SLEEPING BEAR DUNES NATIONAL LAKESHORE

If you’ve never witnessed the 111 square miles of inspiration that are Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, then you’ll want to put these tawny dunes towering over aquamarine waters on your bucket list. Already been to Sleeping Bear Dunes? Then you understand that a soul can never soak in enough of the scenery. Here’s your insider’s guide to the long and lovely Leelanau County stretch of this national park: PHILIP A. HART VISITORS CENTER The park visitors center is in Empire, at the southwest corner of Leelanau County. Purchase your park pass here, take in exhibits and a slide show and learn about ranger-led interpretive programs.

GO TO THE BEACH! North Bar Beach is where a shallow channel connects North Bar Lake to Lake Michigan. About 2 miles north of Empire. From Empire go north on LaCore Road to right on Voice Road then left on North Bar Lake Road.

The gorgeous beaches of Lake Michigan’s Good Harbor Bay can be accessed off M22 at the ends of CR669 and CR651. There’s superb sand here, and a left at the end of CR669 leads you to where sweet, shallow Shalda Creek flows into Lake Michigan.

One of Lake Michigan’s most spectacular destination beaches is at the historically restored town of Glen Haven, on M109 a couple miles west of Glen Arbor. Too crowded? Turn left at the water and find miles of sandy beach.

HIKE Find the trailhead for the 1.5-mile round-trip Empire Bluffs hike on Wilco Road, just a stone’s throw south of the visitors center. A short climb climaxes 40 stories above Lake Michigan and delivers a view of sparkling water, South Manitou Island and a meandering stretch of shoreline.

The Dune Climb is the takeoff point for a 3-mile round-trip hike to Lake Michigan. This immersion into the dune ecosystem is rewarded by a cool dip on a pristine Lake Michigan beach. But be forewarned: this is a strenuous trip, so make sure you and your hiking pals are physically prepared.

Wear sandals with a heel-strap (the sand gets hot, hot, hot—bare feet and flip-flops don’t work!) and pack water, sunscreen, snacks and your cell phone.

k Park entrance fees run from $7 to $20 (for an annual pass). For information on purchasing them: 231.326.4700, nps.gov/slbe/planyourvisit/fees.htm.

TAYLOR BROWN

Find universal accessibility information for the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore at nps.gov/slbe/planyourvisit/accessibility.htm.

For more information about the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, including campgrounds: nps.gov/slbe; 231.326.4700.

A half-mile trail off Port Oneida Road north of Glen Arbor leads to Pyramid Point. A breathtaking panorama of water, sky and North and South Manitou Islands. Sunsets are unforgettable.

PIERCE STOCKING SCENIC DRIVE Get the lay of the Sleeping Bear landscape by following the interpretive stops on the 7-mile drive that winds through dunes and forests and offers expansive overlooks. The drive begins on M-109, 3 miles north of Empire.

DUNE CLIMB This mountain of a sandbox is a must-do. Climb to the top for views of the Glen Lakes (including the Little Glen beach across the road where you can rinse the sand off when you are finished playing on the dune!) and the historic D.H. Day Barn—then run and tumble your way down. Find the Dune Climb 5 miles north of Empire on M109.

Premier Waterfront Lake Leelanau HISTORY IS FUN The national park service has taken the hamlet of Glen Haven back to its historic roots, complete with a general store that sells old-fashioned treats and toys, a working blacksmith shop and a wooden boat museum next door. Maritime history comes alive at the nearby Sleeping Bear Point Coast Guard Station Maritime Museum, where a live reenactment of a shipwreck rescue (in which Raggedy Ann & Andy play the part of the rescued) happens every summer day at 3 p.m.

More than a dozen preserved 19th-century farmsteads dot Port Oneida Rural Historic District north of Glen Arbor off M22.

See many of the farms from the road, or strike out on the Bayview Trail (trailhead on Thoreson Road). Mark your calendar for the annual Port Oneida fair, held August 12 and 13 in 2016.

PADDLE AND FISH Slow, shallow and beautiful, the Crystal River winds through Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Shoot the culverts under CR675. Find rentals at Crystal River Outfitters in Glen Arbor. 231.334.4420, crystalriveroutfitters.com.

Builders own custom Cra sman style home. Superb cra smanship, main floor master suite, large upscale kitchen, gorgeous fireplaces, walkout lower level, guest bedrooms up with a private veranda.

Lush landscaping warm & inviting just like this fine home. 100’ private S. Lake Leelanau frontage. 2.4 miles from the village of Lake Leelanau. $1,075,000 mls 1805237

Bloody Good!

The Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail stretches from north of Empire all the way to Bohemian Road (and Good Harbor beach) north of the Port Oneida Rural Historic District—a distance of over 17 miles. The trail is paved with the exception of two short stretches north of Glen Arbor: a crushed aggregate section through the Port Oneida District and a boardwalk through a wetland along Westman Road. sleepingbeartrail.org.

NORTHERN L AT I T U D E S DISTILLERY

TAYLOR BROWN

SET SAIL FOR THE ISLANDS North and South Manitou Island adventures begin with the trip across Lake Michigan’s Manitou Passage on a Manitou Island Transit ferry. The ferry to South Manitou runs daily in the summer, so you can daytrip or camp overnight on this beautiful island with its 19th-century lighthouse, ancient stand of virgin cedars known as the Valley of the Giants, and motorized tours of what was once a bustling pioneer community. The ferry stops only once a day on North Manitou, so you’ll have to spend the night in one of the rustic campsites. Find miles of wooded and shoreline trails, an inland lake and historic cottages.

CEDAR

LELAND

Known for authentic Polish sausage and smoked meats, this quiet village in the middle of Leelanau Peninsula is full of other surprises, too, including a worthy yarn shop, jewelry store/gallery, and a bustling taco stand/hydro farm.

Watch boats putt in and out of the harbor, charter a fishing trip, hop the ferry to the Manitou Islands, browse the shantyboutiques of Fishtown—then take a table at one of the fabulous restaurants in this charming village. lelandmi.com.

GOLF The serene and beautiful Arnold Palmer–designed Manitou Passage Golf Course is set in the gorgeous Leelanau landscape below Sugar Loaf Mountain.

A challenging course that welcomes players of all levels. Nicely appointed Arnie’s Grill makes for a great lunch or drink break. 231.228.6000, manitoupassagegolfclub.com.

There is no way to spot a car since the river mouth is a swamp, so be prepared to paddle back. leelanauconservancy.org.

MAPLE CITY A tiny, scenic town that got its start as a shoe-peg factory set amid a swath of maple timber. The village’s original name, Pegtown Station, lives on at the Pegtown Station restaurant, home to some of the best pizza and breakfasts around. Find great smoked meats here at Gabe’s Country Market, and pick your own blueberries and raspberries in season at Westover Market.

EXPLORE FISHTOWN A wharf and a collection of authentic Great Lakes fishing shanties is home to boutiques, eateries and the century-old Carlson’s Fishery, where the smoked fish is legendary.

LAKE LEELANAU Straddling the picturesque Lake Leelanau narrows—the thin channel connecting the lake’s north and south lobes—this quiet town is becoming a miniature masterpiece of flavors with a winery, an elegant and authentic Italian restaurant, a bakery, distillery (with tasting room) and a local grocery that churns out killer Indian take-out.

DON’T MISS Paddling through the Narrows Natural Area, the 2,350 foot-long wetland that joins North and South Lake Leelanau. Watch for raptor nests and all manner of flora and fauna. Rent kayaks or SUPs Suttons Bay Bikes, 231.421.6815, suttonsbaybikes.com.
