Leelanau Pines Campground in Cedar, Michigan, offers 52 full-hookup RV sites, nine cabins, and five glamping sites on the southern shore of Lake Leelanau, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet. Lakefront basic and lakefront standard categories join premium and standard back-in tiers, with a disc golf course, jumping pillow, beach, and bar. Fifty-two back-in sites run in lakefront basic, lakefront standard, premium back-in, and standard back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The lakefront tiers are the ones to request, and offering both a basic and a standard lakefront option keeps waterfront within reach at two price points. Nine cabins — including two luxury types sleeping up to eight — and five glamping sites round out the lodging. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A disc golf course, jumping pillow, sports courts, pickleball, basketball, gaga ball, corn hole, walking trails, a playground, on-site dining, and a bar fill the grounds, with the lake supporting boating, fishing, and swimming. Wine and beer tasting and a golf course are nearby. The Leelanau Peninsula is one of Michigan's most celebrated summer regions, where Lake Michigan's moderating climate produces cherry orchards and a serious wine country, with Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City close. Summer is decisively the season in northern Michigan, with fall color drawing a strong second wave. Reserve well ahead for July and August.
