Situated on 900 acres in the northwest corner of Michigan’s Lower Peninsula along the shores of Lake Michigan’s East Grand Traverse Bay, the Grand Traverse Resort & Spa, a former winner of Family Circle’s Family Resort of the Year Award, is known for its wide range of leisure pursuits. In summer, families head to the beach for swimming and watersports (including scuba diving!), and there's also sailing, 54 holes of golf, and dozens of tennis courts. In the winter, there's skiing nearby. And year-round, there is a spa and 15,000-square-foot indoor water playground. Through November 1, families can take advantage of the "Family Water Fun Package," which includes two nights' accommodations, family passes to the waterpark, one free in-room movie or video game rental, and 30 arcade tokens. The package starts at $339 midweek (which works out to $169.50 a night) or $369 on weekends (which translates to $184.50 a night).
