“I attended a wedding here, as a plan B in case of rain.”
From the reviews
I attended a wedding here, as a plan B in case of rain. Sure enough, it rained. Seemed nice enough, with plenty of parking around the lodge. I didn't get to explore the place that much, but from what I saw it was nice.
Nice place, lots of space for different events. Great views of the lake and decent amount of parking. Clean facility and friendly people
Getting married at Wesley Lodge
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.
