Enjoy wine & chocolate pairings while peacefully cruising the river. Super staff! Our captain pointed out the sights—a very relaxing tour with the quiet electric motor. This was the highlight of our trip to Frankenmuth! Note: dogs allowed if you are the first one to book a particular tour. We booked ahead and had no problem finding a time slot. Plus you get to keep your wineglass.

Loved Ludington Bay Brewing! Their dog-friendly patio was tented for the cold weather and had a fireplace and heaters. It’s rare to find an outdoor patio to enjoy a meal with your pup! The beer, non-beer-people beverages and food were all superb.

Shady Lane Cellars has the most beautiful dog-friendly outdoor patio of all the wineries we visited in Michigan! Fireplaces, an outdoor bar and plenty of seating with gorgeous views.

Loved Mawby Wines. Super friendly staff. Great bubbly wines. Dogs are welcome at the picnic tables where you can enjoy a glass of bubbly. If you could get a flight in the dog area, it would be 6 stars!
