Maple Moon Sugarbush & Winery

America's first maple winery, and a working sugarbush. Fermented maple wine, maple cider and syrup, free production tours, and wineshoeing excursions once there is snow on the ground. About as Northern Michigan as a tasting stop gets.

Worth pairing with

Bay View, 3.2 miles straight line. A National Historic Landmark Chautauqua community of Victorian cottages above the bay, right next door to Petoskey. Drive it slowly or walk it.
Petoskey State Park, 3.2 miles straight line. The classic Petoskey stone beach on Little Traverse Bay, with a dune trail behind it. Best hunting is right at the waterline after a blow.
Little Traverse Wheelway, 3.6 miles straight line. A paved shoreline trail running the bay between Charlevoix, Petoskey and Harbor Springs. The Petoskey to Bay View stretch is the one to walk if you only have an hour.

Distances are straight line from the map coordinates, not drive distance. Build the actual route on the planner, which uses real roads.

Directions

Built by Chris Izworski, a Michigan wine-country visitor and trip-tool builder. We return to Michigan wine country often; our aim is a wine day with unhurried stops, a sensible drive, and room to explore. Winery information comes from the published source records, not from a claim that we personally visited or tasted at every stop. More tools are at the Tools hub.
