Things To Do
Cherry Creek Cellars
This is one of our favorite Michigan wineries—and a go-to hangout for the Harms/Hudson family! Located just 3 minutes down the road from White Birch Wedding Barn, it’s the perfect spot to unwind. Enjoy a glass of wine, share a delicious appetizer, and relax in their beautiful outdoor seating area while taking in the stunning Michigan fall colors.
Atlas Restaurant & Bar
This is our favorite new restaurant in downtown Brooklyn (located 10 minutes from White Birch Wedding Barn)! This place perfectly blends small-town Michigan charm with Chicago-style sophistication. The Mediterranean-inspired menu is absolutely delicious, the cocktails and wine selection are top-tier, and there’s even a boutique shop for unique, local finds. This is a great place for gathering with friends on a Saturday and watching a college football game.
Clark Lake Golf Club and Restaurant
If you're hoping to squeeze in a round of golf on Saturday before the wedding, we highly recommend Clark Lake Golf Course. Beautifully situated between Columbia Lake and Clark Lake, this scenic course offers a relaxing and memorable experience. It’s the perfect way to enjoy the crisp fall weather while spending time on the course with friends.
Meckley’s Flavor Fruit Farm
We also recommend making a stop at Meckley's Flavor Fruit Farm while you're in the Irish Hills area—there’s no better way to soak in the full Michigan fall experience. Meckley’s features a cider mill, bakery, and tap room, all set against the backdrop of a beautiful orchard. Guests travel from near and far for their fresh-baked goods, so it’s definitely worth a visit. Be sure to check out their impressive selection online before you go!
