Why Pick DISH TV over Cable TV in Lapeer, MI?

With easy access to I-69 and just an hour away from Detroit, the city of Lapeer, Michigan, is a historic town with plenty to love. Lapeer is based off la pierre, which is French for "rock" (otherwise called "flint")—and perhaps the town gets its unique name from French traders who passed through the Flint River that runs through town.

To add to the town's history, many of the lovely downtown homes are on the National Register of Historic Places because they've been restored to their original Greek Revival style. Can't see any of these spectacular structures in person? Get your fix with DISH and HGTV—we bet Chip and Jojo can show you historic homes they've perfectly renovated.

But history isn't all Lapeer's about. Rub elbows with your neighbors at the weekly Historic Farmers Market, sip a glass of Wills Winery's chocolate raspberry red, or check out the shows at Gallery 194. Michigan's Sunrise Side is still somewhat of a secret compared to its west counterpart, but nearby Lake Huron is one of the best places around to see the sun come up—unless you can see the sun rise from the air; Sky Adventures in Oxford offers early morning rides so you can see the gorgeous streaks of blood orange, peach, and crimson as the sun breaks through twilight.
