Swimming

Resort Pools, Inland Lakes and Lake Michigan

It's hard to imagine what could be better on a warm summer's day than a dip in the cool clear waters of Lake Michigan. The Homestead offers over a mile of coastline along Sleeping Bear Bay, perfect for swimming, wading, or even paddle boarding. Stroll along our pristine beach or make a sand castle by the shore recently chosen by Money Magazine as "No. 1 of the 8 Best Beaches to Visit this Summer."  Take a trip down the waterslide at the Mountain Village pool, a dip below the cascading waterfall at the Beach Club’s pool, or a self care day with stunning views at Spa Amira’s private pool.
