    A true 'up-north' experience awaits you at Wind in the Pines Bed & Breakfast. Our beautiful log home is nestled among acres of pines offering peaceful, quiet relaxation. Enjoy the warmth and comfort of staying in a 'real' log home. Our three spacious guest rooms reflect the beauty of the north woods with their pine cone, bear and moose themes. We are located on the west side of Traverse City, just five miles from downtown. Our guests tell us that our location is ideal - away from the hustle and bustle yet close enough to experience all that the city and the surrounds have to offer.


    You have made my visit to Michigan one I will never forget. Your hospitality was beyond the call of duty! Thanks for the best mornings to wake up to. V.F., New York

    We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend get-away here in Traverse City.  When we were looking for a B&B we didn't know how lucky we'd be to be referred to yours.  We can't imagine a more beautiful and relaxing setting and a warmer atmosphere.  Your log home is so "homey"!  It was fun getting to know you and thank you for your help with recommendations and directions.  We'd love to return.  JW

    We have had a truly wonderful stay.  Thank you for making us feel so welcome in your home...the accommodations, the delicious food and great company.  We have been to Traverse City several times but this was by far the best trip.  We appreciated learning even more about the area.  We will be back!  KP

    Who could believe that as we searched for B&B's in the Traverse City area we would luckily find you?  Our siblings were counting on us to pick out a wonderful spot for our annual vacation.  Your wonderful place (as well as your hospitality) made that possible!  Thanks for the wonderful breakfasts, the conversation and the advice on good places to visit.  RL
