This gorgeous property is set upon five acres and welcomes couples to unwind, enjoy a breathtaking sunset, and celebrate their love. The outdoor space is available for a ceremony with an incredible view of the lake. It also boasts a stunning backdrop for photos and a dining room reception space that seats up to 70 people.

Sage Lake is conveniently located just 20 miles northeast of West Branch off of I-75.
