Welcome to Downtown Portland!

Portland is home to small town charm.

Located at the confluence of the Looking Glass and Grand Rivers, downtown Portland is an incredibly unique destination that offers something for the entire family!

We have five great dining establishments, a wonderful coffeehouse and bakery, ice cream shops, bicycle and tube rentals, and great gift shops galore! And that's just a small sampling of the many great businesses that we have in our downtown.

We also have nearly nine miles of finished river trails running directly through downtown Portland. Bring the bikes, the rollerblades, or just walk our trails and then cap off the day by visiting one of our fine restaurants or ice cream shops.

Located approximately half way between Lansing and Grand Rapids, downtown Portland is your perfect "day trip" getaway! Take a trip down I-96 and exit at Kent Street to find downtown Portland. Experience the laid back, small town charm that Portland offers everyday!

Spend a day on the river of your choice! Some cities boast that "a river runs through" their city. Portland is the only Michigan Main Street community that gives you the choice of two!
