About the Area

McLaren Northern Michigan is situated in Petoskey, on the shores of Little Traverse Bay, gateway to Lake Michigan, overlooking the shores of Lake Michigan's Little Traverse Bay in the northern tip of Michigan's Lower Peninsula. Petoskey is a quaint resort community with unmatched beauty and charm and has been a destination for resorters for more than 100 years and for multiple generations. People return to soak in the rich views, breathe the clean air, dine at world-class restaurants, and shop in the specialty shops and boutiques of its historic downtown. Petoskey offers an idyllic way of life in a recreational paradise where golfing, boating, skiing, fishing, hunting, cycling and other opportunities abound. Petoskey was recently designated as one of America’s “101 Best Outdoor Towns.” Great schools, safe and friendly neighborhoods, cultural venues, world-class dining, resort amenities, and four seasons of abundant recreational opportunities await you in beautiful northern Michigan.
