I had my bridal shower here (in the boathouse) and I’m so glad I did!! Absolutely LOVED this venue!! The view of the lake was incredible, their communication from start to finish was amazing. It was the perfect day and they made me feel SO important!
We had a small/intimate wedding at the Clearwater Harbor Boathouse and Chief Waupaca. We LOVED every moment of our wedding and were so lucky to find such a hidden gem. I still receive compliments on our dinner which included local tenderloin from Niemuth's Steak & Chop Shop. We had Key Lime Pie for dessert which was so fun and different! We were married in the boathouse at 4pm, had a champagne cruise on the Chief Waupaca from 4:30-6pm, and then went back to the boathouse for dinner and dancing! The staff at The Clearwater Harbor are amazing and I could not recommend this venue enough!
My husband and I had an AMAZING experience working with the Clear Water Harbor and all of their staff before, during, and after our wedding day. They were easy to communicate with throughout the entire process, and were extremely kind and helpful. We had our ceremony on the Chief Waupaca - which turned out better than we could have expected. The Captain was fun and kind, and the harbor set up the boat with drinks and amazing appetizers for the cruise. The boat was clean and set up perfectly for the ceremony. Then, we had our dinner and reception in the boathouse, which was also perfect. They had an easygoing bartender in the boathouse for the night - and the food was exceptional (our guests raved about it for a long time). They were timely in breaking down the tables after dinner to make room for our reception and the staff was professional and efficient. They have all of their rules and expectations clearly outlined on their website - and if we had an additional questions they were very quick in responding. Again, everything about the day was beautiful and easy. We would do it all again exactly as we did if we could, and we recommend the Harbor to anyone who is looking to have a smaller and more intimate wedding experience.
P.S. Our photographer Abigail Traver Photo was AMAZING as well and did a wonderful job taking photos on the boat and in the boat house. It was a new space for her but she certainly didn't falter a bit! The photos in the review are credited to her!
