We were driving to another winery in the area and saw Hickory Creek so we decided to stop and we…read morewere so glad we did! We were greeted by Adam who is the owner and he welcomed us,explained his wine offerings and even showed us the back room operation. This is one of the smaller wineries in the area but the wines we tried were fantastic. We did a tasting of 5 wines for 15.00 . We did a mixture of reds and whites and each one was delicious. They have a promotion ..if you buy 3 bottles of wine,the tasting is free. You can sit either inside or outside . Definitely a must visit when on the Michigan Wine Trail.

St. Julian Winery was my first real wine tasting experience, so I wasn't really sure what to…read moreexpect going in. The place was packed when we arrived and had a lot of energy to it. There were wine bottles everywhere, displays throughout the room, and just a lot to look at while you walked around. Our server was super nice and made the whole tasting really easy. We started with the fruit and cider flight, and that was actually a lot of fun. It was interesting trying them back to back and seeing how different each one tasted. But the one that really surprised me was the Key Lime Pie Martini. I was NOT expecting a dessert in drink form. The rum cream gave it that smooth, creamy sweetness, while the lime brought a bright, slightly tart kick that tasted just like key lime pie. The vanilla and cream made it silky and the graham cracker rim finished it off with that buttery sweetness. It honestly tasted like someone turned a slice of key lime pie into martini and somehow it worked perfectly. Every sip was sweet, creamy, tangy, and just a little refreshing. Definitely the drink I wasn't expecting to love as much as I did. For my first wine tasting experience, I'd say it was a pretty great introduction.

Inside, the decor is open and bright, with natural light pouring in through large windows. The outdoor deck offers plenty of space, making it a great spot for groups, and the umbrellas provide solid shade on sunny days. The snack spread was a nice touch....cheese, crackers, and pita chips, with generous options to choose from. Wine tasting is done standing at the bar, but you do get a discount on any bottles you purchase. The best deal is the "Build-A-Bag": buy 3 bottles and get a 4th free. My favorites were the 2019 Estate White Blend, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon, and the 2023 Simply Rosé. On top of all that, the staff were friendly and helpful throughout the visit.

We passed Mount Baldy, the "living" sand dune that moves, at Indiana Dunes National Park and made it all the way down to a good view of the Century of Progress homes before making our way back. We also got to hear all about the ship, the Emita II, which is a historic ship from the 1950s, and about how it reached its current home. It was also very cute that Captain Jan had the kids come up and take turns at the wheel on the way back. There is a snack bar on the lower level of the boat, and there are restrooms on board. Free parking is available a little walk away - walk towards the Lighthouse Museum, as the dock is behind there. Definitely a great adventure!

We sat outside overlooking the vineyard. Molly was our server. She was friendly and engaging. Lunch was a walleye sandwich with chips for hubby and the fig & prosciutto flatbread for me. The walleye had a crispy crust coating the moist and tender fish. I took a bite of hub's sandwich and it was so good. My flatbread, though, was amazing. I'm all about a good crust and this one was perfection. So crispy, yet light with all air pockets in the crust. Of course, I love anything fig and this didn't disappoint. I ate 3 squares and took the rest with me. Of course being at the vineyard, we ordered a glass of wine. My husband had the albariño and I ordered the sauvignon blanc. I didn't care for the sauvignon blanc. When the manager came by, we raved about the food but I was honest about the wine. She gave me a taste of the chardonnay and she was right. It was good. I was happy she switched my wine. The negatives are the wasps are nuisances, and there were no traps to catch them. I was dodging them the entire meal. I guess it's hazard when dining al fresco. The other annoyance was the water glasses are small, and my water was never refilled and my glass sat empty even with Molly and the manager stopping by during the meal. Since the glass is small, they should leave a bottle of water at the table or make it a point to check and recheck the water glasses. This is a nice stop for lunch on the Michigan wine trail.
