Briar Oaks was built in the 1930's by a prominent local businessman on four acres of picturesque woods overlooking Beaver Creek.

He aquired beautiful oak floors from mansions that were being torn down in Ann Arbor for the expansion of the University of Michigan.

Throughout Briar Oaks you will see the beauty and fine craftsmanship used in building this romantic getaway.

Come relax and enjoy the hospitality of our Southeast bed and breakfast.

There is so much room inside.   Our inn is 2,600 sq. ft. and our rooms are larger than most, ranging from 310 sq ft to 488 sq ft.

Stroll the grounds, take time to smell the roses, watch squirrels play, relax on the patio.

The Tuttle Suite is named after Mr. and Mrs. Robert Tuttle, a local newspaper publisher who lived in the home for twenty-three years.

What an exquisite suite, romance begins with a complimentary bottle of champagne. Next dim the lights, relax and refresh your spirits in the two-person Jacuzzi while watching the dancing flames of the fireplace.
