Bay City Waterfront
Summer Weather in the Great Lakes Bay
Average High: 81° / Average Low: 60°
WHAT TO EXPECT
Summer days are a tall drink of water here. Think: breezy boat tours and freshwater sailing, lunch on the riverfront before a pedal trolley ride through town. It’s go-time to spend a day at the beach and sleep under the stars — or toss back frosty pints at an outdoor beer garden!
WHAT TO PACK
Shorts and short-sleeves or sundresses by day, with light jackets you can layer on at night, so there’ll be no need to head back to the hotel early (unless you want to). Pajamas and room service, anyone?
Things To Do
If there’s one thing that’s abundant in the Great Lakes Bay, it’s the opportunity to get outside and explore! Chances to paddle a river or pedal through town — wind in your hair, and maybe a cold brew in-hand — all here.
