Imagine stealing away, just the two of you, for a day of golf, dinner at a fine Italian restaurant and a night in a waterfront condo overlooking Sleeping Bear Bay. Or how about just you, your fly rod and a two-day stint of schooling under the skilled eye of an Orvis guide? Or how about a big weekend for four in a three-story waterfront condo stocked with gourmet treats, where the only thing on the agenda is relaxing visits to wineries, farm markets, art galleries and the beach?

Now imagine you can have it all for free.

You can—if you sign up to enter the sweetest giveaway of the summer, The Homestead Resort’s Vacation Sweepstakes. Every week until August 29, the gorgeous waterfront resort on Leelanau Peninsula is giving away free nights and weekends to winning entrants. Entering is free at thehomesteadresort.com.

The Homestead is located on 350 acres of land just outside Glen Arbor and features nearly a mile of frontage on Lake Michigan’s Sleeping Bear Bay, several more on the Crystal River, as well as on-site golf, fishing, hiking, shopping and restaurants. To its west are the Sleeping Bear Dunes and the South and North Manitou Islands. More information on The Homestead Resort: 231-334-5100.
