The Sylvan Inn

The Sylvan Inn Nestled in the tall pines at the edge of Glen Arbor and the Leelanau Peninsula this charming, historic, turn of the century Inn awaits you, The Sylvan Inn

Established in 1885, our Registered Landmark Inn began as an ideal respite for lumbermen and mariners alike. The Inn was a place where they could enjoy a hot meal, interesting conversation and a good night's sleep. Today, over 100 years later, you can enjoy the same gracious country charm. Minutes away your discoveries are endless--explore the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes that overlook the breath-taki

ng Manitou Islands, enjoy a canoe trip on the Crystal River or visit one of our nearby excellent restaurants. Just a pleasant stroll takes you to unique shops or to one of the finest beaches in Michigan.

Historic news: ⁠

With the support of over a thousand donors and a generous land gift from the current owner, the Leelanau Conservancy has raised $8 million to protect and restore Sugar Loaf.⁠

285 acres will be permanently preserved and, beginning in spring 2026, transformed into a public natural area for generations to come.⁠

Thank you for making this possible! The future of Sugar Loaf begins now.⁠
