What to know

Choose the experience, then follow the right start.

Traverse City is the hub, but the best activity does not always begin downtown. Trail guests may check in near the resort and transfer to an approved trailhead. E-bike guests choose Grand Traverse Resort with Memories or the Leelanau Trail with our partner Riding Electric. Watercraft instructions depend on the lake and selected boat.

That clear separation matters. It gives guests accurate expectations and keeps the site honest about each real operating area.

Always use the meeting details in your confirmation. Do not navigate to an old address or assume that two different activities share a pickup point.

Trail days near Traverse City

Choose guided Polaris ATV and UTV time for a hosted experience, or select a self-guided duration when you want more flexibility. First-time and experienced riders receive the activity-specific orientation required for the booking.

  • Guided options typically offered in one- or two-hour formats
  • Self-guided options commonly offered for two, four, or eight hours
  • Trailhead logistics coordinated from the correct check-in

Bayfront and open-road days

Choose a Memories e-bike ride from the Grand Traverse Resort area, or explore the Leelanau Trail with our partner Riding Electric. For an open-road outing, a Polaris Slingshot turns Old Mission Peninsula, M-22, Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive, the Mackinac Bridge, or the Tunnel of Trees into part of the adventure.

  • Two e-bike areas: Grand Traverse Resort and Leelanau Trail
  • Open-air Slingshot cruising
  • Scenic Northern Michigan route ideas without rigid itineraries

Lake days worth planning

Pontoons, double-decker pontoons with waterslides, deck boats, and jet skis serve different group sizes and energy levels. We deliver boats to every lake in our Traverse City-area service region, including Torch Lake, Crystal Lake, Lake Leelanau, and Long Lake.
