Oct 7

3 min read

Fall is one of the best times of year to live in the Traverse City area. The summer crowds begin to fade, the trees turn brilliant colors, and cooler temperatures make it the perfect season for golf, wine tasting, hiking, biking and exploring Northern Michigan.

At Oak Shore Commons, you can enjoy all of it from a modern apartment community conveniently located at 6455 US-31 in Williamsburg, just minutes from downtown Traverse City and directly across from the Grand Traverse Resort.

⛳ Fall Golf Is Better When You Live Here

For golfers, Oak Shore Commons is in an exceptional location. The Grand Traverse Resort is directly across US-31 and offers 54 holes of championship golf, making it easy to enjoy a fall round without a long drive. But the golf lifestyle doesn't have to end when the weather turns colder. Oak Shore Commons features an indoor golf simulator, giving residents another way to enjoy the game throughout the year. The community also provides access to indoor pickleball, a fitness center and other recreational amenities. Imagine finishing your workday, grabbing your clubs and enjoying an autumn round of golf—or walking over for some indoor practice when the temperatures drop.

That's the advantage of living where you play.

🍷 Fall Is Wine Country Season

The Traverse City area is also famous for its wineries and vineyards, and autumn may be the most beautiful time to explore them. The Old Mission Peninsula is just a short drive from Oak Shore Commons and offers an exceptional collection of wineries surrounded by vineyards, rolling hills and views of Grand Traverse Bay. Spend a fall afternoon touring wineries such as Chateau Chantal Winery and Inn, Mari Vineyards, Brys Estate Vineyard & Winery or Chateau Grand Traverse. Enjoy a tasting, take in the fall colors and then head back home to Oak Shore Commons. With so many wineries within easy reach, you can make wine country part of your regular Northern Michigan lifestyle rather than just an occasional vacation.

🍂 Fall Recreation Is Right Outside Your Door

Golf and wine are only part of the experience. Oak Shore Commons is located near Grand Traverse Bay, public beaches and the TART Trail, giving residents convenient opportunities for walking, biking and enjoying the outdoors. The nearby Vasa Trail system also provides additional opportunities for hiking, biking and winter recreation.
