E Wood How Ln, Northport, Home For Sale

At the end of a private road near the lighthouse and the Leelanau State Park, and within walking distance to the beaches along Lake Michigans Grand Traverse Bay is the historic Wood How Lodge. This beautiful residence was inspired by the architectural style known as National Park Rustic, which emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in response to the growing popularity of national parks and the desire to create structures that blended seamlessly with their natural environments. In 1928, the then Governor of Michigan, offered the lodge to President Hoover as a summer White House. Wood How Lodge blends historic charm with modern comforts, showcasing a design rich in native woods and stone. Its authentic character is preserved, yet at the same time, the lodge has been thoughtfully updated with a modern kitchen and baths, offering contemporary conveniences without compromising its timeless appeal. Inside the space is grand in scale with a soaring ceiling, massive fireplaces and an open interior.
