Inn at Black Star Farms

This was our first time visiting Black Star Farms Inn and it was a lovely experience! We were celebrating our anniversary as in the past in the Traverse City area and decided to try someplace new. The rooms, food, ambiance and personal attention were amazing. The staff friendly and helpful. The Inn and grounds are beautiful. We didn’t do any wine tastings in the winery onsite and the onsite restaurant was closed while we were there during weekdays.

If you are looking for the perfect place to stay, this is your place! David our host was fantastic! The social hour was a wonderful blend of small bites, wine, and conversation. Breakfast was chef driven yumminess. The bed was perfection in itself, some comfortable. The cons were: low pressure in the shower, and there was no coffee upstairs. Granted we are not early risers. We will be back and this time not wait 5 years.

This is a favorite of ours! Beautiful grounds, great location between Traverse city and Suttons bay, a wonderful suite we stay in that is on the first floor. Also, it's just like home from the demeanor of the Inn Keeper to access to all areas including the library and pub, with plush leather seating and decor reminiscent of a classic fox hunting lodge. Breakfasts are special and delicious. Wine tasting room next door, grapes growing alongside, view of the horse pasture and great walking trails. What more could you want??!

Great location near many great restaurants and wineries. The atmosphere was very relaxing, the rooms were very clean and cozy, there were trails to walk and explore and the chef made incredible meals for us. I would definitely urge you to go and experience this lovely inn.

A fantastic facility and location to spend overnight in the Inn! Staff are extremely friendly & helpful, the Inn is luxurious, and everything is clean and well maintained. The chef does a fantastic job providing unique & delicious breakfast as well. Highly recommend spending a weekend!

My husband and I stayed here for three night and were in the larger room above the kitchen. Everything was nice and comfortable. We had a complimentary bottle of wine, however, the label had a different couples name on it. There are chefs preparing breakfast in a commercial kitchen. This is where things were uneven. The wait time for being served was long. Every day was a different chef. The dishes weren't traditional. One day was poached eggs with short ribs. It was too rich for me to finish.

The Inn at Black Star Farms was a great choice for a place to spend some days up in the Traverse City area! The staff were incredibly helpful and personable, the rooms are great, and the views are worth everything. The best part about the Inn really is the staff though. They are friendly and professional and greeted us by name making you feel more like you're staying with friends than just being another customer to come through their doors. We will definitely be staying here again.

Amazing experience and already recommending to others. Had to book at the last minute but were very lucky to have stayed here.

This property was fantastic. The Inn staff were welcoming and helpful! Our stay came with a wine tasting, and the sommelier was knowledgeable and witty. Breakfast was delicious, and the evening social hour was lots of fun. This place is very close to Sutton bay, and not too far from Traverse City. Coming from San Diego this place exceeded all of my expectations! The photos online don't do this place justice!

Best. Service. Ever. My brother and I took our parents here as a gift for their 50th anniversary. We knew the rooms were lovely and the setting was bucolic. But what we didn't know is that the innkeepers and the proprietor would carefully and unobtrusively look after our every whim. And with such informal goodwill that we truly felt like their number one goal was to make sure we had a wonderful time. Which we did!

Sheer perfection! From start to finish no detail was overlooked. I arrived at 6:00pm, was given a tour, and was swept off to a wine tasting happy hour. Grace was my server and a delightful hostess. She interacted with all the guests and encouraged us to interact with each other, if we were so inclined; which was particularly special for me traveling alone. The wines were delightful and I enjoyed my tasting and the artfully displayed snacks: a beautiful cheese platter, homemade jams, and specially crafted arancini rice balls. I slept comfortably in my room, soft pillows and lovely decor. The room was spotless. I enjoyed the comfy robes. Breakfast-AMAZING!! John is a culinary master and the food was both delicious and lovely! I am a serious foodie and have not had such a delightful breakfast. Absolutely inspiring! The grounds were lovely, I enjoyed petting the horses and the breathtaking views. I can't wait to return in the spring or summer!

Just got back from a over night stay here. My first experience at a bed and breakfast and it was 5 stars all the way. Loved our room. Loved the happy hour with hors d'oeuvres. Loved the whole place. I didnt wany it to end. We will be back for sure. Thank you for a great time for me and my hubby.

From check in to check out, this was an incredible experience. Grace, the inn keeper was so friendly and personable. The property is stunning - great views, cute restaurant, beautiful tasting room. The rooms are nice, clean and cozy. Everything is well maintained and I would highly recommend!!

If you want to come someplace to be pampered and truly feel special - this is the place!! The rooms are wonderful. The staff is great and the location is amazing. The wine tasting adds to the whole place. The cafe is delicious. Whether you are going for the night, the wine tasting or just to visit....you won't be disappointed!!
