The Boathouse Restaurant and The Lodges at Cresthaven is a wedding venue located in Lake George, New York. Nestled at the base of the Adirondack Mountains on Lake George, this 11-acre estate provides a scenic and secluded location for celebrations of love. The historic property was built in 1876 as part of the Adenin estate, then purchased by New York Times publisher Adolph Ochs in the 1920s. For many years it was an iconic stop on the lake’s Millionaire’s Row and hosted visitors such as Buffalo Bill Cody and John Philip Sousa. Today, it offers a romantic setting for couples looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a magical lakeside weekend.
