Foodie Travel

Featuring an abundance of locally-sourced, seasonal produce, as well as ingredients harvested from our own gardens, we offer an epicurean delight and a closer connection to cuisine that is as sustainable as it gets.

The Lodge at Woodloch embraces a philosophy of personal awakening. As so many individuals get swept up in the whirlwind of life, The Lodge at Woodloch strives to give you an opportunity to shift from your everyday routine and re-focus. Below is a sampling of activities focused on foodie travel - these activities are a starting point to a journey that will be uniquely yours.
