The National Park Service has done a great job here. Signage is perfect, the points of interest along the trail are noted, and the surface is very bikable. Scenery along Lake Michigan is awesome and made the most of here.

4. Sleeping Bear Point Maritime Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 71 reviews
Reviewed By BellPepper68 - Michigan, United States
This museum is very informative and thorough. Do not let the size deter you because the in-depth explanations and visuals through various old boat items more than make up for it. Also very close to Lake Michigan’s shore.
5. Cherry Republic of Glen Arbor
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 284 reviews
Drive through this picture-postcard-like community and you’ll soon realize why Bob is so passionate about his hometown. Sample some of our 200 yummy cherry products in The Great Hall, enjoy wine tasting (or soda pop tasting for the kids!) in The Winery, or enjoy a craft beer, dinner, lunch, or ice cream and bakery items at our newly opened Cherry Public House! The whole campus is tied together by cheery perennial gardens that wind through the property. (Learn more about the Cherry Public House and Cherry Republic Brewing Company here.)

Over the past 25 years Cherry Republic in Leelanau County’s Glen Arbor has become somewhat of a religious journey for me. Year after year I return with my wife, family, and friends. I just visited two weekends in a row! While I fondly recall it’s humble beginnings...sharing space with the coffee roaster, today’s CR is a destination. Wine tasting, clothing and packaged food (chocolate cherry samples!), beer, ice cream, delicious meals, and an outdoor space with games and tables make this a great place to spend some time. There’s really nothing here that I wouldn’t recommend! The wine tasting is free so be sure to buy a bottle or two and leave with an ice cream cone or the old standard, the Boomchunka (cookie).
