Northern Michigan Women's Retreat // August 14-18, 2026
For the women needing a summertime getaway in the Nantucket of the Midwest. If you’re obsessed with good food, hospitality that will inspire you, and boutique experiences that will challenge you in all the best ways, this trip is for you.
Here’s a sample itinerary for this retreat:
August 14: You’re welcome to check in any time after 2pm and enjoy relaxing at our bed & breakfast, or walking the quaint town of Bellaire to visit local shops and restaurants. We’ll enjoy a welcome dinner together on our wrap around porch later tonight, and s’mores by the fire with local wines.
August 15: After breakfast this morning, we’ll head to the Leelanau Peninsula, and visit Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore today for some incredible views, and lunch at one of our favorite spots. Tonight, we’ll make our way to Suttons Bay to enjoy an evening cooking class at a local winery with a wine pairing.
August 16: We’ll enjoy breakfast altogether at the Inn, and then embark on a pontoon rental on Torch Lake. You’ll be able to relax on the boat, swim in the pristine blue of Torch, and enjoy a charcuterie lunch in one of the most beautiful places on earth. This afternoon, we’ll have time to explore the quaint town of Alden, then head back to the inn to relax. Dinner out at one of our very favorite restaurants here in Bellaire before coming back to the Inn to relax.
August 17: Breakfast at the inn will be more grab & go style this morning, because today we’re heading up to Lavender Hill Farms for a workshop and tour in Boyne City. We’ll enjoy a later lunch at one of our favorite restaurants in Northern Michigan, and then an evening sunset cruise in Charlevoix will provide a relaxing end to the perfect Northern MI day.
August 18: On our last day together, we’ll enjoy breakfast together at the Inn, and enjoy a watercolor class, taught by a local artist, and inspired by the beauty of Northern MI we’ve been able to enjoy this week together. This afternoon, we’ll have lunch and leave you plenty of time to get home.
This five day Northern MI excursion includes:
Four nights, five days accommodations at our cozy B&B
Every meal during your time with us (4 breakfasts, 4 lunches, 4 dinners)
Cooking class at a local winery
Pontoon Rental and boating day on Torch Lake
Lavender Hill Farms workshop & tour
Sunset Sailing Cruise in Charlevoix
Watercolor class with a local artist
Welcome bag with goodies from our favorite local businesses
This retreat is filled to the brim with all of the hospitality we can muster. I can’t wait to invite you into my home in beautiful Northern MI for a week to remember. You will be pampered, you will leave with new friends, and you will experience hospitality on another level.
Pricing Structure:
Single Spot (5 single rooms available): $2,875 // $250 deposit, rest isn’t due until July 1st
Shared Spot (8 spots available): $2,650 // $250 deposit, rest isn’t due until July 1st
NOTE: If you are the type of person who needs every second of a trip planned out, and you struggle to remain flexible when traveling, our trips are probably not for you. Rest assured, if something does change at the last minute (because of weather, scheduling conflicts, etc.) it’s only because a better opportunity came about, and I know it will only enhance the trip for you. As someone who understands this area well, I promise to give you my best - and ONLY my best - to leave you with memories that will last a lifetime.
