Petoskey, sitting on the shores of Lake Michigan, has been a popular vacation spot for decades. Earnest Hemingway spent the first 18 summers of his life sailing and fishing on nearby Walloon Lake, and the area features prominently in several of his stories. The Little Traverse History Museum shows how the Petoskey area was a formative influence on young Hemingway. The area is also a well known winter destination, with three popular ski resorts featuring everything from dog sled rides to tubing.

The four of us had a pleasant afternoon outside sampling our cider flights. It wasn't busy so we could take our time studying the board and carefully choosing our pours. My favorite was the Apple Blueberry. It was a perfect outing for a fall day. Next time, I will bring some snacks to share.

My Husband and I were taking another couple on a Northern Michigan Tour and stopped at one of our favorite places: Kilwins in Petoskey. We shopped and had ice cream. Later I realized I had lost a necklace given to me as a gift. We backtracked the places we visited including Kilwins. We didn’t find the lost jewelry. Leaving our name and number. We headed home feeling the loss. The next day we received a call that Kilwins Manager, Scott found the necklace in the parking lot. He mailed it to our home. We received the package the next day and Scott even included some chocolate to sweeten the recover. A big thanks to Scott and Kilwins Staff. Your thoughtfulness and assistance are a big reason we always enjoy your store and showroom. We will always make it a stop when we travel north.

Located on 80 beautiful acres in Petoskey, Michigan, Maple Moon Sugarbush and Winery offers a little slice of heaven for its visitors. Maple Moon is a wonderful addition to the Petoskey area. Family owned, the maple trees and facility are open for tours and the Peterson's are delightful and welcoming. They sell their products at an on-location store, which includes their own super premium maple ice cream (which is world class) with their own 100% pure maple syrup. They have numerous grades of syrup, all made on the premises, as well as jam, salsa, home-made maple granola and other specialties. Their latest addition is nothing shy of amazing. They have become America's First and ONLY maple winery, with nine 2015 vintages available. It doesn't get any better than this. The Peterson's do it all themselves, and it is a family labor of love. It's wonderful that they have settled in Petoskey, so we can all fall in love with Maple Moon. Tour the sugary and sample delectable treats such as maple syrup, maple candy, maple ice cream, maple root beer and maple wine.
What a great find! The ladies in both the tasting area and the store were very helpful and friendly.
