I am a wedding vendor and have worked at Rouge River Lodge several times. Hands down one of the best venues to work at/book for an event. Anne is one of the most detail oriented and organized people I have ever met. Everything always runs smoothly and efficiently. If you are looking for a venue for an upcoming wedding I would HIGHLY recommend Rouge River Lodge. You will be amazed at the beautiful venue and how it is run! Definitely give them a call about your next event!

It has been almost two months since my wedding, and I am still in shock of how well everything went. I avoided writing a review for so long because it was so difficult to adequately put in words the perfection of that day thanks to Anne’s help. There is no doubt in my mind that without her coordination of all the vendors and gentle reassurance while I was getting ready, I would likely have broken down at some point during the wedding. She helped us through the entire planning process, and honestly without her guidelines and recommendations I would have been absolutely lost. Unfortunately, the venue was smokey the full day, though it did clear up as Anne said it would later in the afternoon. Despite that, since we can’t control the weather, the pictures had a soft hazy glow to them which had the dreamy effect I didn’t know I wanted! The experience altogether was incredible, and I have no regrets about choosing Anne and her amazing venue.
And I highly recommend the stuffed French toast she makes for breakfast the next day!! Thank you Anne!

We got married here in August and we were blown away not only by the beauty of the venue but also the high standard of service included in the package. It really is an incredible value and it was a blessing for my family to not have to do a ton of rigorous set-up or tear-down after traveling for 4 1/2 hours just to be there. Anne and Lee work hard to ensure that your wedding day is as stress-free as possible, and it shows! Learning from each wedding, they continue to work to improve and they have a wealth of helpful information to share, which isn't hard to access as they're very quick in their communications with you. They provide a list of recommended (not at all required) vendors as a bonus, and it really helped me in my search for vendors as I wasn't local. I ended up pulling nearly all my wedding vendors from their list, and our day could not have gone more perfectly thanks to all of them. Unless they're consistently providing excellent service to the wedding party's and Anne's satisfaction, they don't make the list. For all that you have included, from the right-on-the-river location to the wedding night cabin to the top-tier service and amenities you have access to, you really can't find a better value out there or a more beautiful place to get married, period. Many of my guests said it was the best wedding they'd been to, and I have to point to who gets a huge chunk of the credit. Check them out, I guarantee you won't regret it!
