We just returned from our 26th summer family trip to Brookhaven Cottages in The Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. While so many in the US and Europe were sweltering in extremely high heat and humidity, we were reveling in gorgeous sunny weather with mid-day highs of 75F and great sleeping temps around 60F. There is no air conditioning in the cabins nor is it necessary as the breeze comes off Glen Lake and keeps us quite cool and comfortable. We love the access to the row boat on Brooks Lake behind the cabins and used the kayaks to paddle along the shore of Big Glen and into Big and Little Fischer Lakes. We either swam off the dock or used the stand-up paddle boards to get to the swim platform. When we did venture away from Brookhaven, we spent our days hiking the trails or climbing the dunes in the Sleeping Bear Dunes Nat'l Lakeshore, or biking along the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail (paved off road path-30 miles long) through rolling hills, farmlands, sand dunes, and forested canopies. All of these activities left us super hungry for unlimited cherry products-cherry bar b que, cherry chicken salad, cherry pie, cherry pop and of course cherry ice cream. Most nights we had dinner at the picnic tables in front of Cabin 1 and watched the amazing sunsets. The campfire on the lakefront in front of the cabins is a favorite gathering place to relax after dark and enjoy marshmallows and s'mores. Brookhaven is great place for a solo trip, a couple, a family or a bigger gathering. We've had endless fun there and are already counting the days until we return in 2024.
