Lapeer County, Michigan

Lapeer Location Map Michigan

Michigan’s mitten shape holds many rising stars. Lapeer County is one of them. You’ll find this part of the Great Lakes State in the eastern part of Lower Michigan. It’s only about an hour north of Detroit.

Lapeer County has a bit of everything. It has rolling hills, sparkling lakes, and forests that burst with color come fall. The county seat, also named Lapeer, is a quaint city with a historic downtown.

Locals here are proud of their agricultural roots. You can’t miss the farms along the countryside. It’s not all fields and barns though. Fishing, hiking, and camping are also big draws.
