About Leland & Lake Leelanau

Leland’s Fishtown is an historic fishing village. From the weathered shanties, racks of drying fishing nets, smokehouses and fish tugs on the Leland River, to the fine shops, restaurants and art galleries in the Village, Leland will enthrall you. Take the Mail Boat to the Manitou Islands, pick up whitefish fillets for dinner, or charter a boat for a day in the scenic Manitou Passage catching lake trout. It’s a spectacular part of Lake Michigan with islands, bays, points, high bluffs and lighthouses. Enjoy it with a fighting lake trout or King salmon on your line.

The nearby village of Lake Leelanau is along "The Narrows" between North & South Lake Leelanau. It features a thriving culinary scene with distillery, wineries, and restaurants.
