    Traverse City’s 49686 spans the sandy East Grand Traverse Bay shoreline and the scenic Old Mission Peninsula, home to wineries and the Mission Point Lighthouse, blending beach-town ease with wine-country charm and four true seasons (warm lake breezes in summer, vivid fall colors, and snowy, ski-friendly winters). Locals frequent Bryant Park, East Bay Park, and Traverse City State Park for swimming, paddleboarding, and sunsets, while the TART and Boardman Lake Loop trails plus nearby VASA singletrack make biking and running easy; Mt. Holiday offers close-to-town skiing. Daily needs are simple with Tom’s East Bay and Oleson’s, Cherryland Center shops, Planet Fitness, and Fit For You Health Club; cafe stops include Common Good Bakery and neighborhood spots, and The Filling Station microbrewery anchors casual dining. According to Zillow Market Trends, recent median rent sits around $2,000, with most listings ranging roughly $1,400–$3,000+. The vibe is friendly and pet friendly, with walkable lakeside pockets and quiet residential streets, and it’s a quick hop to downtown galleries, festivals, and restaurants.
