Traverse City, MI apartments for rent

With many waterfront views, outdoor activities, and fantastic festivals, Traverse City, Michigan is an engaging place to live.

This Midwestern city is home to the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, which has some of the most beautiful waterfront views not along the ocean. Dozens of freshwater beaches exist along both sides of Grand Traverse Bay. Freshwater fishing and boating are musts on the bay and on Boardman River and Boardman Lake in the center of town. Since Traverse City was a bustling port city, you'll see many lighthouses along the shore in and outside the city.

Another feature Traverse City is known for is its festival culture. You'll discover many fabulous festivals, like the Traverse City Film Festival established by filmmaker Michael Moore, who grew up here. You don't have to buy tickets to get in on the action—you can attend free film screenings in the evenings. In the summer, celebrate Independence Day by going to the National Cherry Festival, where you can pick cherries right from the tree. The Interlochen Center for the Arts is known for hosting notable touring acts, live theater, and national conferences.

Let's not forget that Traverse City has a wine coast full of vineyards and taprooms. The climate is also suitable for growing hops, and craft beer has a big appeal here. The city is also home to the country's best scoop of ice cream from Moomers Homemade Ice Cream. Explore Grad Traverse Commons, the must-visit shopping and dining destination inside a converted asylum. Head to downtown Traverse City for dinner and watch the sunset at Clinch Park Beach or Slabtown for bohemian-style dining and shopping.
