Overlooking Grand Traverse Bay in Northern Michigan, Traverse City is gorgeous -- a lush, green landscape along the sparkling waters of Lake Michigan. It is considered one of the state's top fishing regions, the nation's largest producer of tart cherries, home to spectacular vineyards, beaches and a National Lakeshore, forests, fantastic boating and sailing, and ski areas. Because of everything Traverse City offers, it is considered a top tourist destination -- and an amazing place to live.
The heart of the city, Downtown Traverse City, is a walkable blend of unique shops, art galleries, top-rated restaurants, theaters, and the Downtown Farmers Market. Downtown is home to the largest film festival in the Midwest, the Traverse City Film Festival. Also held downtown, you won't want to miss the National Cherry Festival in July. Be sure to check out the historic City Opera House, built in 1891, or catch a play at the Old Town Playhouse.
