    Woods Restaurant

The Quintessential Mackinac Island Dining Experience

Remote, sophisticated, and cozy Bavarian hunting lodges began as simple shelter for hunting parties that would later become grand timber-built castles and halls for feasts and gatherings.

This is Woods Restaurant, Mackinac Island’s perfect culinary hideaway chalet.

We honor the Midwest legacy of food foraged from field and farm, and the tradition of sharing a variety of wilderness game with kindred spirits. Whether in the Great Hall, the Table of Fire Patio, or Lodge Pavilion, you’ll be surrounded by the majesty and beauty only nature can provide.

Woods Restaurant opens for the 2023 season on Friday, June 16.
