When winter snows begin to drift across this glacier-carved landscape, the entire region becomes a sparkling white playground for skiers, snowmobilers and snowshoe hikers. Traverse City outdoors will leave you anticipating tomorrow's next adventure.

Traverse City Golf
Discover Michigan's Golf Coast, selected by Golf Magazine as one of the top six golf destinations in the country. Ancient glaciers carved this region’s land, but it took the likes of Palmer, Nicklaus, Player and Weiskopf to create some of the most incredible golf you will find anywhere in the world. Tee it up in Traverse City.
