Maple City Houses for Sale

Maple City, a quaint neighborhood northwest of Traverse City, is home to fewer than 300 full-time residents, many of whom have deep roots in the area. The neighborhood features spacious yards and a mix of home styles, including split levels, farmhouses, and cottages, with newer homes built in the early 2000s along South Olivia Drive. The village center at West Burdickville and Maple City roads hosts two restaurants, a gas station/convenience store, and a few shops. Broomstick Kitchen & Taphouse, located in a historic schoolhouse, offers burgers, tacos, and an extensive beer list, while Pegtown Station serves pizza and brunch. The Leelanau Curling Club and Sleeping Bear Bay Club provide indoor recreation, and Myles Kimmerly Park offers outdoor activities with soccer and baseball fields, volleyball, tennis and basketball courts, and an 18-hole disc golf course. The park also features shaded picnic areas, grills, restrooms, and a nearly mile-long hiking trail. Nearby farms like Bohemian Lavender Farm and Red Gate Farm sell fresh produce and preserves, with pop-up farmstands common along Shimek Road. For grocery needs, Bunting’s Cedar Market is 3 miles east. Maple City is about 17 miles from Traverse City and 22 miles from Cherry Capital Airport. The area is safer than the national average, and students attend Glen Lake Elementary, Middle, and High School, which have high ratings and offer vocational training and dual enrollment opportunities.
