Okemos is a hidden treasure in the area called Mid-Michigan. Located right outside of Lansing, on the east side, Okemos offers more than convenience to Lansing, but also a window to parts of Michigan that are off the beaten track and are exquisite. Surrounding Recreation: Surrounding areas offer events such as the Color Cruise and Island Festival in Grand Ledge, which celebrates fall with an unmatched combination of nature's glories and mid-Michigan good times. The towering hardwood trees compete to see which can most beautifully reflect colors on the river. Festivals and fairs aren't the only form of entertainment. Attend a tailgate party before a MSU football game, explore the corn maze at A Maizen Fun or enjoy fresh cider and homemade donuts at Uncle John's Cider Mill. Shop 'til you drop a diverse array of specialty stores, quaint antique shops, open-air markets, and traditional shopping centers. Bountiful bargains await you. Want to get off the beaten path and try something new? Cool off at the East Lansing Aquatic Center (located just a couple of miles from Okemos), solve a murder mystery onboard the Michigan Princess steamboat or go horseback riding at Sundance Riding Stables. Golf: There are ten golf courses within a 6-mile radius of Okemos, with Indian Hills right in the center of the town. Timber Ridge Golf Club, located 5 miles from Okemos is one of only 12 public courses in North America to be honored with the highest possible rating, five stars, by Golf Digest readers. This Michigan golf course is also listed in the Top 50 in terms of value for the money and course condition, and in the Top 10 courses for unrestricted walking. Timber Ridge Golf Club was honored by Golf Digest as America's 4th best new public course when it opened in 1990. Okemos, a treasure just waiting to be discovered in the heart of Michigan! With so many things to do and see here, it's no wonder the residents of Okemos have described it as "their little slice of heaven." Find homes for sale in Okemos Michigan
