Property Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a well-established brewery and restaurant located in the heart of Mackinaw City, the gateway to Mackinac Island. Rusted Spoke Brewing Co. is a popular destination for locals and the millions of visitors who pass through each year on their way to one of Michigan's premier tourist attractions. Perfectly positioned just minutes from the ferries to Mackinac Island, this business benefits from unparalleled visibility, high-volume seasonal traffic, and a reputation for quality craft beer, great food, and a welcoming atmosphere. The property features a spacious taproom, full-service kitchen, indoor and outdoor dining, and a strong brand identity with significant growth potential.
Included in the sale are valuable liquor licenses, offering tremendous flexibility and revenue opportunities:
Retail - Off Premises (Specialty Designated Merchant)
Retail - On Premises (Brew Pub)
Retail - On Premises Class C (Resort)
Adding to the opportunity is the untapped potential of 8 hotel rooms located on-site. With Mackinaw City serving as one of Northern Michigan's busiest lodging markets, the development or revitalization of these rooms could create a strong additional income stream and further enhance the property's draw as a complete hospitality destination.
With Mackinac Island consistently ranked among the top travel destinations in the country, Rusted Spoke Brewing Co. enjoys a steady stream of customers looking to experience Northern Michigan hospitality before or after their island adventure. This is a turnkey investment opportunity to own a thriving business in one of the state's most desirable and iconic locations.
Mackinac Island is highly ranked, recognized as the #1 Best Summer Travel Destination by USA Today's 10Best Readers' Choice Awards for three consecutive years (2023, 2024, and 2025). It also placed #3 Best Island in the Continental U.S
