Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Melissa
I'm a proud Glen Lake School graduate who grew up in Empire and later graduated from Hope College. After a fulfilling career in the medical device industry, I'm now retired and split my time between Portage and Empire.
With my extended family still rooted here, Empire remains the place where I recharge and feel grounded. My deep connection to the area makes me a great local resource—please don't hesitate to reach out with questions or for recommendations. I'm always happy to help make your vacation unforgettable.
I love walking the beach, exploring local restaurants, and visiting the many wineries throughout Leelanau County. We’re a family of four, with two college-age sons who enjoy golfing and boating on Glen Lake.
