Favorite Places in the Five-County Region

"My absolute favorite place is the 20 wooded acres that my husband and I call home in Leelanau County. Outside of that, we love exploring natural areas maintained by the Leelanau Conservancy, such as the Houdek Dunes Natural Area and Whaleback Natural Area. We also feel fortunate to be so close to the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore."
