The Vineyard Inn

I stayed here 4 fabulous days! I arrived a day early, no reservation, and Pam was nice enough to wait for me as I got there late. The room was great, and the location was spectacular, right on the bay! I stayed by myself and felt safe. My friends were staying at another hotel a few miles away, and as we had drinks and dinner, decided on booking a trip next year for girls weekend! By the way, the restaurant on the property is worth a try. Wonderful view of the bay and the bar has swings! We had the pizza, Caesars Salad, and artichoke dip, phenomenal!

We had the best time at The Vineyard Inn on Suttons Bay— it truly is a hidden gem! The property is so beautiful and peaceful. It is right on the water with a great beach to hang out on and has a dock for boat access. Pam was so kind and welcoming, and it’s clear she and Steve put so much love into keeping the inn so well cared for. Our room was cozy and timeless, very clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including a very nice sized tv. Dinner at their restaurant was amazing— the chef was so friendly and attentive, and the food and drinks were incredible. We especially loved the Albariño wine, cider option, the s’mores martini, pizza, gouda mac & cheese, and tres leches dessert. The whole experience felt relaxing and special, exceeded our expectations in every way. Yo

We had confirmed reservations for a 2 night stay on a Tuesday and Wednesday 9/9 and 9/10. After a drive of 6 hours, we found the Inn locked up and no one there- customers or staff! A sign was posted that said all the amenities that we were looking forward to - bistro, bar, etc. are closed Mon. Tue. And Wed.!! Unconscionable that we were not informed of these closures before our trip. We called a posted number and a man arrived, was pleasant and offered a refund if we didn’t want to stay. We finally found other arrangements and our outing was saved.

I would strongly caution anyone against staying at The Vineyard Inn at Suttons Bay. My family booked a stay directly with the owner, Pam, for $4,450. When we arrived, we were shocked to find the property full of rat droppings, including in the living areas and kitchen. The home was clearly uninhabitable and unsanitary, and we could not stay. Pam acknowledged the issue and refunded $4,000, but refused to return the remaining $450, despite us never staying in the unit. What makes this situation even more disturbing is that, during our exchange, Pam made an explicitly antisemitic remark, stating: “I knew I shouldn’t have done business with you based off of your last name” There is no excuse for this kind of hateful language or for treating guests with such disrespect—especially after failing

This place was perfect for a long weekend getaway with my girlfriend. Josh was a fantastic chef and had a lot of knowledge of wineries and cool spots in the area. I'm not joking when I say Josh looked at me and my girlfriend and immediately knew our go to drink as well. A man of experience. We usually stay in TC when we come up to this area, from now on we'll be staying here. The views from our room were to die for, it felt like we were in a dream. The pizza was delicious and the drinks were made perfectly. See you guys in the spring when you open up. Thanks for having us.
