Learn more about Empire
Tiny Empire punches above its weight as the gateway to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Climb massive sand mountains that reward huffing and puffing with spectacular Lake Michigan panoramas. The Philip A. Hart Visitor Center offers maps for exploring Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive, where each turnout reveals postcard-worthy vistas. Kayak the impossibly clear waters where the lake bottom seems close enough to touch. Little Glen Lake's shallow waters warm up nicely for swimming when Lake Michigan feels too brisk. After beach time, the village's handful of shops and eateries serve visitors with small-town friendliness. For quieter adventures, hike the trails at Pearl Lake Natural Area, where locals go when the national lakeshore gets crowded.

Great Wolf Lodge Traverse City
10/10 Excellent
"Everything good"
Grand Beach Resort Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Good stay busy but pleasant"
Hampton Inn Traverse City
10/10 Excellent
"Clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful."
Park Place Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"The 5 stars are all about the location. The perfect spot to see Traverse City. There are a few negatives, the main elevator does not work so all guests must use the service elevator which is worn and the wait can seem like several minutes. The top floor restaurant has a beautiful view but because the main elevator is broken you have to either take the service elevator which opens into this old dirty kitchen area or the stairs which for a couple approaching 70 can be daunting. BUT as said, the location and friendly staff out trumped the poor perception of the elevator situation just be advised. Also the restaurant staff and offerings were off but with the location there are many other options."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Traverse City, MI
8/10 Good
"First, i thought the property was difficult to find..it is not well marked and it is surrounded by other bldgs. The staff are beyond helpful & the checkin was flawless. The rooms are ample in size, and have good amenitites but the bathroom is dated. My only big complaint are the beds. Hard as rocks. I had a bad sleep. Breakfast was wonderful..they had everything. I would not likely return because of the beds.. if the beds were replaced i would absolutely return!"
