Leelanau County Winery Accommodation

This only hotel in this little city was a find! It is located at the South end of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, near the Pearce Stocking Scenic Drive through this end of the Park. Taking it will bring you to the closest you might ever be to Lake Michigan in this National Lakeshore Park with the Lake Michigan Tutnout. Then, there is about a 50 yard dirt path taking you to the dunes, where in about 40 yards you will be on the Dunes viewing glorious Lake Michigan!! The stay was in the Annex and for only overnight, the reservation made at the last minute on our way home from Mackinac Island. The reservation process was a bit different, but it worked out perfectly!! The room was clean and very pleasant, non-smoking with a noise curfew, equipped with a one-cup coffee pot, toiletries of soaps, shampoo and conditioner. To be honest, we do not remember if it had a microwave and small refrigerator. The bed was very comfortable for my bad back. It was not an issue for us. but some might not like that you needed to go to their bigger hotel a block away to get ice in your bucket. They had one room available for a rate that fit our budget of under $150. We will always check to see if they have availability when we come that way again, which will be within the next couple of weeks! Restaurants are sparse, but a great dinner restaurant,The Manitou, with a varied menu and delicious food is not very far away in the woods by Honor, Michigan. You will be glad you chose it!

Our stay at the Leland Lodge was wonderful! The property is incredibly family-friendly — our kids especially loved the Murphy bunks. The location is perfect, just a short walk to Fishtown, and the surrounding area was beautiful with fall colors beginning to show. From enjoying breakfast overlooking the golf course to relaxing around a bonfire at night, every moment felt special. John went above and beyond each day to make sure we had everything we needed, and his hospitality made our visit even better. We’ve been searching for a place to return to year after year, and the Leland Lodge checked all the boxes. We can’t wait to come back!

Nice room, great location, welcoming staff.

Everything thing was wonderful. Staff were amazing and very helpful

I loved the old fashioned decor and the place was very clean and tidy. The breakfast was really nice and there was flexibility within a time frame for when to be served. Just a heads up, there was a small sink in the room but the bathroom and shower was per floor and there was no TV if those are priorities for you. We didn't mind at all but others may find those two things a bit of a put off.

Beautiful property. Staff was friendly and we really enjoyed breakfast. We look forward to staying here again!
