Our room was just what you expect from a motel style lodging: clean bed, roomy bathroom, a mini fridge. It is made sweeter by screen doors, wide open lawn speckled with daisies, whimsical landscaping, good morning coffee in the office, and mascot, Duke the retriever. We enjoyed playing corn hole and ladder ball in the afternoon and a fire by the lake in the evening. It was fun and tranquil at the same time. The weather was lovely early June and I'm sure when school is out and summer is in full swing the games and beach fun is multiplied.

I had the roasted beet blueberry salad with whipped goat cheese and the flavors blended so well, my daughter noticed I was eating it slowly and I told her I was trying to savor every bite. I ordered the mushroom campanelle pasta with chicken for my entree and it was light, extremely flavorful and just delicious. My daughter had the bolognese and that was hers as well. We ordered the special side - charred asparagus - it was the perfect amount of char with a nice lemony finish. I was very impressed overall. It was a beautiful night and most tables have a view of the river. I was hesitant to try it looking at the ratings, but I'm very thankful we did. We had a lovely evening.

So my wife and I stayed at the Vineyard Inn for the last 3 nights for our first anniversary. The…read moreInn was nice, but is capable of so much more! First off, the exterior is in need of some tree and bush trimming. They have a couple of light posts out front, both of which are completely covered with vines and one of them even has the vines growing inside of the light itself. The tree right in front that hangs over the circle drive has branches hanging so low, you have to walk all the way around it and they have a fountain in the center of the circle drive that has been re-purposed as a flower bed, but there were no flowers in it, just dirt so it looked very tacky and unmanaged. In fact there are many planters around the front of the inn that had no plants in them and were just dirt. We had a Lakeview Suite which was nice, it was clean, but as other reviewers had mentioned there are areas where you can tell corners were cut during the remodel or that they just need more attention and there isn't a handyman onsite. The tops of the tub enclosures need to be caulked, the window blind in our room was broken, the sliding screen door is hard to open and close and doesn't roll smoothly, the mini fridge with freezer needs to be defrosted to get rid of the 2" of ice buildup inside, and the shower head is in dire need of either replacement or a deep cleaning with CLR. The beds were kind of uncomfortable. I think they advertize them as being a pillow top mattress and if they are, the pillow top has been heavy worn out. The beds sounded too like that had a plastic sheet over them (you know the type you use on beds when kids can't hold it through the night) although I never pulled the fitted sheet off to check. It was nice that every room has either a patio or balcony attached with chairs and the views of the bay from the rooms are great! Many spots outside on the lawn and beach to sit and having the bonfire pits lit at night was really nice. They had bean bag toss set up in the back for guests to use as well. They have a restaurant attached too, Corky's. We were going to have dinner there Thursday night when we arrived after being on the road for that last 8 hours, but they were closed and are only open on the weekends even though their website states "Open Daily for Dinner at 5:00", so we had to go somewhere else. After that night, we read the reviews for Corky's and opted to continue going elsewhere for dinner. By the way, the plants are so overgrown in the front around Corky's sign that all you can read is "orky's". We thought it odd as well on how not busy Corky's was. They have a great looking space, right on the water, with a great outdoor bar and yet on a busy Friday and Saturday night, they had maybe 5 or 6 tables with guests, the bar was closed, and just barely had any business, and yet almost every restaurant in downtown Suttons Bay, only 2 miles away, has a wait to get in the door. So, all in all, not a bad experience, just not exactly what I thought I was getting for how much I paid a night to stay there. I think I'll watch for some more positive reviews from Yelpers though before we decide to go back.

Well lit outdoors. Map of area provided. Cons-no rugs at either door in our room & it rained throughout our stay. We opted to use bath rug by the door. Also front door didn't shut tight when we tried. First line security is questionable. There was also a ruckus at the restaurant kitty corner to inn. Might not have noticed door issue otherwise. Also room wouldn't let me engage deadbolt while in room. Lock malfunction?! Lastly, hubby Couldn't get temp down in room, however we were thankful we could open window and deck door to get comfortable. Suggestions-the one chair provided is really worn. A small desk workspace or side table. Some additional art on walls, one piece leaves place feeling sterile. Robes esp since microwave is in hall. Loved the entry table, stunning piece!! Would love to see a couple of comfortable chairs in front of fireplace downstairs. Also, you can hear everything thru the walls. Keep in mind if it's an adult getaway ;) Also no vouchers for coffee shop or wine tasting room as yelp add stated. Gym is separate business and additional $10 per person, per day.

Walking in you can see the beautifully preserved architecture and we were greeted with a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Rooms are comfortable and thoughtfully decorated, maintaining a vintage charm while providing modern amenities. Breakfast is available for purchase, with delicious homemade options that start the day off perfectly. Its proximity to wineries and scenic views makes it an ideal getaway for history enthusiasts and wine lovers alike. Highly recommend for a unique and memorable stay!

We were originally going to spend most of our time in Traverse City, so we were disappointed to be 30 minutes out from the city. However, we had such an amazing time exploring Northport, Sutton's Bay, Old Fishtown, and other small cities off of the M-22 loop that we never even ventured to Traverse City! Jane and Jack are the owners of the B&B and are so nice. They did an amazing job making us feel welcomed, but still giving us our space to enjoy one another. The house is a historic building in Northport and the décor is consistent with that. Even though it is an older home, it is well taken care of and updated to accommodate guests. There is a very cool old fireplace out back and they allow guests to sit at the fire in the evening. Jane always had a serving tray filled with ingredients for smores waiting for us. She even had bug spray for us. They also have a mini fridge filled with water and pop for guest to enjoy. Jane is a phenomenal cook and we enjoyed the breakfast she prepared both mornings. She presents it beautifully and gives you plenty. Overall, we were just so pleased with our stay and loved meeting Jane and Jack. I would highly recommend this Bed and Breakfast!
