My FAVORITE restaurant in Leelanau county. It's cozy, the food is consistently delicious, and it's only 2 miles from Red Gate Farm. Reservations required, so book early to guarantee your chance to eat here. This is my go-to restaurant when I host visitors.

French food, close to Red Gate Farm, cozy and yummy. This is definitely a special occasion restaurant, though they do have a patio out back if you just want wine or dessert. Book early to make sure you get in to sample Chef Guillaume's wonderful cooking!

Incredible food with a view of Lake Michigan. Chef Randy is a genius in the kitchen and we've loved every meal we've had at Blu. This is a busy, special occasion restaurant so reservations required. Don't miss your chance to dine at Blu if you can, it is an experience!!

A bit of a drive from Red Gate Farm, but it's got a water view with a reasonably priced menu. It's a nice drive to get there, and there's winery next door.

Local burger joint that's a local and tourist favorite. CASH ONLY, so don't come empty handed. This is a Glen Arbor landmark and must visit. Art's has a great breakfast too.

Such a great beach town, right on the bay. There's an art fair the first weekend in August that I never miss. They also have an event called Wine on the Water that is fun to attend. Murdick's fudge, ice cream, restaurants, shopping - a must see little town about 30 minutes from Red Gate Farm. Farmers market on Saturdays.

A must see if you're in the area. You can go to the first "top" for an incredible view of the surrounding area, or spend hours hiking up and down dunes until you get to Lake Michigan. If you opt for the long hike, bring lots of water and only do so if you are able to handle difficult hiking. It's hot, sandy and lots of up and down dunes to navigate, but a great hike for those who are in shape enough to go to Lake Michigan. (I'm not anymore, LOL)
