September in Northern Michigan looks a little something like this… 🍎🍷
Pick apples right off the tree at Rennie Orchards. Stop at Gallagher's Farm Market for fresh cider and one of their pumpkin donuts. Or make the drive north to Friske Farm Market for an afternoon at the farm.
Then there's wine country. September is harvest season, and it's a great excuse to spend an afternoon on Old Mission or Leelanau Peninsula. A few of our favorites? Mari Vineyards, Chateau Chantal Winery, and Rove Winery at the Gallagher Estate —where you'll find one of the best views around from the highest point on the Leelanau Peninsula.
And if you love finding something locally made, September has plenty of that too. Browse the Elk Rapids Arts & Crafts Show, spend a weekend at the Downtown Traverse City Art Fair, or head north for Leelanau UnCaged in Northport on September 26 for art, food, and live music throughout downtown.
Pick a weekend. Stay a couple of nights. There's plenty to fill them.
And when you're ready to call it a day, come back to Brio Beach Inn and relax by the bay.
