On Friday evening during Saint Paddy’s Day Bed and Brew Weekend, join us for a farm-to-table meal from our Wild Crafter’s Kitchen menu, open from 5–8 pm. We recommend making reservations to make sure you’ll have a seat.

On Saturday morning, venture out with others on a Polar Bear Float, a 4-mile winter kayaking float hosted by Cook Forest State Park. Register with the Cook Forest Park office by March 11th to participate. Or take a hike through the Forest Cathedral to see some of the oldest White Pines and Eastern Hemlock on this side of the Mississippi. 

While here, immerse yourself in the pampering amenities of a Fireside Suite with a jetted tub and gas fireplace. Most Suites also include a king bed with a private balcony. And every morning, be greeted with a made-from-scratch breakfast delivered right to your door.
