Mindful meoweler tips

Visit the Witch's Hat Depot Museum

South Lyon was once a major train stop, this museum is in a fascinating building that looks like a witch's hat! Climb aboard historic train cars and tour memorabilia from the town's railroad days.

Check out McHattie Park

This park is a great place for a picnic, a walk, or even a swim in the spray park. Look out for the historic Dancer Log Cabin on the grounds.

Go to Yum Yum Tree for a sweet treat

This local ice cream, candy, and chocolate shop has been around since the 1950s. Try the hot fudge or Superman ice cream!
