Bootleggers Lodge, which came under new ownership in 2021, is a lakeside log cabin restaurant that boasts a long history in the Northwoods going back to the 1920s. For many years, it thrived as Phil's Northwoods Resort when it became a staple for many Wisconsin families who returned for summer vacations year after year. Later, it was purchased and opened as Bootleggers Supper Club, a beloved local supper club for more than two decades. Today, Bootleggers Lodge offers fine, seasonal American fare in a beautifully reimagined, rustic space that features breathtaking, 180-degree views of Lake Nokomis.
