Fountain Point includes smaller private residences and a large resort called Fountain Point Resort. The resort, one of the oldest recreational hotel complexes of its type in the state, encompasses 54 acres (22 ha) of land, including a half-mile (0.8 km) of lakefront and the fountain, and is presently owned by Susan Jay Nichols; the property has been in her family for three generations. Located near the quiet community of Lake Leelanau, it is open to the public, reservations only, Memorial Day through Labor Day, and features swimming, boating, tennis and numerous other indoor and outdoor activities.
In 1975, Fountain Point Resort was listed on the State of Michigan historic registry, and in 2003 it was placed on the National Register of Historic Places.
