The annual Whitefish Woody Weekend hosted by The Lodge at Whitefish Lake and presented by the Big Sky Chapter of the Antique and Classic Boat Society (ACBS), is a beloved celebration of timeless design and craftsmanship. This signature summer event welcomes wooden boat owners and enthusiasts alike to admire some of the most beautiful vessels to grace Whitefish Lake—and best of all, spectator admission is free.

With more than 40 wooden boats on display, guests can stroll the docks and enjoy an up-close look at both meticulously restored antiques and striking modern builds. Woody owners are on hand to share the stories behind their boats, offering insight into the history, restoration, and artistry that make each vessel truly one of a kind. From gleaming mahogany hulls to lively dockside conversation, Whitefish Woody Weekend is a can’t-miss experience for boat lovers and lake-life fans of all ages.

Spectator admission to this event is free!
