THE ULTIMATE WEEKEND GETAWAY FOR COUPLES & FAMILIES IN NORTHERN MICHIGAN

There’s nothing like a weekend getaway in Northern Michigan. Whether you’re planning a romantic trip with your partner, bringing the family, or getting away with friends, Grand Traverse Resort and Spa has everything you need for a vacation to remember. Discover the perfect on-property activities for your Traverse City golf outing, kids spring break trip, or girls getaway – and make the most of your stay with our unique package offerings.

COUPLES ACTIVITIES AT GRAND TRAVERSE RESORT AND SPA

Golfing, swimming, tall ship excursions, color tours, snowshoeing—no matter the time of year, you’ll find something to do while you stay at our four-season resort.

When it comes to views and amenities, couples looking for a romantic getaway will find just what they’re looking for in our modern Tower Rooms with beautiful views of the rolling Traverse City countryside. Once you get settled, treat yourselves to a spa package for the ultimate weekend of rejuvenation.

Those looking for more of a thrill can rent Jet Skis, head to the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore for some hiking and exploring, or try their luck at our nearby sister property Turtle Creek Casino, which is just a (free) shuttle ride away.

What’s a romantic weekend without fine food and drinks? Don’t forget to take advantage of Northern Michigan wine tasting, and end the night with dinner on top of the Tower at Aerie Restaurant or a perfectly cooked steak dinner from Bourbons 72 at Turtle Creek Casino.

FAMILY ACTIVITIES AT GRAND TRAVERSE RESORT AND SPA

Looking for weekend activities that the whole family can enjoy together? Grand Traverse Resort and Spa is full of fun family-friendly adventures for everyone. Located conveniently in the Resort’s lobby, The Den is a favorite go-to for fun games such as axe-throwing, arcade games, an escape room, bowling, and virtual reality.

Want something to do outdoors? Our four-season resort offers weekend activities for warm and cold weather. Make the most of the Michigan sun with our summer activities, or enjoy fall colors on the Resort’s 900 acres of Northern Michigan landscape. There’s still plenty to do in the winter, where the family can experience igloo dining, snowshoe and ski rentals, or winter golf.

Grand Traverse Resort and Spa hosts three award-winning golf courses, making for a great golf weekend getaway to play with friends or colleagues. Our Resort is always welcoming golf groups, and you can eliminate the hassle of traveling with your clubs with Ship Sticks. Enjoy varying challenge levels by playing 18 holes at The Bear, Spruce Run, or The Wolverine.

During your stay, you can also check out the Golf Academy to brush up on your skills and learn from experts.
