Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- The peaceful Crooked River runs right alongside this gorgeous northern Michigan lodge, inviting nature-loving couples to celebrate right on the riverbank, accompanied by the sound of moving water and the breeze through the trees. You can even arrive by boat, mooring just steps away from your ceremony site... or make a dramatic exit after the "I do"s!
- A beautifully appointed tent on the sweeping waterfront lawn is made for al fresco receptions, complete with tables, chairs, linens, plateware, glassware, a dance floor, and a full service event team to bring it all together. Your delicious menu is also crafted right on-site, customized to fit your tastes and preferences with fresh, locally sourced ingredients that showcase the bounty of the region.
- You'll definitely want to stay the weekend, with ample lodging for your loved ones in the cozy lodge rooms and suites. Keep it laid back by hanging beside by the heated pool or the charming fish pond, or take advantage of the stunning natural surroundings and paddle the complimentary kayaks up to Burt Lake, head out for a snowshoe or ski, or join your furry friends for a hike on the on-site trails.
