We had our wedding and reception for 180 people at the lodge in May 2017 and it was perfect. Cassidy was very responsive and accommodating. The staff were absolutely amazing - very polite, attentive to detail, and welcoming. The venue itself is breaktaking in all its natural beauty. And the food was so delicious - all the guests raved about the fried chicken. Highly recommend!

Our rehearsal dinner was done in the main dining room and was served family style. Fried chicken was excellent. we were semi secluded so that was nice also.
