    Congratulations Lindsay and Nolan on your engagement! What a perfect place to make a special memory. On the back of the property they have a GIANT heart wrapped with grape vines. Could not ask for a more romantic place. We witnessed the love between two beautiful souls and then went to the tasting room to celebrate with wine and some golf. Yes you heard me! They had a bucket/barrel and if you could make hole in one you would get a bottle of wine on the house. Now this bucket is a far ways away and the chance of making this shot is slim but not impossible. We did not make the shot on this trip but It definitely was fun watching everyone try! They had tables set out for everyone to enjoy the overlook and views while enjoying their wine. It was suggested to mix and match to create a beverage so I took and chance and was pleasantly surprised with the taste of Apple of my Elia and just peachy 50/50. We purchase a small batch of cherry bourbon for home as well as took part in an event the facility was holding on this particular day with Lakuna Links and permanent jewelry. What an excellent day all around. Torch Lake Cellars will definitely be a place in my book to stop again. Their slogan says it all. It's a grape Life!!!

    How have we not been here before?!?! We went to twelve wineries/cideries this weekend and this was one of our favorite spots. We didn't have one cider we disliked, the view was spectacular, the setting was idyllic, and the service was on point. The rainbow was the icing on the cake. We will 100% be back:

    Wine Flight was enjoyable with scenic views.  Great place to relax with friends!

    Excellent wine choices, scenic views, great find while visiting Torch lake. Nice place to spend the afternoon with friends. We will return in the future!

    Charming little winery that offers a limited, but very good, choice of ciders and wines. We lean toward being wine snobs and we really liked the boca noir (sweet) as well as the zweigelt (dry). The peach and black cherry cider was also really good. Some of the best we had in the area. It's a fun place with a gorgeous view, corn hole, and a hole in one game that rewards you with a free bottle of wine (we watched for quite awhile and no one won-- it looked pretty tough). If you're looking for a nice place to taste wine or cider, you will enjoy this cute little spot.

    The views here are stunning! A truly must stop just to take it in.  They built a fantastic tasting room with lots of stone and polished wood put together in a regular style yet with artsy touches. They charge $6 for 6 tastes. Neither of us liked their wines, but their cider varieties are outstanding. Johnny Cider and Sangria being my two favorites. The only real issue is they are so small they can't bottle their ciders, so you have to drink it within 7 days from a howler before it goes bad. This prevents you from buying multiple varieties or even multiple of the same one for a later day. Hopefully everyone will find this gem and help it grow big enough to be able to bottle their ciders. The service was excellent. Overall a 5 star review. I would definitely return and make sure you check out the 2nd floor viewing area.

    My husband and I always stop into Torch Lake Cellars when we are in Bellaire. There is an excellent selection of wine and they even have cider now! We have been very impressed with both the wine and cider and it seems like every time we stop in there is something new to try! The vineyard and winery are absolutely beautiful! We bought a post and even get a discount now as well! The staff is very social and friendly. We always try to stock up before we head back to IL. IF you are in the area I highly recommend stopping in. You will not be disappointed!

    Beautiful view, we had a blast evening, Best wine tasting I highly recommended and the option to play golf amazing.

    Best time ever, beautiful views, excellent costumer service, highly recommended. My favorite wine pretty pink.

A perfect stop between Traverse City and Mackinaw City, this charming, cozy, epicenter of hospitality has so much to offer. The market has a fun selection of locally-curated items to its own homemade pies, soups, salad, and in-season produce. The Tasting Room is a comfy spot, appointed with more tchotckes, nibbles, a fireplace, and an array of respectable wines and ciders to try. You can stroll around the grounds, see the scenic views, and relax over a flight of unique and tasty beverages. Most definitely a must-visit stop!

On our latest visit while they were out of bottles of my favorite cider, which is the hard red, a combination of apple and cherry it was still on draft so we enjoyed a flight of four and hiked up the short hill to enjoy the scenic overlook that is waiting for you. Everything we tried in our flight was delicious and we ended up with bottles of everything to bring home. My personal favorites were of course the hard red but also the cheeky cherry, which is a sweet cherry wine and the botanical which is a semi sweet pear tasting cider. Service is always friendly and accommodating. On our way out, we visited the farm shop and picked up some cheeses and a apple cider donut for the road. Cheers!
