Fenton Michigan

Just 50 miles to the northwest of Detroit lies the quaint little city of Fenton. Originally it was settled by Clark Dibble and named Dibbleville in 1834. Later William Fenton and Robert Leroy purchased land there in 1837 and named the location Fentonville. William Fenton went on to become the Lieutenant Governor of Michigan and the town took the name Fenton in 1863. The city still has many of it's old buildings which give a delight of antiqueness and history to it. Take a walk through the park in the center of town along the Shiawassee River and enjoy a picnic in a fun little gazebo. Come winter time, take out the snowmobiles for longer than just a couple of months, and ride free in the gorgeous countryside.
