Leland And Fishtown Land Their Moment In The National Spotlight

Sure, neighboring Traverse City has landed on lots of national lists for its beauty and "livability." But now little Leland has an accolade of its own: It has landed on the list of the "20 Most Beautiful Small Towns in the U.S." by Travel + Leisure magazine. 

Alongside the likes of Girdwood, Alaska and Avalon, California, Leland comes in at #10. The magazine notes that the town is "a tourism dream team composed of a working commercial fishing village and a community of people who love their summer cottages. Leland is a special place virtually untouched by time. For instance, it has no stoplights."
