Lake Life Served Daily

Dining is always better with a lake view. In 2020, Boatwerks overhauled its patio and bar area, allowing for a more enjoyable dining experience while adding additional seating for more diners to enjoy the views of Lake Macatawa. With this expansion, the new bar area features garage doors that open the space, allowing the outside in on those beautiful Michigan summer days. Boatwerks also has room for boaters to tie up while dining!
