Macomb

M

ACTIVE. NAUTICAL. LAID BACK. Metro Detroit’s “East Side” is a mix of waterfront fun, food, shopping and nightlife. A 30-to-45-minute drive northeast of downtown, this boater’s paradise has friendly restaurants and marinas on glorious Lake St. Clair. Discover bike paths, a pet-friendly outdoor mall, a minor league baseball stadium and plenty of entertainment along the M-59 Corridor. You’ll need a car (or boat).

Things to Do

Water is a theme, but there’s more to this district than that. Yacht charters, a legendary beach and entertainment strips along the water combine with a stately auto baron mansion to tour, a baseball stadium with four teams and places dedicated to the performing arts.

Shopping

Clinton Township’s open-air and pet-friendly The Mall at Partridge Creek is the centerpiece of this district’s retail scene. Combine that with distinctive downtown shopping districts in more sleepy towns such as Romeo and New Baltimore.
