Pretty good for TC

This remains a "better than you would expect" club for Traverse City. Visited on a recent Thursday evening. Cover was $25, more than typical for a Thursday, but a feature act was performing. Have to ding the value rating a bit for that. No alcohol is served; a can of pop was $3.25. I hadn't visited for a couple of months, and as a result a majority of the dancers were new to me. The stage work is better than average, with a ring available for the dancers to climb/perform on. Dancer attractiveness varies considerably, from 5s to 9s. The VIP dance area is walled off from the rest of the club, but only very short walls separate each cubicle, so there is no real privacy within the VIP area. "Couch" dances are $20, though they aren't really couches, more like padded benches against a wall. It's not bad, but it's not luxurious either. On occasion, 2-for-$30 specials are offered. Bed dances are $30.

But, oh, the quality of the dances. This is not Detroit, and there is very limited privacy, so you won't get extras. And unfortunately, though you can touch dancers legs/waist, contact to boobs/butt is generally frowned upon. I went back with two different dancers, one who was new to me, one who I've spent time with before. Within the limits mentioned above, the grinding on the couches was strong from both of them. And the dancer who I got bed dances from considered it her solemn duty to get me off. I was planning on seeing the feature, but instead left very happy after less than an hour. I will return.
