Mex - Auburn Hills

It was Great!! Kids loved the carousel (5 x's) lol. We went to sea life aquariums rain forest cafe, and alot of the stores that we don't have in Saginaw anymore. Absolutely worth the trip!!

We had so much fun here. This place is so big and has so much to offer from Lego Land Discovery center to the aquarium to so many shops and a really big arcade! My kids and I had so much fun.

Edit after pandemic : I went on a Friday in the morning between 10:30 and 11 am. There were not a lot of people there and it was pleasant just to walk and get exercise. Not a lot of the stores nor restaurants were open during this time. I’m sure they have their own hours outside of mall time. My wife and I went back a week ago during late afternoon on a Friday and there were not as many people there as during the pandemic. We felt a lot safer. Great Lakes Crossing is still one of the better malls we’ve been to around the area. Original review during pandemic: Too many people during the pandemic. Still to crowded to feel comfortable and I felt so overwhelmed I had a panic attack. Stores are unique and some have people restricting the amount of people that can go in each.

There are many shops and outlet stores to choose from at this mall. The food court offers a wide variety of fast food options, as well as several excellent restaurants. Due to COVID, the hours have been shortened, and although masks are encouraged, they are not mandatory. The mall opens early at 8am for mall walkers, with stores opening at 10am (11am on Sundays). The mall's large oval layout makes it a great place for walking in hot or cold weather.

This is a fantastic destination with a variety of stores, restaurants, and 2 major attractions - Sea Life and Legoland. Both of these attractions were very enjoyable and my grandchildren had a great time. Additionally, there is a large free play area for children in the middle of the mall.
