Leland Lodge is a historic lodge at the Leland Golf Club. Here is your dinner destination. You'll want to freshen up and change into some nicer clothes before dinner. It's not super fancy but tee-shirts and swim trunks would be out of place.

This lighthouse defines to point where Lake Michigan and Grand Traverse Bay meet. At times it can be a little chilly here so bring a sweatshirt. You can go to the top of the lighthouse and explore the surrounding grounds. During the summer the lighthouse shows movies on certain evenings in case you want to sneak back one evening. Its an excellent place to see the northern lights.

Houdek Dunes is a great hike for the whole family. It is a little easy to miss off N Manitou Trail but that means there isn't much traffic on the trail. Houdek Dunes’ signature is its stands of bright, healthy white birches – many over a century old. Their advanced age is highly unusual for this transition species. Woodland pockets created by dips in the dunes shelter the birches from the wind and allow them to thrive.
