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.
