Our Conference Site

The Bayshore Resort is located on the beach in Traverse City, a gem of a small town located on Grand Traverse Bay on northern Lake Michigan.

It is at the hub of a five-county resort area that boasts some of the Great Lakes' finest beaches, walking trails, nature reserves, golf courses and a National Park. The greater Grand Traverse Region is known as "The Cherry Capital of the World," the nation's largest exporter of tart cherries as well as a leading producer of apples, peaches, big fish and award-winning wines.

The workshop site is within a ten-minute walk of downtown shops and restaurants, parks, marinas, libraries, galleries, museums and a college.

In the evenings during our workshops, we lead participants on visits to our favorites among the scores of interesting restaurants scattered over a 15-mile radius in this part of scenic Northern Michigan.

If you're planning to attend one of our workshops, we encourage you to consider spending a few extra days exploring the region. Contact us for further information about local attractions matching your interests.
