The concept of a “staycation” is the heart and soul of Mackinaw Valley Vineyard’s mission. In 1998, when owner Paul Hahn attended a seminar about growing wine grapes in the Midwest, it was the beginning of what 17 years later is now the oldest winery and vineyard in Central Illinois. The month of May 2003 saw the opening to the public of the original wine tasting room. Through the years improvements and additions have been made to the property and buildings meeting the need for increased winemaking and customer spaces to support the concerts, festivals, business and social events and weddings and receptions hosted annually at the vineyard.
