Capture that sense of simultaneous joy and relaxation at any number of public green spaces around Traverse City. For a view of Grand Traverse Bay head over to the Open Space park adjacent to the Clinch Park Marina or enjoy a little quiet time in the gazebo at F&M park just off Washington Street in Downtown Traverse City. Families love Clinch Park for the splash pad and the Civic Center Park for the updated equipment including a playground zip line.

Big parks, little parks and pocket parks, they are all around the region. Take a look at the listings below for options.
