With the soul of a snow-covered lodge and the repose of a sun-soaked beach house, Bostwick Lake Inn sits aside the tranquil waters of Bostwick Lake on the outskirts of Rockford, Michigan.

A century's worth of history and character can be felt amongst the warm hues and knotty pine of the "BLI." The four-season deck is the favored spot for dining with the option to enjoy a craft beer or cocktail on the beach during warm weather months. The restaurant menu is highlighted by farm-fresh fare, smoke-tinged shareables, and imaginative takes on traditional American cuisine. Our regular guests rate the Potato Crusted Walleye and Crispy Brussels Sprouts as can't-miss classics. Whether you are seeking a destination for new adventures or a haven away from the daily grind–know that you can always **escape to the lake.**

Experience a little time travel on the Friends of Coopersville and Marne Railway.​Our vintage train travels between the villages of Coopersville and Marne, following 7 miles of track originally built in 1858. We don’t go very fast, but that’s the whole point. Sit back, relax and enjoy a bygone era of travel. We offer much more than just a train ride.
