Ten years ago we decided to rent a cottage on Sleeping Bear Bay for a four-generation, week-long vacation. We were hooked! That visit eventually led to the purchase of a place at The Homestead on the beach. Activities include swimming, sailing, kayaking, biking, and skiing. But by far the most time is spent hiking the trails and beaches in the Park, with Sleeping Bear Point one of our favorite spots. Leelanau County in general and Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore in particular are VERY special places.
