Boathouse Vineyards was established in 2009 when owners and founders Dave and Jane Albert planted 13 different grape varieties atop one of the highest points in Leelanau County. Today, Boathouse Vineyards remains a small, family-owned estate winery dedicated to growing exceptional grapes through organic farming practices and crafting intentionally made, small-lot wines. We invite you to visit our tasting room on the Narrows of Lake Leelanau, where peaceful waterfront views, thoughtfully crafted wines, and a warm, family-friendly atmosphere create the perfect place to relax and unwind.
Our hope for all who visit is to create lasting memories of enjoying fine estate-grown wines from our Leelanau County Winery located near Traverse City.
In close range of Traverse City Wineries, Our Tasting Room is situated on The Narrows, the beautiful waterway connecting North and South Lake Leelanau. Visitors can enjoy one of our wine flights, wine by the glass or one of our non alcoholic beverages, either on our covered porch or on our Adirondack chairs watching the boats go by. And, of course, boaters welcome.
