autumn in northville

I just love Northville, Michigan. Steve and I rented a house there shortly after we were married and have very fond memories of our stay. (eventually we had to buy our first home and as you can tell by the downtown, the houses were a little out of our price range at the time)

At any rate, we stopped by this charming town recently and I’d like to share some of my favorite stops with you.

One of the most unique attractions is their fabulous children’s theatre.  It has lots of wonderful history and puts on great features for the whole family to enjoy.  Of course there are plenty of shops to peruse including some great clothing stores and one of my favorite shoe stores Lorla’s.  Some other great stops include Dancing Eye Gallery, Traditions, and The Stampeddler.

 

After you’ve worked up an appetite you can stop by Rebecca’s for a scrumptious lunch (the sweet potato fries are my fav) then get a flavor-full gelato for dessert from American Spoon.

 

And if you’re lucky enough to visit in the fall, a cider mill stop is a must.  I’ve been to my share of cider mills and Parmenters has the best fresh cinnamon-sugar donuts around… and of course their cider is pretty swell too.

This is just a small sampling of Northville’s offerings so I highly recommend you check out this sweet little downtown for yourself.
