Empire Bluff Trail
Hiking area
👍👍 An absolute incredible trail that is easy enough for everyone to enjoy. Maybe 1 1/2 miles total. Great for all the family. There is two overlooks along the way and the trail ends up where you can continue on along the sands dunes if you wish. Great views of Lake Michigan and the main part of th...

Papa J's Pizzeria & Diner
Pizza restaurant
😐 The place was not all that busy, I felt ignored but that is not reasonable thinking I'd say understaffed is most likely the answer, wate staff is very nice. It took 10 min just to get a drink and menu, ok well that can happen but if not being critical service is often prompt and delightful at...

Indigo Bluffs RV Park & Resort
RV park
🫤 Great location if your wanting to visit Sleeping Bear Dunes, Lake Michigan beaches, and other surrounding attractions. This park has a really nice separate luxury RV section but the regular RV section is definitely lacking. Most sites are full dirt so if it rains, it’s a mud mess. Even without rain,...

Platte River State Forest Campground
Campground
👍👍 Visited in the winter, so I had the campground to myself. There are plenty of sites, but they are located fairly close together. You can hear/see the river from some sites.
Firepits and picnic tables at every site. Water pump and vault toilets available.

Treat Farm Trail
Hiking area
👍👍 A wonderful and lesser-known place to visit in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. The trailhead is not prominently signed and has space for only a few cars to park on the side of the road. An easy, short trail up the driveway of the old farm, by the buildings (which are being preserved by a fou...
