Don't worry, I speak jive.
Traverse City proper is a traffic horror show at times during the year. Fudge Season, Cherry Festival, Air Show....
Traverse City is 2 hours away in good conditions*
It's awesome from May-October, give or take. The area anyway, I've never actually been to Cheboygan. If you ski then year round I could see working too.
Traverse City is a good two hours away. I have been to that area quite a bit and it is two different lives. Rural and the people who live on the water. If you are from a city get ready to slow your ### down. Also prepare for a 8 month winter and shopping at the Walmart Super Center. It is beautiful though..Good Luck
Will this change college options for your sons?
I guess maybe I made someone mad but it's the best boat out of my choices. Florida or NC were the other front runners but I would have been gone 8-9 months out of the year on those boats and they are #### boats
You some kind of seal bub?

Petosky is a very nice town but that is a good 45 minutes. Pellston is a small town probably 30 minutes away.
Petoskey is really nice but also like an hour away (well again to visit, not sure to live). Keep in mind these are all gonna be like 2 lane highway type roads
I don't think so, neither is planning on going out there for my 2-3 year tour. After I'm stationed out there I should have top pick to come back west and go wherever I so choose.
unless you're living on one of the lakes everything up there is pretty much the same, at least in that general area. most of the smaller towns are going to have a local market and like a pizza place and a bar or two. Cheyboygan is probably one of the bigger cities and has a Wal-Mart...might be one in Gaylord too
According to one website I've found I can plan on visiting: Chicago, Grand Haven, Milwaukee, Sault Ste Marie, Mackinaw City, Duluth, Marquette, Thunder Bay Canada, Detroit, Windsor Canada, Sarnia Canada, Port Huron, Owen Sound Canada, Cleveland, and Toledo.
It really depends on the type of person you, Gaylord is very nice, but might be a longer commute than you want. Personally I would keep it under 30 minutes because in the winter you can double or triple that time. You also should know that "up north" is very touristy, all year round. If you don't want to deal with those people I would suggest you move further away from 75.
Yeah I would suggest living in Cheboygan unless you have a really compelling reason to live somewhere else. Commuting on snow-covered county roads is not going to be an enjoyable experience.
Time to learn to hunt, fish, ski, etc. The good news is from May-September, there's going to be a lot of awesome places to visit. You could do a ton of little weekend trips. There are few places nicer than Northern or Western Michigan in the summer.
Snowboarding is about 45-60 mins away depending on weather. Plenty of mountain biking. You'll find a drastic change in cost of living from NoCal.
You really kind of hit the jackpot for where you are going.CGRdrJoe said:
Actually a lot of million dollar homes up that way as the best inland lakes in Michigan are very near. Still way cheaper than the Traverse City area, and better IMO. Problem is access to a good airport and the cold ### winters, besides that I'm not sure I'd rather live anywhere in the world than in Northern/NE Michigan.SofaKings said:
