Where Lifetime Memories Are Made

Situated along five miles of stunningly beautiful Lake Michigan shoreline between Petoskey and Charlevoix, Bay Harbor is an idyllic destination for vacationers, visitors and residents alike. With spectacular views, world-class amenities, unique accommodations, unrivaled recreational opportunities and a calendar full of events, it’s the perfect place to mix business with pleasure, connect with friends and family or simply unplug.

WE ARE A FOUR-SEASON RESORT.  We welcome guests throughout the entire year to enjoy the beauty of Bay Harbor in every season!

The Village at Bay Harbor is a magical place. The summertime is humming at the Bay Harbor Lake Marina with an abundance of seasonal and transient boaters, waterfront dining and visitors browsing the specialty shops, enjoying waterfront dining and the annual events including the In-Water Boat Show, Classic Car & Boat Festival, July 3rd fireworks and Bay Harbor Arts Festival.  The spectacular fall season offers our nationally-recognized Balloons Over Bay Harbor event in September and the glorious colors of October and early November. The winter is also so lovely, with the beautiful twinkling lights of the Village.  We encourage guests to venture up north for a ski weekend or a relaxing escape, at our award-winning boutique style hotel with cozy fireplace suites or in our charming vacation homes.

When you’re ready to reward yourself with Northern Michigan at its best, Bay Harbor is the destination of choice.

All the rooms are decorated differently. We stayed in room 314/315 and how cool and comfortable! Five stars. The village has everything you need for your stay. Three restaurants, shopping, a little market, ice cream. Five stars. Want the beach? It's a one minute walk. Five stars. Entertainment? Check, the Great Lakes Center for the Arts is right in the village. Five stars. This is a hidden little gem that absolutely has to be on your bucket list.

Great hotel, my second stay and enjoyed it both times. The location is peaceful and right on the water yet just a few minute drive to downtown Petoskey. Our standard rooms were nice, I'd imagine the upgraded rooms are even better. Definitely will be back in the future!

As referred to as the Crown Jewel of Michigan I couldn't agree more. A beautiful place to stay & celebrate our Anniversary. The view of the Bay is absolutely breath taking... Even during the off season it's romantic place to engage as a married couple still deeply in love with each other! We're hoping to come back during the summer months when there is more to do & see.

Michigan's northern secret. Great place to stop and walk the small main street and then walk the docks.

Incredible -- stay here! I initially booked the Bay Harbor Village Hotel, due to a work trip. I was ultimately decided if I should book between this hotel, and another. I am SO glad we booked this one. Not only was our room completely remodeled with fresh paint, new carpet, etc. It was impeccably clean. I had the queen double. I loved that it had a DEEP jetted bathtub, thick comfortable blankets. It had a WASHER AND DRYER. The staff was so great. It had so many great places to eat, and shop, RIGHT under your room. The little village area is adorable, and I am so impressed. I stay in tons of hotels for work, and this is a great one. LOVE IT!!!

Staff/front desk was wonderful. Our room overlooked the marina so our view could not have been better. We had a parlor room with a sofa bed and separate bedroom, 1.5 baths. Everything was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, coffee maker, etc. While we didn't use the pool or work out room it looked much better than most 5 star facilities.

Beautiful property - 5 stars! A wonderful family vacation!! The parlor suite had breathtaking views and it was a great location! Our suite was extremely spacious, clean, updated, and we felt right at home. With a few restaurants right across the street we were able to walk everywhere. It was the perfect trip and we can’t wait to go back soon! Many memories were made!

Beautiful views from a great room!! I stayed at the Bay Harbor Village hotel this summer and absolutely loved it! The front desk staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. Our room was very nice and super clean. The parlor suite was really spacious and had everything we needed. It was so nice waking up and going outside to our balcony overlooking Lake Michigan. We can't wait to visit again!

Our group thoroughly enjoyed their stay with at the Village Suites of Bay Harbor. Everything was excellent from the rooms, catering, meeting room and the restaurants you have there! They kept commenting on how nice the meeting room was and how nice their rooms were. I was informed yesterday that our group thinks this was the best retreat they’ve ever had! That is extremely high praise coming from them.
