The picturesque coastal town of Leland is located
between Lake Michigan and Lake Leelanau on Leelanau Peninsula.
A block from Main Street is Fishtown, a quaint waterfront historic district.
About 100 years ago, the old wood buildings on the docks were
fishing shanties and net drying sheds.
Today the buildings are boutiques and art galleries.
The strange boat across the waterway is the Janice Sue, a gill net fish tug.
Restaurant overlooks the falls.
Leeland Champion Cottonwood tree grew 100 ft. tall.
The town planted the tree in 1901 and was removed in 2011.
Sixty cloned buds were created from this tree.
