Traverse City is Northern Michigan’s attraction destination nestled on beautiful East Grand Traverse Bay. Known as a four-season playground, it is now celebrated for quality cuisine, wine and culture. Miles of sugar-sand shoreline include the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore with romantic lighthouses and coastal villages.
The glacier-sculpted landscape of orchards and vineyards includes more than 20 golf courses. Swimming, sailing, canoeing, paddling, hiking, and fishing are favourite warm-weather activities, while winter turns the region into a playground for skiers, snowmobilers and snowshoers.
As evening falls, Traverse City comes alive with a vibrant nightlife. Local breweries, craft cideries, and wine bars offer a diverse array of libations, and the city’s dining scene boasts everything from upscale restaurants to cosy eateries serving fresh, locally sourced cuisine.
