Rooted in Nourishment

Nourishment is a core pillar at Wild Rice Retreat, and we’ve crafted a welcoming dining experience at Root, our onsite kitchen, to fuel the soul. Guided by a holistic, Ayurvedic-inspired approach, we focus on creating meals with whole foods, placing a strong emphasis on fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, herbs, and spices to keep our guests feeling energized and satisfied.

Wow, Can’t Wait To Return

“Beautiful modern accommodations, sauna, yoga, aromatherapy class, on the shores of Lake Superior, and a wooded walking trail to the cute town of Bayfield, WI. And the FOOD!! It was exactly as I’d love to eat every day if I had a personal chef. Healthy, gluten/dairy free friendly, savory, gourmet brunch and dinner buffets, as well as lite breakfast pre yoga.”

I can't say enough good things about my experience! I will recommend this to everyone and anyone who is looking for a rejuvenating and supremely natural, yet sophisticated experience! A+++”
