Our campus has spaces that make it ideal for family reunions, weddings, sports groups and other organizations. We can rent facilities from a conference room, dining hall, dorms, cabins and even our beach. Each summer we host weddings, university teams and high school clubs in our cabins and dorms. With the endless activities, quality food service and comfortable facilities, The Leelanau School makes a great location for many events and organizations. Plan your next event at The Leelanau School – we have so much to offer!
Situated on the Leelanau Peninsula in Northwestern Michigan, the Leelanau School sits on 42 acres of a beautiful landscape of woods and Lake Michigan beach with the Crystal River running through the middle. A truly idyllic setting snuggled up against what Good Morning America called the “Most Beautiful Place in America”.
Your ideal wedding may be large or small. The ceremony may be simple or elegant. It’s up to you at Leelanau. We’d love to show you all the possibilities for your special day.

You’ll see plenty of heavenly objects in bright, brilliant detail, and learn from Norm Wheeler, our local authority and guide.
Visitors may park in any Leelanau School lot and walk down the scenic boardwalk, across the Crystal River, to the Lanphier Observatory or adventurous types may walk in from the beach, as the Lanphier Observatory is easily visible to passersby, being tucked just between the shore and the trees.
The Leelanau School ignites a passion for learning in a boarding school where students thrive by engaging academically and by celebrating everyone’s unique learning styles in a culture of acceptance, leading to successful and meaningful lives in college and beyond.
