Four kinds of weekends that fit the property.

The property is built for slowed time and considered hosting. Some events fit naturally — weddings, corporate offsites, family gatherings, brand activations. Below: what works, what each looks like.

Weddings

A wedding under the trees.

Weddings on forty-four acres — up to 150 guests for the ceremony and reception, or a tented farm-to-table dinner under the canopy. The Solarium, the Lake House dock, and the long table are all available. Twenty-plus sleep on the property over the wedding weekend.
