Historic Parshallville Grist Mill
8507 Parshallville Rd., Fenton; 810-629-9079; parshallvillecidergristmill.com
A “Michigan Historic Site,” the 143-year-old mill is one of few water-powered mills left in the state. They make cider, donuts, caramel apples and homemade apple pie. Their cider is personally heralded as being made the “old-fashioned way” creating a different taste depending on available apples every time. Photo via @shelbss_baylls.
