5 Must-Do Things in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan

There’s something about Bloomfield Hills that sneaks up on you. Maybe it’s the tree-lined streets that look straight out of a painting, or the quiet elegance of its architecture. Either way, this little pocket of Michigan has a way of slowing life down; the good kind of slow, where you actually feel your breath catch up to you.

And if you’re spending a day (or a weekend) here, there are a few experiences that have to make your list. Let’s start with the one that’ll make you rethink what “relaxation” even means.

1. Try The Next Generation of Relaxation

Aescape is at number one for a reason. Do you remember when someone introduced you to something so good, you wondered how you’d lived without it? That’s what this feels like.

Aescape is an AI-powered robotic massage that puts you fully in control of your experience—from focus areas and pressure to music and more. You settle into a private space, select your session, and the system adapts in real time to your body.

It’s calming, completely solo, and removes the social layer of a traditional spa—perfect for travelers and locals in Bloomfield Hills craving both innovation and relaxation.

2. Stroll the Cranbrook Gardens

If you love beauty in its quietest form, Cranbrook Gardens is your sanctuary. The space is part art museum, part nature retreat, and entirely stunning. Every path feels intentional, like it was designed to make you pause. Bring a coffee, wander, and let the landscape work its quiet magic.

3. Explore the Cranbrook Art Museum

Just next door is the Cranbrook Art Museum, a gem for design lovers and daydreamers alike. You’ll find modern art, architecture exhibits, and interactive installations that make you think (and occasionally laugh at yourself). It’s one of those places where you can spend hours without realizing it.

4. Have a Slow Brunch at The Fed

You know that perfect brunch spot that somehow balances cozy and chic? That’s The Fed. Think fresh coffee, local ingredients, and a menu that actually makes decisions hard. Sit by the big windows, people-watch a little, and just let the morning unfold.

5. Take a Drive Down Lahser Road

Lahser Road isn’t just a drive, it’s a small escape. The winding roads, leafy canopies, and stately homes make it feel like you’ve wandered into a movie scene. Roll the windows down, play something easy, and let Michigan show off a little.

Bloomfield Hills might not shout for attention, but maybe that’s the charm. It’s a place that rewards you for slowing down, for noticing. And when your body and mind both need that reminder, start where it all resets: at Aescape.
