Upper Deck

Our Upper Deck sits elevated above the vineyard rows, allowing guests to take in spectacular views of the 155-acre estate and East Grand Traverse Bay while enjoying their wine selections. Upper Deck closed for table service until Memorial Day Weekend 2025. Some seating available through winter season, safety and weather permitting. Learn more

Lawn Bar 

The Lawn Bar is an outdoor service area just outside of the tasting room doors that offers seating for guests to relax at while they enjoy their glasses of wine, Frosé, hard cider, and snack items. Reservations are not required and all group sizes are welcome. In the winter, fire pits warm the guests seated around them. In the summer and fall, relax at a picnic table or Adirondack chair and take part in a game of cornhole. Wine flights and cheese & charcuterie boards are not served in this location. Dogs are allowed as long as they remain leashed and are properly cared for. Learn more

Now open during regular business hours! Snowshoe, cross-country ski, or hike the best of Brys Estate's 155 acres. Our 2 winter trail options boast beautiful views of a quiet vineyard, resting lavender fields, and snowy, wooded valleys. Keep warm with an insulated mug of our Spiked Hot Apple Cider or a glass of wine while you explore the trail. Learn more
