Don't be dismayed by the frigid temperatures and tons of snow; Blue Shore House is used to this lovely winter Northern Michigan brings. And don't even think that my town is quiet and people are non-existent....in fact it is quite the opposite. Traverse City in February brings tons and TONS of activities to enjoy the great outdoors (just as long as you bundle up) or keep you warm (as long as you drink lots of wine). Check out these February activities:
Celebrate love, wine, and chocolate at the annual Taste the Passion event put on by Leelanau Wineries. Tickets sell out quickly so be sure to purchase so that you and your Valentine can enjoy the wine trail.
Throw on your winter clothes, boats, hats, mittens, etc. and go to the Winter Microbrew Fest put on by Porter House Productions. A week long calendar of everything craft beer lead up to the much anticipated beer festival that locals flock to in groves. The music, beer, and just being outside (under heated tents of course) make getting through the cold temperatures well worth it.
The laughs return this year! TC residents are very excited for the return of Michael Moore's comedy festival. This year they teamed up with National Cherry Festival for other fun events too. HINT** they are closing Front Street downtown and making it into one big ice skating rink! How cool is that?!
Have I mentioned that Traverse City is a foodie town and there are A-MAZ-ING restaurants everywhere known throughout the country? Well, the end of February promises to be a very busy week of eating because participating restaurants offer three course meals for only $25. The website promises "this is your chance to experience culinary wonders of the TC region at an affordable price." Enjoy!
There are many MANY more events happening so make sure you pack warm, drive safe, and we'll see you soon! Oh, and be sure to check out my VRBO link for updated summer calendar. Dates are filling up fast.
