The Dune Climb Inn is proud to announce the renovation and rebrand of a classic motel, formerly Duneswood Resort, right in the heart of the National Park. Inspired by the nature surrounding it, the rooms are dressed in blues and greens and feature local art and photography, retaining that intimate motel feeling with a colorful refresh. It is the perfect home base for your outdoor adventures and escape.
Rooms house between two and six guests and have a large mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker, air conditioning and 43” TVs. Two center units and the Community Room have larger living spaces, each with their own fireplace and kitchen. In addition to all new furnishings and bedding, returning guests will notice new exterior paint, new outdoor furniture, and an additional fire pit.
Open all year, the Dune Climb Inn sits in the center of Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore, on the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail (think biking, running, skiing) and backs up to the dunes. The unique location allows guest to walk right into the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes National Lakeshore and ride or stroll the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail. It’s just a short walk to the entrance to the famed Sleeping Bear Dune Climb and the Little Glen Public Access. Lake Michigan, Glen Haven, Glen Arbor and Empire are a bike ride away.
Reservations can be made online at duneclimbinn.com. The Dune Climb Inn is located at 7194 S Dune Hwy (M-109), Empire, MI 49630
