Things To Do

Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore

Takes more than a weekend to really take it all in! Check out Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive, a 7+ mile drive through forest and dunes, with multiple stops on the guide. Don't miss our favorite - stop #9. The Dune Climb - Sleeping Bear Dunes (6748 S Dune Highway) is a good place to start if you haven't hiked a dune before.

Trails!

Some of our favorites include Empire Bluffs, Pyramid Point and Treat Farm

Historic Fishtown

Glen Arbor Wines

Stop by Glen Arbor Wines to taste local wines, play bocce and other yard games, and enjoy lively music. Glen Arbor Wines is also Keef's childhood home, where he helped his mom found Glen Arbor Wines when he was just 19.

Art's Tavern

Iconic bar food with small town charm ; cash only.

Cherry Republic | Glen Arbor

For a meal or a treat, this is a great spot - Kaarin worked a number of summers in the winery, great hall and in the restaurant.

Traverse City

Fun city with shops, restaurants, beach volleyball, boats and more! Traffic can be heavy...

Keefer's Favorite

"Best food in the area" - dine in or carry out

the Blue House

Want to see a work in progress - a true labor of love? Dive by Kaarin and Keefer's new (very old) house! Pull in and look around but be ready to be put work.
