Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Perched at the convergence of Gull and Roy Lakes, this historic lodge has something for everyone—amenities include a sandy beach, championship golf course, a world-class spa, and even an indoor pool with a waterslide!
- It doesn’t get more charming than the intimate, light-filled Chapel, with its colorful stained glass and vaulted ceiling upheld by graceful arched trusses. For larger receptions and ceremonies, there’s a fab selection of well-designed indoor and outdoor venues, each with its own unique charm.
- Accommodate guests in style and comfort with a broad range of options ranging from traditional rooms and suites to family-friendly, multi-room cottages. One our favorites? The Loft Gull Haven Cabin, with its full kitchen and gracious gathering room with windows overlooking the Gull Lake.
