Kohler’s Woodlake Market to Temporarily Close for Major Renovation and Marketplace Experience
KOHLER, Wis. – August 6, 2025 – Woodlake Market, a beloved destination in the heart of the Village of Kohler since 1986, will temporarily close to the public on Sunday, August 10, 2025, as it begins a full-scale renovation. The project marks a bold reimagining of the space to turn it into a vibrant, wellness-focused marketplace that blends culinary craftsmanship, community connection, and Midwestern hospitality. The updated market is expected to reopen in Summer 2026.
As part of this transition, a public sale will take place Wednesday, August 6 – Sunday, August 10 from 8am to 5pm or while supplies last, offering guests a final opportunity to shop their favorite items before construction begins.
“This transformation reflects our commitment to innovation and to creating dynamic spaces that serve both our residents and the many guests who travel to Kohler,” said Stephen Beaumont, president of Kohler Hospitality. “We are building more than a market. We are creating a destination that celebrates wellness, community, and the simple joy of exceptional food.”
The redesigned space will provide a more immersive shopping experience, introducing a new layout that prioritizes fresh, curated offerings and interactive culinary experiences. The revitalized market will include gourmet stations like a fresh deli and pizza oven, an expanded selection of wellness and sustainability-focused products, and a dedicated space for Kohler Original Recipe Chocolates - adding a sweet touch to the experience.
During the renovation period, Awakening Café will temporarily relocate to the Kohler Original Recipe Chocolates storefront, ensuring continued access to its wellness-focused offerings. Guests who are part of the market’s loyalty program will still be able to redeem points online during the closure, and all earned points will automatically transfer to the updated program when the market reopens.
The last day of operation for the current Woodlake Market is Sunday, August 10, with the revitalized market expected to reopen in summer 2026, ushering in a new era of culinary and community experiences that reflect Kohler’s enduring focus on well-being and hospitality.
