I like that every employee has no problem getting the conversation going. I have never had a even close to negative experience, especially the selection of products. Many Dispensaries have only like 4 or 5 choices for flower, these amazing folks usually have 15 to 20, and all tested fully. The only issue or negative is about space, the waiting room has not to much seating and when there is a customer at each sales p.o.s it gets loud and crowded feeling, of course it just my opinion as well. Overall in my opinion best dispensary south of GR, west of Ann Arbor to lake michigan, they do many cool promotions and sales that aren't repeats and/or disappointing gimmicks, aswell as surprise swag giveaways. Lake Effect, keep doin what you doin, yall make me a very happy customer and people I have brought your way have turned into loyal customers too. Love, peace, and good reefs!!
Dispensary response:

What can't I say. They feel like family to me. Now don't get me wrong, there have been rough patches. But the newer staff are completely amazing, okay and so are my original staff members, the og. lol. The staff is educated, they have certain budtenders that know about the different types of the product, and they just seem to care. Sam, Kyle from lake effect (ha sam), JB, you guys are just the most patient, and knowledgeable with me and my issues. But Jeremy, Jenni, Stephanie, you guys have been a great asset to me and continue to help me figure things out on rough days. The newer products, competitive prices, and overall staff is a one in a million. Thank you for truly caring and being patient with me and my disabilities. Thank you for getting to know me in order to help me best. Thank you for making me feel like family.
Dispensary response:
We appreciate all the kind words Angie! LE prides itself with having knowledgeable budtenders that are here to answer your questions and help you figure out what works best for you. Our patients feel like family to us also! We feel the Love! See you soon!

The quality of the flower is second to none. I seen Brandee today and not only was the flower top shelf,but so is she. Super cool,friendly and knowledgeable, she was. This dispensary is the only dispensary in Michigan that I go to. No ther facility has flower thats truly top shelf. Branded was awesome and beautiful. I am super stoked on the flower. I got some Rozay Cake and some Rainbow Cake. "Wow" is all I can say about the flower and Brandee the bud tender. My lucky day!!!!!!!!!!
Dispensary response:
Thank you for sharing your experience! We aim to provide the best products and service in the state and we definitely appreciate the kind words. Brandee is awesome!! The Rozay Cake from High Life Farms and the Rainbow Cake from Healing Organic Gardens are both fantastic flowers from two amazing growers! If you liked those cultivars ask what else we have from those grows on your next time in. See you soon!

I love this place. If I could go in and just hangout I would. Everyone is very friendly, chill, and knowledgeable. Plus they never hesitate to go the extra mile. Add lab testing into the mix, boom best, dispensary I've been to this far. Plus hands down best product I can find anywhere. Quality is always next level.
If I had to make one criticism, it would be this. I wish the strains had more information available online. I like knowing the most about my products before I purchase them. Plus it would make online ordering easier. (Not even really much a complaint)
10/10 would recommend
I'll be back soon
If you haven't been, you're missing out
Dispensary response:
Thank you so much for all the love! We try to have as much info online as possible, bare with us as we work for more and more thoroughness! Can't wait to have you back in soon!

Love Lake Effect, mostly great products flower, wax, and carts are amazing. But awhile back I ended up getting some Crown Caps but sadly ended up disappointed. 10mg a piece and have to take 6 of them to get anything out of it. Will be going back to Lake Effect, won't be getting any Crown Caps again.
Dispensary response:
Thank you for the great feedback! We appreciate the love and support! We are sorry you were not completely satisfied with your purchase. Crown Caps is truly is an amazing company with awesome products. If the 10mg dose was not strong enough, Crown Caps also provides 25mg and 100mg THC capsules that would surely do the trick! Hope to see you soon!

I was faithful to this place but they told us they wasnt going recreational but they did,charge taxes,raised prices,and let us medical patients down and I really liked the place it WAS a great place.
Dispensary response:
We are sorry you feel this way. As a medical patient you do NOT have to pay the recreational tax, and our medical prices have not been affected by the introduction of recreational. We appreciate your loyalty and hope that you will give us another chance at providing you with the products and services you love!

I made an order for pick up and the staff there was amazing. They were busy but accommodating, I waited for around 10 minutes waiting for my order and for my wait I was given a great discount on some pre-rolls. 10/10 would definitely go back and I would absolutely refer this place to anyone who wants to shop at a place with a friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great job Lake Effect!
Dispensary response:
