Inn at Black Star Farms

I booked out room to stay 2 nights as my finace' and I were getting married. We had the whole place to ourselves since it was a slow time of year. The staff was so helpful and flexible. We were able to coordinate via email and they left a key for us, a cheese plate in the fridge downstairs as well as a selection of wines and two complimentary bottles. The room was perfect and even had a personalized letter to us waiting on the bed. In the morning there was coffee and tea waiting outside the room and when we went down to breakfast we were greeted by their incredible chef who made the best breakfast for us, truly gourmet. I would have been happy at Waffle House but this made me feel pretty darn classy. We left for the day and when we came back we had the same treatment, cheeseplate and wine left for us as well as cheesecake. Checkout was a breeze too. Class Act establishment all the way. Military friendly (we are both active duty Army and I was on R&R from Afghanistan). We also did a wine tasting with my in-laws and it was great. STAY HERE, STAY HERE, STAY HERE! We WILL be return customers.

Fantastic weekend, accomodations were spectacular, and the staff was exceptional.

Spend the weekend with my wife and another couple. The pictures do not do the actual facility justice. Breakfast the first morning was a pleasure but dinner that night was a pure joy; the experience was wonderful. I most certainly will be returning. The wine tasting was a fun experience with their staff.

We stayed at The Inn for two nights at the end of December. It was so peaceful to visit the winery in the stillness of the non-peak season. Make sure you attend the appetizer and wine hour in the early evening, as it's a great way to indulge in BSF wines and engage in conversation with fellow guests. The breakfast is creative and delicious, and the chef is happy to accommodate any food intolerances. We will definitely stay again!

This place was well worth the price. Even on a snowy Sunday we had a great time. We will be back.

We enjoyed our romantic weekend getaway at Black Star Farms so much we're already planning a trip back in the summer! The staff was friendly, the grounds are gorgeous, the room was comfortable. We enjoyed in room massages and delicious wine and food while there. Couldn't have asked for a better winter weekend getaway!

Black Star Farms is a wonderful B&B to spend relaxing days and nights at. The inn is beautiful, the staff are warm and helpful, and the breakfast is to die for! We opted to dine with them for dinner on our 2nd evening there. It by far was one of the best dinners we have had. Black Star has and always will be a favorite get away place for us.

My fiance and I spent a "long weekend" at this bed and breakfast in December recently when it was 50 degrees and raining the entire time. The last time we went to Northern Michigan in December we went to ski....Go figure......With no hesitation it was 5 star all the way!

our stay at Black Star Farms far exceeded any of our expectations! We absolutely loved it and cannot wait to return. We were blown away by the incredible service as soon as you walk in.. and it didn't even stop. We were very impressed with the Inn and all it had to offer. We were pleasantly surprised to receive an up-grade to a larger room and we were thrilled with the view, the fireplace, and the amenities. The spa/sauna/shower room was just what we needed after a stressful week and we loved that it was available throughout out entire stay! We thoroughly enjoyed the cocktail hour, where the hostess was there chatting and offering local recommendations. Lastly, the breakfast was outstanding. We raved about the presentation and flavor.. it was truly one of a kind. We could not have asked for anything more We cannot wait to return and cannot thank the staff enough for such an incredible weekend at the Black Star.

Despite the gloom of cold rain, the fireplace in Caster and Pollux was fantastic! We spent our mini-moon after our wedding last year at Black Star Farms in 2010 so it seemed fitting to return for our 1 year anniversary. While the room we had last year (Diadem) was booked, C & P was perfect...quiet, romantic, and cozy. Once again, the breakfasts were divine and fueled us for a day of exploring wine country on the Leelanau and Old Mission Peninsulas. After celebrating at the Cook's House for our anniversary dinner, we were able to enjoy our bottle of wine provided by the inn and snuggle in front of the fireplace. We were sad to leave on Sunday but look forward to returning for many anniversaries to come!

We try to get up to Blackstar every year. The atmosphere is so warm and relaxing, and the staff does a great job keeping the Inn clean and cozy.

have been here wine tasting before bueatiful place kindest people ever . very down to earth food awsome everything raised and grown on farm.top notch chefs.best wine and spirits on bay a must stay booked honeymoon.AWSOME

We've stayed at Black Star Farms nearly every year since they opened the Inn. Our favorite room is Diadem, but we've stayed in most of them and all are just wonderful. The breakfasts are a work of art, and those warm cookies hit the spot upon returning from an afternoon of wine tasting. Jill and Kellie are a pleasure, as are the chefs and Don, the managing partner. We've taken several couples with us to stay at BSF over the years, and all have had the same terrific feedback after our trips. We recommend BSF regularly to others. It's a very special place.

This was our first time at a B&B and we really weren't sure what to expect. Our visit was at the beginning of the week and off season. Things were quiet but being the end of October we expected that. Would love to visit again another time maybe early or late summer when the farm has more to see. We very much enoyed the winemakers' contribution of port to the lounge.

Our first stay here, for our 19th wedding anniversary, and we were treated like royalty! Cozy room, lounge for hors d'oeuvres and wine, fresh coffee outside our door in the morning. We are definitely coming back!

Black Star Farm Inn is truly an outstanding experience. From the moment you walk in the front door and are greeted by name, to the evening appetizer and wine reception, comfortable, clean rooms, and an awesome breakfast you feel that everyone is there to make your experience the best.

My husband & I found Black Star Farms years ago while doing our wine tour in Traverse City. We now celebrate our anniversary there either in october or November. We love it. This was our 4th year staying at the Inn. The Inn is so attractive, clean and comfortable! The food is spectacular and the wine is fabolous. The entire staff is so enjoyable, friendly and down to earth. We truly hate leaving when our weekend is over and we immediately look forward to returning.

Our room was very comfortable, nice to have 2 chairs! The eveing host was friendly and gave us a great suggestion for a local restaurant. The evening snacks and wine were delicious. We were expecting an outstanding breakfast however, the winter squash entree was rather bland (bealutiful presention though).

The room was very comfortable.The service and friendliness of the staff was above average.Along with the two breakfats we also had dinner there on the Saturday night and really enjoyed the meal.We will come again soon.

The best Traverse area in Michigan has to offer is Black Star Farms. There is no better place to stay than here. Service, food, rooms, and everything else I can't even think of right now is no better than here. They new our names as we arrived, the book on service needs to be rewritten by them. Don't hesitate to ask about anything. If they can provide it they will and better than what you thought. If they can't they'll provide more education than you need to make an easy decision that once gains provides the best experience you can have in the area. The walk around the property as the sun was setting was the second most relaxing part of our stay. The most relaxing was the stay in our room. I almost bought the sheets and am regretting that I didn't. Cheers to the chef in the morning. The closeness to all things Traverse is a huge plus.

Rooms are well appointed and very comfortable. Happy hour is a nice extra. Breakfast entrees are exceptional and presentation is lovely. This was our second visit; the inn is pricey but worth the occasional splurge.

We stayed one night as an overnight in between two other stops. All part of a planned vacation. Our experience at the Black Star Inn was the best. In hind sight we would have spent more time there and less in another spot. I will plan a trip back to Black Star Farms and I will spend more than one night.

This is the second out of three inns that my husband and I stayed at during our Michigan vacation. This inn was so fabulous that I couldn't help but be disappointed in the other two. For as fancy as the destination was, we felt extremely comfortable—almost like it was a second home. We would love to go back one day, and I wouldn't recommend any other inn in the Traverse City area over this one. Though pricey, I don't regret a single penny spent.

we enjoyed a picnic and the romance pkg. breakfast was very good.

What a wonderful time we had. The Inn was Outstanding as were it's staff and food. Many great wineries in the area. Wonderful weather while the colors were at their peak.

Celebrated our 15th anniversary with a trip to the Leelanau Peninsula wineries and Black Star Farms. The Inn is wonderful and the staff warm and inviting. Stayed in the Diadem room and didn't want to leave! However, the scrumptious breakfasts, nightly wine reception and dinner in the Arcturos Room drew us out. Also arranged for an in-room massage by the fire...simply decadent! Pricy but worth it for a special occasion.

Beautiful setting, Outstanding rooms, Great location, Reception hour was great, and the company was terrific.

Stayed 1 night, had a great time. Beautiful place. Lots of great wine....Wish we could stay 2. Will definitely go back.

What a fabulous place to celebrate our 10th anniversary! It far exceeded our expectations

I have been to many B & B's and the Black star is one of best I've stayed in. The room was beautiful with a wonder jet tub in the large bath. The food was well presented and very very good and the staff did all they could to make our stay enjoyable.

Top notch as always,the Chef's produce the most tasteful bruch I've ever expierenced. Rodger/Pat

When you arrive you are greeted by a lady (Jacqueline on this visit) who checks you in and gives you a tour of the Inn. She was very friendly and very knowledgeable about the Inn, the grounds, the winery and the local area. Being a Bed and Breakfast, breakfast is included. I've stayed at a lot of B&B's, this breakfast is spectacular. They include a private wine tasting (with appetizers) everyday for Inn guests. If you wanted to escape from your world and come to quiet and pretty, this is the place. They have a winery and cheese making building on site, a little cafe for a light meal, beautiful grounds and wonderful/friendly staff. On the other hand, there are a lot of fun things in the area as well. We can't say enough good (obviously) about the Black Star Farms!

Our stay was a very good experience! The accomodations were good, clean and well kept. The breakfasts were unique and always delivered warm and soon after our arrival at our table. The fact that there was an abundant amount of wine available for guest made our anniversary stay there quite enjoyable as well! Diadem was a special place! We did not want to leave.

I have to come back to the Inn at least once a year. It feels like my own personal retreat.

This was our second stay. It won't be our last. This is admittedly a bit of a splurge for us, but we love the wine, love the setting, love the rooms.

Everything was wonderful, from the beautiful room, to hospitality hour, to the friendly staff. The food was delicious, but we wish they could have accommodated our dietary restrictions a little better (we're pescetarians). We were not notified that there was meat in seafood paella, so I had to reorder my dinner entree, which was not properly made in time (although they didn't charge me for dinner and gave me the proper entree to go - that was nice). The beef tenderloin and ham in the breakfast entrees were simply omitted, nothing was substituted in their place. I kind of expected something comparable to other diners, not something less. However, we would go back for the service, friendly staff and beautiful location.

This was our second time at Black Star Farms. We plan to return next year.

We stayed in the Lyra bedroom--for the price and the associated amentities at the Inn, this room was quite unsatisfactory--too small, and a double bed. Of course we knew it was a double, but in all the many B&Bs we have visited, we have never had smaller than a queen and never this small a room. Otherwise the stay was great-most enjoyable breakfast and a friendly, helpful and knowledgable hostess at the evening wine hour

The Inn has very friendly staff who create a cheerful environment. We liked the relaxed and open atmosphere and found it perfect for a lake vacation. The decor in the rooms and common are completely out of date. Black carpeting was used throughout our room, even in the bathroom. There also is no bag porter so you have to lug your bags upstairs - there isn't an elevator. Due to the outdated style and limited activities on the property, we believe the cost of the rooms was too high. There are so many options in the $400 range around the country, we most likely will not return, unless the Inn gets updated. However, if we need to return to the area this Inn is probably the best property.

Everything about the Inn was what as expected due to their website. The staff at the Inn and wine tasting area were very helpful. We enjoyed the wine tasting and the discounts provided due to our stay. The equestrian facility was an added bonus as we are raised horses for 20 years. Stable staff very friendly. It's been some time since I have stay and tasted MI wine. I am pleasantly surprised how good they are. I would stay again. Too bad the afternoon wine and munchies are served so late, makes getting to dinner somewhere difficult due to the fact that the Inn is located at least 20 - 30mins from Traverse City.

They provide a complimentary bottle of wine on check-in, excellent chocolates on your bed, a ceiling fan and jacuzzi tube, lots of little things that add to the overall excellent accomadations.

Lovely large room with all wished for amenities; setting is beautiful; food is excellent; and most of all, people are really nice! Not inexpensive, but worth it. A perfect base for exploring MI wineries and/or Sleeping Bear Dunes Lakeshore.

We arrived to the Inn at Black Star Farms and we were immediately met by friendly and helpful staff. We loved the amazing breakfast each morning and the very relaxed, friendly atmosphere of all who work there. The room was warm and fresh. The grounds were lovely. The proprietor was on hand each morning for a breakfast "chat." Lovely touch. We would return.

Very nice room although the walls are quite thin. The service and dining were excellent.

Inn closer to main road than expected but otherwise exceeded my expectations. Best part was the great service. Very unobtrusive and made us feel like we owned the place. Great fun to walk around their grounds including farm animals, horses, tasting room.

thoroughly enjoyed - the Inn is beautiful, the food marvelous, the views awesome!

We stayed two nights at Blackstar Farms in Suttons Bay, Michigan, in the Mira room (suite).

We were very pleased with the facility as a whole. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The dining, the wines and cocktail hour treats were all outstanding. The farm and stables added to the very relaxing atmosphere.

My wife and I have made the BlackStar an annual spot for our anniversary every year for the last 10 years in a row. We have never been disappointed with the ambiance and the royal treatment we get from Jill and Street and the rest of the staff every year. It has been so great that we have increased our stay to a full week for the last few years and it is still not enough. My brother and I are songwriters and have had a many inspiring moments there and our music has been greatly motivated by our visits there. We get treated like family and we consider this our true vacation home. There is not one room at the inn that will disappoint as we have had stays in most of them. And the food has always been great from our former friend Cory to now the infamous Street, never a bad meal has come forth on over 10 years. No one can pick a better place to make a vacation stay than the BlackStar. And to add, Suttons Bay is also such a nice town and as laid back as any small town in any other part of the country. There is no way you can have a bad experience in this great place. And I did not even mention the winery…….

This is a lovely property in Michigan wine country. The room, breakfast, wine, and farm aspect of the prpoerty was great! Also the surrounding towns were fun to explore with great views of water and vineyards.

We included a stay at Black Star Farms as part of a two day winery tour and it was everything other guests had said it would be. Relaxing and a great breakfast. Don't miss the tasting as part of the package.

Relaxing and graceful. We loved everythign about it- from the lovely landscaping to the wine tasting and evening appetizers.

Delightful Inn with very warm and friendly staff. Food was fabulous. Very relaxing.

We love spending time here! It allows us to rest and rejuvenate in a luxurious manner!

Though there was a bit of an issue with the air conditioning in our room, they more than made up for it by upgrading us to a larger room and taking a significant discount off the nights we stayed in the room with the defective air. The grounds were gorgeous and the gourmet food was delicious. I highly recommend staying here if you are considering it :)

Our second visit. This time for our 45th wedding anniversary. Our children ordered special wine and 'treats' for our arrival and all was in place in spite of our earlier than expected arrival. Friendly and helpful staff. Food excellent - and chefs were always available to answer questions about preparation. Host greeted all guests at breakfast each morning. Evening social hour was a great mixer to meet other guests. Grounds and winery were spotless and fun to visit and walk. We will return again.

Jill, the innkeeper is one of the kindest, sweetest people you could meet. Very resourceful and creative. Jonathan, the chef, was arrogant and we were disappointed with our breakfasts. Our catered event was outstanding, everyone raved. Jonathan was the only person who was not friendly and caring. Everyone was so wonderful, asking if everything was OK. Chef Jonathan never bothered. We still love the place. I guess when you are capable of creating fine cuisine, your personality might be compromised.

Our stay at Black Star Farms was amazing! The inn was clean & the staff was very helpful; they made us feel very welcome! The wine on tap was great! We will definately be back!

My new husband and I stayed here after a hectic wedding in Petoskey. It was a quiet, peaceful and amazing getaway to spend 3 nights. We were so relaxed after we left - I couldn't remember the last time I've felt that way. We had the romance package and got the massages which were amazing. The food was wonderful, breakfast was always filling. Would definitely come here again!

Beautiful setting and the best of Michigan wines but the rooms and the service are disappointing.

Our stay at Blackstar was wonderful. We arrived at the resort after 9:00 pm and were glad our room key was waiting along with a picnic basket dinner prepared by the chef for us. We stayed in the Castor and Pollux Room, one of only 7 in the resort. The mood lighting is well designed offering a variety of options combined with a fireplace made for a very romantic dinner. The room was spacious with a comfy bed you will not want to get out of. The food is very rich with a French flair but a pleasant surprise to the palate. The food is grown on site with a menu that changes with the seasons. As a Cabernet fan, I was blown away at how good the House Red wine was that Blackstar produces. It is the best relatively inexpensive red wine I have ever drank. In addition, the 2010 Arturos Pinot Gris is an out of this world white. On our way out of town we were fortunate enough to get a personal wine tasting from one of the resort partners in the Tasting Room. Although fairly expensive this Boutique Resort is clearly worth the cost. We will be back in the future.

My husband and I stayed here recently in the Diadem room for our fifth anniversary and we had the most amazing time. Everything was absolutely perfect and the staff were all amazing. Don't miss breakfast -- it's worth the stay just for this fabulous meal!

We stayed here for our honeymoon last week, and were completely enamored by everything about Black Star Farms. The breakfast given each morning is amazing, and made with many organic products that are grown onsite (bacon, asparagus, etc) and/or from local businesses. The farm onsite has an array of animals, which for an animal lover like myself was a joy (baby turkeys, horses, chickens, goats, baby geese, pigs). The wine tasting that is given to you complimentary as a guest was wonderful. Besides finding many wines (Pinot Gris, House Red and White, etc) that were wonderful, we were also treated to finding some amazing brandy's that were made, as well as, some wonderful cheeses (There Raclette is a must try!!). I also have to mention there staff. Each and every person we encountered were true custodians, going above and beyond to ensure that our stay was enjoyed. Most importantly, the room we stayed in was absolutely perfect. The room was very well made, having an abundance of storage cabinets for clothing, his/her sinks and the most comfortable sheets I have ever had the pleasure of having in a hotel/inn.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Clean, spacious room; many common areas for relaxing. Gourmet breakfast and afternoon appetizers. High class all the way.

Fabulous dinner in the Arcturos Room which included the seasonal asparagus and morel mushrooms on the menu. It was Asparagus Festival Weekend in Empire, so the inclusion of these Spring delicacies was divine. Ernie (the Birthday Boy) enjoyed his very first massage...and the Jacuzzi tub in the Atlas room was above and beyone our expectations! Imagine the ambiance of lightning flashing through the skylight, votive candles reflected in the mirrored tub surround - and a bathtub easily big enough for two tall people! It was wonderful.

We stayed at Black Star Farms in mid spring. There are quite a few things to do right on their property and they are centrally located in the Traverse City wine country. The Atmosphere was very comfortable and Jill the innkeeper was very warming and welcoming.

My husband and I stayed here for a belated anniversary getaway in early May. The staff was amazing and so friendly and helpful. The food was absolutely outstanding - I still dream about those breakfasts! We had a wonderful, relaxing time. Highly recommended.

From the winery to the Inn, we were treated like royalty. The location is perfect. Brought our bikes and rode the Leelanau Trail for 30 miles (You can pick up the trail just down the road from Black Star Farms).

This was our 25th anniversary and they made it special. We had a massage, a long stem rose for my wife and a special bottle of Champaigne with two Black Star Farms flutes to take home. The breakfast was a treat unto itself, we have dined at some good restaurants and the chef made this an experiece we intend to go back for. The off season was perfect for us, we had the inn to ourselves and it was very enjoyable. If you're looking for a mid week retreat that will treat you head to Black Star Farms.

Had a great weekend! Big comfortable room, great breakfast, and all the wine you can drink!

Staying at the Inn at Black Star Farms is an amazing experience. Every person you come in contact with is committed to making your stay the best experience of your life. The rooms are luxurious - even the smallest rooms. From the towels to the guest robes to the bed linens and pillows, everything about this inn screams luxury. The breakfast is prepared and presented flawlessly - made from products from their farm and nearby suppliers. A new addition to the experience was dinner in the Arcturos Dining Room. We had to try it - as good as any restaurant in the area.

Just returned from a weekend at Black Star Farms and had a very good time. Unlimited wine for the weekend. The food was good though not everyone likes Eggs Benedict. Kelly served up the food and never told us what we were getting. The rooms were very nice and luxurious.

I could not imagine a better getaway for us and our friends. Everyone on staff was warm and genuinely good people- we ate ourselves into happy food comas at every opportunity. The facility, the wine and the people were amazing!

The Inn is beautiful and the setting dramatic. The staff made us feel very much at home; the hospitality hour appetizers were creative and delicious and would have been a satisfying meal in and of themselves. However, I would not recommend skipping dinner because dinner in the Inn's restaurant was wonderful, great food, beatuifully plated, and a most gracious wait staff. Guests also enjoy a complimentary tasting in the tasting room next door and the staff there is just as knowledgeable, gracious and upbeat as the staff at the Inn. Overall, the stay could not have been more delightful.

The overall presentation of the Inn was great. The hospitality of the staff was very warm and welcoming. Everyone was very personable and took time to have a conversation and share the secrets of the area. Before we left, my wife and I were discussing when we'd be back. The food was incrediable and we wish we ate there the second night. The only thing we wish they had was an espresso machine. There was plenty of food and drinks and it was a very relaxing and inviting place. Our next trip we plan to just stay at the Inn and not venture out because there is a lot to do just on the grounds.

The Mira room was really beautiful, the staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was very inviting. The whole experience was outstanding! We will definitely visit again.

As always, spectacular service, food and wine. This is the 5th year in a row and I have never been dissapointed. My favorite food and wine get-away.

We always love going to Black Star. Great rooms, great riesling, great breakfasts and hospitality hour...we try to make it up there at least once a year.

We stayed for a winter getaway and it couldn't have been nicer. We will be back!

A friend recommended the Inn for our 25th anniversary weekend getaway. We can't say enough good things about BSF. Our weekend was relaxing, peaceful, fun, and just what we needed. The staff was very welcoming, the food was incredible, and the whole atmosphere was comfortable and yet classy. And did we mention the excellent wine? We can't wait to return and bring our friends.

Amazing stay. Beautiful, serene, perfect for a snowshoeing weekend. The food was the best. Wish the rooms were not so expensive. Would stay more often!

We took a few days to go to the Traverse City area to relax and snow shoe. The Black Star Inn has 168 acres in which to snow show, they have very good wine, very good service, good breakfasts and nice rooms allowing for a very relaxing time.

Black Star is the best B&B I've been to...casual but elegant. Staff is genuine, easy-going, and attentive. Innkeeper Kellie makes you feel like you belong and Owner Don comes and greets everyone at breakfast. The happy hour was fabulous to get to know other guests. This B&B just gives you a happy feeling...you don't want to leave. Wine touring in the winter is great!...smaller crowds at the wineries, more personal attention, and everyone seems to be relaxed. Overall excellent experience.

Stayed at the Inn during a light snowstorm in December. It was a beautiful and romantic place to relax with my fiance, who said "yes" to my proposal while at the Inn. Wine was great and the staff was very friendly. Breakfast was gourmet!

We have enjoyed the beauty and hospitality of the Inn at Black Star Farms in the Summer, so we decided to make a visit in the Winter to celebrate the snow. With its delicious, hearty breakfasts prepared with locally-sourced ingredients, we were energized to blaze the trail for hiking and cross-country skiing. The Inn enfolds you with warmth as you return from a day out in the elements, and it is gratifying to soak in the tub and use the sauna after an active day in the snow. Not to be missed is the hospitality hour. The gracious Innkeepers, Jill and Kellie, pour selections from the winery, paired with light bites from the kitchen, and assist in making dinner reservations and answering questions about the area from their wealth of experience. If an Inn can be judged by its guests, then Black Star Farms is a jovial, intriguing friend, who we enjoy seeing time and again.

My husband and I wanted a low key New Year's Eve where we could ring in the New Year and not have the hustle and bustle of crowds and the worry of drinking and driving. Black Star Farms exceeded are expectations. We enjoyed ourselves from the moment we stepped foot in the door! Our room was awesome, I believe it was called the Mira. The tasting room, which we indulged in prior to the 5:30 to 6:30 hospitality wine in the commons area, was a pure delight! We met several other couples that we thoroughly enjoyed getting to know and then it was time for our 7:00 p.m. dinner reservation. Our waitress, Stephanie, was so bubbly and entertaining and made our eveing even that much more enjoyable! We grabbed a few of the party favors, hats and noise makers and made our way back to our room and took advantage of the complimentary bottle of Chardonnay in our fridge! I give this property an A+. It was incredible and I look forward to coming back soon! The staff was excellent and there wasn't a single detail they didn't think of or miss. A fresh pot of coffee and fixings for tea even waited outside our room in the morning. Chocolates on the pillow the night before.......absolutely the best!! That's the only way I can think to express it! Black Star Farms is definately a place everyone should experience, at least once! I know I plan on being back many, many times! Thank you Black Star Farms for a memorable ring in to the New Year, 2011!!

It was just perfect..the room..the breakfast seemed like something you would get at the Four Seasons or even better..it was the best romantic get away from the kids we have had in years..

This Inn is quiet and relaxing. The service and friendliness of the staff and the Inn and in the Winery is outstanding. Whenever we need a place to get away relax and recharge it is Blackstar Farms that we choose any time of year.

Black Star Farm was a great place to stay. It was the best way we could think of to relax. The people that worked at the B&B real know how to make their guests feel welcomed. Thank for they stay.

We discovered that we were the only 2 guests (mid-week) and had the beautiful environs to outselves. Appetizers, complimentary bottle of wine, cookies, etc. were wonderfully thoughtful touches. Even though there were just the 2 of us we received full and cordial treatment from everyone on the staff. A perpetual snow shower certainly made the evening in front of the fireplace a toasty experience.

The host and staff were very gracious and accommodating. The food was superb and the surrounding area was gorgeous. George Patak Farmington Hills, Michigan

We eloped to Black Star Farms and had an amazing expereince. It was everything we hoped for and more. The room was gorgeous, the hospitality amazing and the grounds absolutely beautiful! I would strongly recommend staying there.

We had a fantastic time at the Inn, you are treated wonderful from the moment you get there. Happy hour with fantastic snacks at 5:00, wine tasting in walking distance and a superb breakfast! The cafe was not open and dinner was not served when we were there because the chefs were away at a class. Super soft sheets and beautiful property! Highly recommend!

Beautiful inn, grounds, and setting. Enjoyed a three night stay in the Maira suite. Having stayed at many inns with simular room rates, Black Star just missed the ball on service. While Innkeeper and Staff were nice, they lacked going the extra mile to assure your satisfaction during the stay. I would not rule them out for future stays, just hope they strive for continous improvement.

Absolutely beutiful facility, grounds are stunning. Limited dining options nearby.

I was greeted by a gracious, friendly Innkeeper, welcomed back by the housekeeping staff, and enjoyed the social hour. I took advantage of the Hearth and Vine restaurant on the property to enjoy both lunch and dinner. The wood fired pizza was excellent! All of this to be topped by the marvelous breakfast created by the chef. I'm going back in two weeks and can't wait!

We look forward to coming here every Fall. Wonderful atmosphere, great wine and exceptional breakfast!! :)

We arrived on Saturday and only stayed one night. The level of privacy is fantastic as you cannot even walk into the lobby without a key. If potential customers want information on the Inn, they have to take a pamphlet from an outdoor kiosk...I really enjoyed this as you don't have people walking around who are not guests (very nice).. Access to the wine tasting room and your tastings are unlimited as a guest at the Inn. You also have a private tasting in the lounge that is not open to the public but only the guests...This area was full of rich wood, fireplace and leather seating...along with the regular bar. Guests also have unlimited access to house wine on tap from 6:30pm until the next day. Gourmat breakfast was fantastic with homemade snakes and their own roasted coffee. My wife and I plan on returning 1 or 2 times a year for the R&R at this wonderful / private retreat.

Nice but nothing special. Room was ok but small and not what was pictured. I have traveled all over and the dollar value was not there. This would be a 2 star hotel for perceived value and they really need to step it up a big notch to bring it up to a 4. I am very serious in saying that it's ok but nothing for the price. There are other much better deals in the area. Also the breakfast needs to be much more than what is given. Breakfast is the least expensive meal to prepare and to skimp, for the amount you are paying is ludicrous.

Black Star Inn is the the Perfect escape. It is a beautiful Inn in a gorgeous setting. It is impeccably clean. The atmosphere is elegant but relaxing. The staff are friendly and helpful and the breakfast is a gourmet delight. All of our expectations were far exceeded. Of course the wine tasting was fun too. We can not wait to return.

We celebrated one glorious day for our 11th wedding anniversary and had a fabulous time. Thank you to the Innkeepers for arranging our stay in the Atlas room and the wine tour with A. Paradise tours. Kudos to the fabulous female chef who cooked us a sinfully delicious thai corncake, ham, egg & spinach breakfast. We joined your wine club and came home with lots of great wines and memories that we will never forget. We will be back!!!!!!! Thank you all so very much. :)

The service was a perfect balance between personal attention and unintrusiveness, the setting was beautiful, the wine was fun. We certainly would return.

We brought 2 friends to enjoy the wonderful farm & all the amenities. We have been sharing for 9 years! We love it there.

This was by far the nicest, most luxurious bed and breakfast I have ever visited. Everything, down to the last detail, has been thought of at this inn. I stayed here with 3 friends and I will definitely come back and bring my husband next time!

We toured the wineries, including the sampling room at Black Star Farms. We walked the trails in the woods behind the B & B. It was a beautiful and peaceful place to be.
