Q + A

Question

WILL I NEED TO RENT A CAR?

Answer

Traverse City Airport is about 45 minutes from downtown Leland. Gerald R. Ford International Airport in Grand Rapids is about 3 hours from downtown Leland. While Leland itself is a walkable city, we recommend a rental car to explore the quaint neighboring towns in Leelanau County.

Question

ARE THERE UBERS IN LELAND?

Answer

There are not ridesharing services in Leland, however for both Thursday + Friday's events we will provide a shuttle service to and from the venue. The shuttle will depart and return to The Leland Lodge, the schedule for such will be found on your weekend itinerary provided upon arrival to your lodging.

Question

WHAT IS THE WEEKEND ATTIRE?
