Top Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore Hotel Reviews

The Sylvan Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The innkeeper, Beck, is awesome. Right from the reservation to the departure, she was very friendly and accommodating. The breakfasts served were always hot, fresh and tasty. Our room was cozy and comfortable. The folks we ate with at the community table were very interesting and friendly. We definitely will come back."

Leland Lodge

8/10 Good

"The Leland Lodge is a step back to a quieter time. Beautiful grounds abutting a private golf course Make for quiet nights and peaceful views. The property is impeccably maintained-very clean. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Leland is a picturesque town with good restaurants and access to loads of outdoor activities. There is a sandy beach on Lake Lelanau just a short walk from the lodge. I would definitely return for a longer stay in the future. My only complaint is I was surprised to find there was not an elevator as most rooms were on the second floor-unfortunate for this day and age."
