Known as the inn on two lakes, Canfield House Bed and Breakfast overlooks beautiful Portage Lake, which connects to Lake Michigan in Onekama, 45 miles southwest of Traverse City.
Built in 1900 as the summer home of lumber baron Charles Canfield, Canfield House Bed and Breakfast’s six guest rooms have been completely renovated while retaining the original charm.
Let Canfield House B&B be your home base for day trips to explore the surrounding areas. Onekama is a four-season getaway destination. Guests will find downhill ski slopes, snowmobile trails, championship golf courses, wooded trails, beaches, and dunes within a short distance from the inn.
Onekama is full of history, as is the nearby town of Manistee, which has its historic riverwalk, shops, restaurants, and a turn-of-the-century theater. Little River Casino is seven miles from the Inn.
As you approach Canfield House Bed and Breakfast, you will sense the 2.5-acre peaceful atmosphere. Turn-of-the-century features of the house have been preserved, including the covered wrap-around porch, the Dutch doors of the dining room, which open onto the porch, and the original leaded glass windows and magnificent stone fireplace in the large gathering room. Relax in front of the fireplace, warm up to a book from our eclectic collection, enjoy one of the many board games with other guests, or enjoy the comfort of your bedroom or a stroll along Lake Michigan. The inn is perfect for small gatherings, rehearsal dinners, wedding receptions, showers, or business meetings.
At the Canfield House, we pride ourselves on our commitment to using locally sourced, fresh produce, fruits, and the finest ingredients available. This dedication ensures our menu evolves with the seasons, offering a dynamic and delightful culinary experience.
Indulge in selections like sweet and savory crepes, French baked eggs, peaches and yogurt topped with a local cherry whiskey flambé, and our signature West Michigan coast avocado toast.
Join us each morning in our dining room overlooking Portage Lake for a delightful two-course breakfast, where every meal reflects the vibrant flavors of the season.
