Royal Oak, Michigan, is home to the Detroit Zoo, the Stagecrafter Baldwin Theatre and the Royal Oak Golf Course. But it's also just outside of Detroit, which means that there aren't just a lot of golf courses around, but there are a lot of other things to do as well. So whether you're catching a concert at Cobo Hall, watching a hockey game at Joe Louis Arena, or just doing some business at one of the nearby automaker headquarters, you're sure to enjoy your stay in Royal Oak.
