Activities in the Area and at the Resort
In many ways, this place has remained mostly unchanged since the Ojibway dubbed it "Leelanau," which means "country of bliss." You'll notice that the speed hasn't changed much. The way of life is still laid-back and enjoyable. The harbor and dunes are still stunning, and the beaches are still broad. There are still plenty of things to choose from, some of which are easier and others which are more intense.
The fact that we are located within the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore adds to the uniqueness of many of the activities. The beaches, dunes, rivers, and lakes are unlike any other, and whether you want to enjoy them while swimming, strolling, hiking, climbing, riding, fishing, kayaking, or sightseeing, they will make your stay unforgettable. They're a living laboratory for birding, wildlife viewing, and nature hikes of all kinds, including dark skies and northern lights.
Try hang gliding, kite surfing, and scuba diving in the summer, or skiing, biking, or snowshoeing in the winter for extra action. To learn more about what to do in this beautiful part of Northern Michigan, click on the list.
Tennis
Discover Clay Courts with a view of Lake Michigan
The clay courts will present a new challenge for experienced players. They're easy on the joints and perfect for honing your racquet skills for beginning players. You'll love the gorgeous lakeside views and easy access to all of the Beach Club's amenities, no matter how long you've been playing. Their extensive selection of private and semi-private courses, as well as workshops for adults and children, are ideal for honing existing talents or developing new ones.
Boating
They can help you explore the coast of the Dunes in a kayak, test your fitness on a stand-up paddleboard, or simply relax in a good old-fashioned paddle boat. Regardless of the option you choose, you'll be able to take in the breathtaking view of the Sleeping Bear Dunes while relaxing in the comfort of the Beach Club, where a nice drink and a warm welcome await you. Powerboats are something they don't have at the resort. Unfortunately, renting them from the Beach Club causes some of the waterfront guests to be disturbed. Fortunately, they have pals who can assist you in this area as well.
Trails
The National Lakeshore is right outside your door, with miles of pathways of all degrees of difficulty. Whether you're searching for a relaxing afternoon walk with the family or a heart-pumping, sweat-inducing challenge, the area features some of Northern Michigan's best trails. The hotels, villas, and residences at The Homestead are all within walking distance of two of them. Others are only a few miles distant. For many of them, you'll need a park pass, which you may get as part of a lodging package, pick up at the Welcome Center, or purchase at any ranger station. When you arrive, they'll be pleased to give you a map. They can also get you set up and ready to go if you want to explore the trails on a bike, cross-country skis, or snowshoes.
Swimming
On a hot summer day, it's difficult to imagine anything better than a plunge in Lake Michigan's cold, clear waters in Sleeping Bear Bay. Unless it's to take a stroll along the gorgeous beach or build a sandcastle near the coast on the beach recently named "No. 1 of the 8 Best Beaches to Visit This Summer" by Money Magazine. Consider a journey down the Mountain Village pool's waterslide, the Beach Club pool's cascading waterfall, or the Spa's private pool's breathtaking vistas. They have teachers that can teach you or your children to swim if you or they do not know how to swim.
Fishing
Anglers refer to them as "holy waters." They're rare areas where the fishing is good and every cast provides the opportunity to wash away the stresses of daily life and recall what a wonderful planet we live in. A charter fishing trip allows you to appreciate the beauty of Lake Michigan while also providing a fun way to spend time with friends or family. Guests can fish along the Crystal River on the property. Fishing licenses are available from the Department of Natural Resources.
Lawn games
Consider the past. How did you and your family spend all of those lovely moments? "Playing games" is the answer for many of us.
We're not talking about the board games you play on rainy days. No, we're talking about classic lawn games to enjoy at the resort. So gather your loved ones and partake in the fun. All of them are complimentary:
- Connect Four
- Cornhole
- Croquet
- Jenga
- Ladder Ball
- Ring-On-A-String
Bird Watching
You've come to the perfect location if you're just starting your life list or if the Piping Plover is the last bird you need to see. A migratory flyway confluence, as well as extensive areas of conserved territory in Leelanau County, particularly around the Sleeping Bear Dunes, assure that this location will delight any birder. The Sleeping Bear Birding Trail, which maintains a list of good birding areas and offers a smartphone app to assist identify regional animals, is a terrific place to start.
Golf
- Mountain Flowers. This demanding nine-hole, par-3 executive course, which takes you up and down steep hills, over a glittering pond, over sand outcroppings, and back to a charming village, will not disappoint. Take your camera with you since the views of Lake Michigan, the Sleeping Bear Dunes, the Glen Lakes, and the Crystal River Valley are all worth photographing.
- Manitou Passage Golf Club. One of the most peaceful yet interesting golf courses in the country may be found on acres of rolling hills between Pyramid Point and Leland, just east of Good Harbor Bay. Arnold Palmer's parkland-style classic, Manitou Passage, is here. Wide-open meadows, deep hardwoods, red and white pine borders, significant elevation changes, and water dangers are just a few of the challenges.
The front nine has holes that meander through, climb over, and dip down corridors defined by fescues, hardwoods, and pines. Palmer named the eighth hole as one of his favorite par fives. You'll realize why once you try it.
The back nine isn't as mountainous as the front nine, but it's no less difficult. Its final hole is a short Par 5 with a water carry to the green that must avoid the bunkers on the left and the water on the right.
Golfers will have great memories of the course, clubhouse, and multi-level, heavily manicured terrace overlooking No. 18.
Biking
Road bikers will find the open road in Leelanau County to be both tough and wonderfully scenic, with its regular ascents and descents. Though biking is prohibited on the Sleeping Bear Dunes Heritage Trail, it is permitted on other paths in the National Lakeshore, and there are many more magnificent sites that will challenge mountain bikers and recreational riders of all skill levels.
The Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail is one of their favorites for getting some fresh air with the family. It connects to the Homestead and offers several miles of attractive and well-maintained trails for cyclists of all abilities. Another option is the Leelanau Conservancy's Palmer Woods mountain riding track.
Fitness
We offer the facilities to assist you to attain your next milestone or get started, whether working out is an old love or something you've been meaning to start. New Leaf, located in the center of Mountain Village, is brightly lit and equipped with cutting-edge cardio and resistance training equipment, free weights, and a variety of fitness courses to help anyone reach their goals.
Spa Amira
Amira is a site of breathtaking natural beauty, visible from hundreds of feet above Lake Michigan. It offers spectacular panoramic views of the Sleeping Bear Dunes and the Manitou Islands. It's been welcoming guests who want to unwind and rejuvenate in a classy country environment without losing the luxury and service they expect and appreciate for years. Its trademark therapies, which include locally derived herbs, plants, and minerals, as well as friendly personnel and beautiful vistas, await you.
Lillyjade, a Salon
Before entering the prettiest salon you'll ever see, you'll pass by shimmering ponds and babbling brooks. You'll be enchanted by a toasty fireplace, warm wood floors, soothing hues, soft leathers, sumptuous furnishings, stylish fixtures, and magnificent chair-side vistas. The assistance of a pleasant team of pros will also help.
Area Attractions

Those original winemakers have now met their match in brewers, cider makers, distillers, bakers, chefs, and chocolatiers who are just as passionate.

BLUSTONE VINEYARDS
The simplicity and beauty of Leelanau's "hidden" gem have long been one of the favorite aspects of the area.

Their name is a reflection of that connection, as well as the joy of life that they seek to instill in each sip of wine.
CAFE MANITOU AT THE HOMESTEAD
This is where the Sleeping Bear Dunes begin. Generations of families have laughed and loved, learned, and lived where the Crystal River meets Lake Michigan.
