Downtown Lake Orion Downtown Lake Orion combines a unique, historic central business district with a commercial corridor that extends south along M-24. The Village contains important historic residential and commercial architecture, and is designated a National Register Historic District as of 2006.
Downtown is a destination for numerous annual events, with nearby services, shopping, restaurants and entertainment. Historic neighborhoods along the northeast boundary of the core downtown and lakefront add to Downtown Lake Orion's distinct sense of place.
Though small in size, few communities offer so many amenities. Housing opportunities range from affordable apartments to lakefront mansions. Recreational opportunities are within walking distance with six public parks, a 500-acre lake, the Paint Creek, and two major trail systems - the Polly Ann (14 miles) and Paint Creek Trails (9 miles) . Lake Orion is one of the few significant trail system hubs with connections to the north / south and east / west connections to the ambitious Michigan trail system - with plans to eventually connect to Canada and the international trail network
