From the reviews

We recently hosted a retirement party here for my mother in law. The space is absolutely beautiful. All the tables and chairs were set up as planned, the space was clean and Megan was beyond easy to work with a one get a hold of. I cannot say enough good things about the space and owner.

Hosted a Bridal Shower at Harbor House NT and it was wonderful. The space is beautiful itself so decorating was not required but easy to do. Megan sets out the tables for your party and makes sure everything is ready. Having the outdoor patio also made for perfect photo opportunities! Catering by Amy & Co. Cafe.

I booked this venue for my wedding shower and it was reasonably priced compared to other places. The booking process was fairly simple, and the building was beautiful! Perfect for what I needed and wanted! We had a wonderful time!!

We had a great experience working with Megan. She was very responsive and friendly. The venue is perfect for a variety of events. We used the inside bar and patio. I highly recommend this venue

Getting married at The Harbor House

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
