Barns, Buildings,and a By-Gone Era - Historic Sleeping Bear Dunes NLS

Fortunately for us, in 1970 Congress authorized the preservation of this beautiful stretch of land in and around Lake Michigan now known as Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.  Included in this 71,199 acre park is an extensive rural historic farm district (Port Oneida).  But historic structures aren’t limited to the Port Oneida District - there are plenty of other hidden gems (some in plain sight) waiting for you to discover in other areas of the park as well

These back-country roads make for a great Sunday drive.  So, get comfortable – we’re going for a ride.
