Sleeping Bear Resort

Looking to host a retreat in Northern Michigan? Sleeping Bear Resort is the perfect place to host your next yoga retreat, book retreat, or any other group retreat surrounded by nature! Our resort is the perfect peaceful escape, located one mile outside the Village of Lake Ann on Herendeen Lake. We are also only 15 miles west of Traverse City and 15 miles east of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, which makes planning group retreat outings a breeze! With resort amenities like private beach access, kayaks, fishing boats, a water bouncer, and more, your retreat attendees will surely have an incredible stay!

Resort Retreat Accommodations

All resort accommodations have excellent lake views, so everyone in your group can soak up all of Northern Michigan’s natural beauty during the retreat. The resort has six cozy cabins, a five Bedroom Hand Hewn Log Home, and a six Bedroom Remodeled Farm Home.

We can accommodate retreat groups of approximately 30. However, if some group members are couples or friends who don’t mind sharing, that number would increase. Eight of the bedrooms have 2 or more beds, so several people would have to share bedrooms for groups larger than 21. If everyone needs their own bedroom, we can accommodate a group size of 21 attendees.

Retreat Meeting Space

The main meeting space for your retreat will be in the Bear’s Den, which can accommodate up to 30 people sitting. This multi-purpose space comes with high-speed internet, a 50-inch Smart Roku TV, which you can use for presentations, and a large whiteboard. Additional rooms are also located at the Bear’s Den and Lodge for any other retreat activities you’d like to host.
