Great place for a wedding

Marissa and Jessica were very helpful and communicative the entire process of planning a wedding the the opposite coast! When everything came together that day, after not even seeing the resort, we were so pleased! The family had a great time on the boats, around the fire, in the sauna and around the trails! Our time there could not have been better! The cabins were super comfortable! We loved our stay!! Thank you Marissa for all of your attention to detail, for going above and beyond and for making ‘suggestions’ to lead us to the right decisions!! Totally recommend!
