Romantic getaway

Life has a way of getting in the way sometimes. Especially when it comes to spending time with that special someone. Job, family…all the daily demands can steal precious time from your “couple time”. It’s time to get away. Just the two of you. To reconnect and recharge for a weekend. Fortunately, we have a solution. A relationship retreat. Allow us to explain… 

Friday 

You arrive shortly after 4:00 at Grand Traverse Resort & Spa. The ride up the elevator provides a magnificent view of the countryside. The late afternoon sun sparkles on the bay…magical. You arrive at Aerie Restaurant, appropriately perched near the top of the resort, just in time for your 7:00 reservations. The 360-view from up here is spectacular. Start with the popular cheese and charcuterie. Toast your good fortune with a glass of a local Chardonnay. For dinner, consider the grilled salmon done with fingerling potato salad, candied bacon and grilled asparagus. Ask about the daily specials too…the restaurant prides itself on locally sourced, in-season recipes. 

After dinner, duck into the lounge at Aerie for a nightcap and a little live music.
