The closest restaurant is the former A &W which is a favorite to grab a hot dog (particularly after seeing a game?) – while you are grabbing the hot dog, why not take it to Warrior Park behind the fire department to picnic by the Huron River. Of course you can bike into Dexter for shopping at 2 major grocery stores. Grab a coffee by the clock tower and stop in to one of the boutiques or even visit the Dexter Library.

The Bates Farms community is convenient to Dexter, golf, restaurants (Dexter’s Pub is a fave), grocery, nearby parks, Chain of Lakes, and Ann Arbor. If you live here, or have lived here, we would like to know what you think of Bates Farms; comments are welcome.
