Leland occupies a narrow strip of land between two distinct water bodies, serving as a maritime gateway on the Leelanau Peninsula. This 2011 survey illustrates the settlement's reliance on both Lake Michigan and the northern tip of Lake Leelanau, which are separated by a small channel near Carp River Point. The community's character as a working harbor and transit hub is evident through the inclusion of the Manitou Island Ferry and the Manitou Mail Boat Deck, essential links for the offshore islands. Local landmarks such as the Leland Yacht Harbor and the Leland Post Office anchor the town center, while the Leland Catholic Cemetery provides a point of interest for those researching local family histories. The residential layout is represented by several streets including S Lake ST and Oxford DR, showing the modern footprint of this coastal village.
