What to know
Local reach without confusing locations.
Our guests stay in downtown Traverse City, resort communities, lake houses, cabins, campgrounds, and small towns throughout the region. This guide connects those places to the experiences that make geographic sense.
A community listed here is part of the area we serve or help guests plan from; it does not mean every machine is stored, delivered, or launched there. Your confirmation always identifies the exact check-in, pickup, transfer, delivery, or trailhead instructions.
Traverse City and the bays
Traverse City is the center of the trip for many guests. Downtown, Old Mission Peninsula, East Bay, West Bay, Grawn, and the surrounding Grand Traverse County area are convenient bases for building a day around trail riding, open-road cruising, e-bikes, or water.
