From ethically raised meats to harvest-fresh ingredients, our menu is a celebration of regional craftsmanship and a commitment to the enduring spirit of the Northwoods.
LODGING
Above the Hum
As you ascend the staircase, the energy of Bootleggers shifts from social to sanctuary. Guests are greeted by a corridor of soaring ceilings and curated artwork, where the glow of grand chandeliers guides you into an era of quiet luxury. It is a transition through history, leading you away from the world and directly to the secluded comfort of your private guest suite.
