Great Events at the Miscowaubik Club!

The Historic Miscowaubik Club is the Keweenaw's most unique setting for your special event. Located in the epicenter of the Keweenaw National Historic Park, the grand old club still offers the same amenities and world-class cuisine enjoyed by the privileged few during the prosperous copper boom. Steward Michelle Rose and Chef Rod Chapman are proud to continue the club's tradition of excellence into its 104th year of continuous service. The Miscowaubik staff is at your service to insure that your event it is all that you dream.

A word about Membership and Sponsorship

The Miscowaubik Club is a private club supported by the annual dues of its membership. Only current Miscowaubik Club members and members of its reciprocal clubs may reserve club facilities for private events. If you are not a member of the club or any of its reciprocal clubs (and do not wish to seek membership), your event must be sponsored by a current member in good standing. Steward Michelle will be happy to assist you in locating a sponsor if necessary.

Booking Procedures and Payment Terms

Advance booking reservations are required for all private events of 30 or more, and can be made by contacting club steward Michelle Rose at the club (906)-337-0603.

At least 30-days prior to the event, a non-refundable, non-transferable deposit of $300 is required to confirm your reservation.

A pre-payment of at least 75% of the estimated balance and a guaranteed attendance figure is required 7 days prior to the event.  For seated dinner packages where more than one entrée choice is offered, your attendance figure must include a count for each entrée chosen.  Placecards are required at the event.  The attendance count will serve as the minimum amount billed, and is not subject to reduction. If no guarantee is received, the Miscowaubik staff will prepare and charge for the number of people estimated from the catering contract. Deposits and pre-payments may be made by cash, check, money order, Visa, or Mastercard. Remaining balances will be billed to your (or your sponsor's) membership account following the event.

All banquet checks must be signed by the member sponsoring the event or a designated representative at the completion of each event. Any discrepancies in counts or charges should be identified and resolved at that time.

All food and beverage items are subject to 20% service charge. Food and non-alcoholic beverages are subject to 6% state sales tax.

All food and beverage must be supplied by the Miscowaubik Club or their contracted caterers with the exception of special occasion cakes. There is no service charge for cutting, plating, and serving the cake.

Please note that all federal, state, and local laws with regard to food and beverage purchase and consumption are strictly adhered to. Michigan law prohibits any intoxicating beverages from being brought into club events or any areas on Miscowaubik Club property. The Miscowaubik Club reserves the right to refuse bar service to any person who appears to be intoxicated or does not have valid identification. If anyone is found contributing alcohol to a minor or any other person whom has been refused bar service, the facility reserves the right to close the bar.
