Romeo's Crooked Creek Dairy Farm

Ice cream lover alert! Crooked Creek Dairy Farm in Romeo raises cows, milks them and whips it up into some fabulous ice cream flavors.  We trekked all the way out here to see it and taste it for ourselves. They not only sell the frozen dessert, they bottle their milk in both white and chocolate variety and sell both milk and dark chocolate candy bars. It is hormone and steroid free! There are picnic tables on the grounds and animals to enjoy. Greg and Dory have been running the farm for over 30 years.

Romeo Public Library


The Romeo Library was organized in 1900 and housed in the Kezar home on Church Street.  After the Kezars moved to California, they donated a some of money to have a library built within Romeo which still exists today on Church Street and appropriately named Kezar Library. When it was bursting at the seams, the Graubner family donated land for a new library which was opened in 2001 in the Frank Lloyd Wright prairie style. It is a very warm inviting place on Van Dyke just north of 30 Mile Road with beautiful artwork and appropriately named the Graubner Library.

The Lamb's Tail Antiques in Armada-Romeo

One of metro Detroit's top antique spots is situated half way between Romeo and Armada: The Lamb's Tail. So visible from Armada-Ridge Rd with intriguing yard art, it just begs to be explored. Bonnie and Terry have been selling from their historical barn for 18 years. Their little consortium of artists and pickers keep the place stocked. The whole area comes out for The Lamb's Tail's festive Harvest Day September 25th. Ummmm....yes, Suzie walked out with a few charming pieces! We voted for them here through Click On Detroit.

Miller's Big Red Greenhouses

Miller's Big Red Orchard and Cider Mill is the oldest U-Pick apple orchard in Michigan. Located on 32 Mile Rd in Romeo, they offer many homemade delectable items in their kitchens like pies, jams, jellies and breads as well as donuts to go along with their cider made on the premises. Thousands enjoy their haunted hayrides and corn mazes in the fall. There's even a petting farm for the little ones!
