Fisk Lake Gardens Sub. No.1
Walkable with great nature access
Walkability 7.2/10·Schools 8.8/10
What catches people off guard about this five-acre plat is the waterfront feel—Fisk Lake runs along the south side, though the lake itself is private to the property owners on it. Lake Drive hugs the shore, and Waterfront Park sits just a five-minute walk away. The neighborhood scores well on walkability, with a grocery store four minutes on foot and restaurants three minutes away; there are 174 dining options within a mile, which is the kind of density you'd expect closer to downtown Grand Rapids than you'd think you're getting here.
