- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 19 Apr, 2026 at 11:00 am – Sun, 19 Apr, 2026 at 03:00 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Spring means one thing around here…MUSHROOMS!
Our annual Mushroom Festival is returning to Pere Marquette Lodge for it’s 17th year! This crowd favorite event is free and open to the public and great for all ages! Come join us for unique vendors both indoors and out, live music on our winery patio, themed drinks and specials, mushroom hunting, and all there is to learn about Morel mushrooms!

The Great Morel Hunt will be held at 1pm (weather and morel permitting). You’ll join fellow hunters from all over the area as you scan the ground for these delicious delicacies! If you’re new to mushroom hunting, not to worry! The Lodge will have 2 seasoned hunters out in the woods with you for help! Once the hunt is over, bring your finds back to the Lodge to see if you found the smallest, biggest, or most Morels. If you do, you’ll be taking home a FREE NIGHT STAY to our one-of-a-kind Lodge! 

The hunt is free and for all ages! Please wear sturdy shoes as you will be on uneven ground and bring a sack to hold your finds. Spring is in the air and mushrooms are on the ground…let’s find em!

We want you to know:
*You do not have to go on the guided hunt to enter the contest, you can also go on your own.
*The guided mushroom hunt is HUGE and we will have more people than there are mushrooms in the spot we're going to. This is more of an experience than a hunt to find enough shrooms for a meal!
