1. Admire the Beauty of Spring
When seedlings sprout, plants start to grow, and flowers paint the world bright with color, it’s time to head outdoors and enjoy the warmer weather, the fresh air, and all the beauty around you. Flint has plenty of breathtaking spring sights, from Applewood Estate’s spectacular blooming gardens and historic orchards at 1400 E. Kearsley Street to the magnificent sunsets over scenic Thread Lake between Howard and Crocker Avenues.
Enjoy a picnic and a few peaceful hours at the picturesque Stepping Stone Falls and Picnic Area at 5161 Branch Road and watch the water cascade over the many intricate artificial steps and levels into Mott Lake below.
