businesses. Limited commerce can be found along Highway 24, which runs through the area and will take you two miles into downtown Lapeer for retail shopping. If you don’t have a car, there’s limited public transportation through the GLTA bus system, with routes through Mayfield, Lapeer, Elba and Deerfield Townships. Close to Lake Huron and several smaller lakes, Mayfield Township is 76 miles from Detroit Metropolitan Airport and has its own small private airport for commercial and industrial cargo. Only 35 square miles, the township employs one full-time police officer, has a small recycling center and works with the city of Lapeer to provide ambulance and fire protection services.

Waterside parks have trails, boating and hunting areas
Even among the lush farmland, you can find several dedicated parks and nature preserves. The Lapeer State Game Area is a wildlife conservation area just outside the township. Only sometimes staffed, the preserve has designated field trails and a space for dog training. Located along a lake, the park offers boating and fishing in addition to hunting, camping and target practice ranges. Rowden Park can be found at the edge of the city of Lapeer. At 65 acres, it’s the largest park in the area and is across from McLaren Hospital. The green space provides guests with a one-mile asphalt walking trail, two boardwalks over wetland areas and pedestrian bridges. In the winter months, the park boasts a sledding hill to make snowy days into lifelong memories.
While there’s no indoor recreation at the parks, there’s plenty of fun to be had at the Laser Skating Center. Also called the Lapeer Area Sports Entertainment Rink, the venue was named Lapeer Skating Center when it opened in 1972. Today, the rink hosts three nights of open skating every week, as well as a reduced-price family night. There’s a concession stand with savory or sweet snacks for under five dollars and an arcade with games like Fruit Ninja and Skee-Ball.
