Description
Sleeping Bear Dunes is a national lakeshore because it is the largest freshwater dune system in the world! Covering 71,199 acres, this park has miles of sandy beaches along Lake Michigan, clear inland lakes, beautiful trails both paved and unpaved, lots of kid-friendly activities, and is an INCREDIBLE place to view the Night Sky. It is 25 miles from Traverse City so you can make a trip to the northwest part of the mitten and have plenty of options for lodging and kid-friendly activities!
