* A fishing, hunting, snowmobiling or cross-​country ski ‘base-​camp’

* The perfect setting for your next reunion or group or church retreat

* An ideal venue for a casual lakeside wedding

* A great ‘home-​base’ for day-​trips like canoeing, antiquing, shopping, touring the area’s vineyards and breweries, discovering state parks and forests, bird watching and photographing nature, hiking area trails, or sightseeing in Traverse City or on Mackinaw Island, or climbing Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes or even taking your chances at one of the nearby casino

History

Established in 2013.

Driftwood Resort has been a popular lakefront vacation getaway for many families for over 50 years. We (Jim and Karen Krupansky) purchased the resort from Bob and Sheila Blessing in 2013. They had lovingly run and cared for the resort for over 21 years. Since taking over the resort we have purchased the adjoining property which added two additional cottages (an additional lakefront and a large 3-​bedroom, 2-​bath cottage) and 100 more feet of lakefront. These two cottages have been totally redone and are being enjoyed by our guests. We also added a recreation building we named Ace’s «Perch». The «Perch» with it’s ping-​pong, pool, and air-​hockey tables, shuffleboard, darts, several game tables and chairs, and tons of games, books, DVD’s and cards is a favorite place to hang-​out. The «Perch» also has an ADA restroom, serving counter/​sink, as well as a big screen/​WiFi to accommodate retreats, reunions and group activities.

We are excited about the future of Driftwood Resort!
