Sleeping Bear Chalet - Birch, MI Northern Michigan's Perfect Base Camp

YOUR PERFECT NORTHERN MICHIGAN BASECAMP AWAITS

Nestled among towering trees in Cedar, MI, Sleeping Bear Chalet is where your Northern Michigan adventure story begins. This charming alpine-inspired retreat combines the tranquility of a private woodland setting with unbeatable access to the region's most beloved destinations.

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
Just minutes from everything: 6 minutes to Good Harbor Bay's pristine sandy beaches, 17 minutes to the charming village of Glen Arbor, 17 minutes to world-famous Sleeping Bear Dunes, 2 minutes to Sugarloaf Golf Course (The Old Course), and 31 minutes to Traverse City's wine country and dining.

THE EXPERIENCE
Wake up to birdsong and morning coffee on your private deck. Spend your day building sandcastles with the kids, conquering the legendary dunes, perfecting your golf swing, or discovering hidden gems in quaint lakeside towns. As evening arrives, gather around the outdoor picnic table for dinner beneath a canopy of stars.

WHAT MAKES US SPECIAL
Prime location without the crowds - enjoy easy access while returning to peaceful seclusion. Family-friendly comfort with space for everyone to relax and recharge. Four-season getaway featuring summer beaches, fall colors, winter coziness, and spring awakening. Tree-filled lot offering natural privacy and that authentic "up north" feeling. Authentic Northern Michigan charm - this isn't a luxury resort, but a genuine woodland retreat.

YOUR DAYS MIGHT LOOK LIKE THIS
Morning: Coffee on the deck watching wildlife, then a quick drive to Sugarloaf for an early tee time. Afternoon: Beach time at Good Harbor Bay or exploring Glen Arbor's shops and cafes. Evening: Stargazing from your private deck or dining in Traverse City.

PERFECT FOR
Family reunions and multi-generational trips, golf getaways with easy course access, beach lovers seeking Lake Michigan's beauty, nature enthusiasts and hiking groups, couples' retreats in any season, and friends celebrating life's moments.

THE DETAILS THAT MATTER
This authentic Northern Michigan home offers genuine charm over flashy amenities. You'll find comfortable spaces, a well-equipped kitchen, and everything needed for your basecamp experience. The real luxury here is location and the memories you'll create.
