About this vendor
At River View Lodge, we believe weddings should feel less rushed, less stressful, and far more meaningful.
Perched on a bluff overlooking the Mississippi River, our private boutique venue was intentionally designed for couples who want more than just a few hours together. Here, your closest people can stay onsite, slow down, and celebrate alongside you through an unforgettable wedding weekend experience.
From getting ready with your bridal party to hosting your ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, rehearsal dinner, and late-night conversations under the stars — everything flows together in one beautiful, intimate space.
The property features overnight accommodations for up to 20 guests across four river-view suites, an indoor heated pool, private saunas and jetted tubs, multiple indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, and a ballroom designed to transform to fit your vision.
Whether your style is elevated and elegant, modern and moody, or soft and romantic, River View Lodge offers the flexibility, privacy, and calm atmosphere to create a wedding that feels fully present — not rushed from one venue to the next.
This is not just a venue rental.
It’s a place to gather, breathe deeply, and truly experience your wedding weekend together.

The venue is beautiful and the owners were amazing to work with!
RiverView Lodge was the perfect venue for us. The entire space is beautiful and being able to have rooms for our family to stay was an added bonus. We had both our ceremony and rec...
eption there and rented the space for 2 nights. Drew and Chelsea are great to work with and very responsive and willing to help make your wedding or event go perfectly. We highly recommend booking with them!
Incredible wedding venue offering you freedom in an inspiring space.
We loved the idea of renting a venue for multiple days so we could setup with plenty of time to spare, have...
a pool party with friends, enjoy late night saunas, and not have to rush to get everything torn down the night of the wedding. Plus, we could stay at the venue along with some of our wedding party.
Chelsea was in our corner from day one and extremely helpful throughout the whole experience. She connected us with great vendors, helped us work through logistical challenges and was amazing to work with. The venue was all we thought it would be and more. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to have a beautiful venue with a homey feel and the option to have an entire weekend to celebrate.
We got married at the lodge and used the deck space for the ceremony. We had guests seated both in and outdoors and it worked beautifully! The suites for the guests staying at the ...
lodge were very comfortable, clean and spacious. The pool was a delight for the bridesmaids & groomsmen, too. Staying at the lodge for 2 nights allowed us to wind down between set up and tear down. It was luxurious, and gave us the opportunity to slow down and live in the moment. During the ceremony and reception, the variety of space for guests to mingle created an incredible atmosphere that kept our guests happy the whole night. We had a seamless wedding experience at the lodge, and I'd recommend this place to everyone!
Perfect venue for our wedding!
We used RiverView Lodge for our November 2023 wedding and it was beautiful! We had about 100 guests and we were able to comfortably and intimately accommodate everyone for our rece...
ption. We mostly worked with Steve but both owners were very friendly, knowledgeable, and were always available to answer questions. Our guests were very impressed with the venue and location!
River View Lodge is such a beautiful venue! Overall, we had a beautiful wedding and reception there.
We were here for our wedding reception and the weekend after it, absolutely fabulous place! We were doing some late wedding planning and I was concerned they would be booked alread...
y but thankfully they were not. We enjoyed the amenities they had available, it was awesome to have the place to ourselves for a few days! We had the reception here for about 80 people and they were seated very comfortably. Steve was available when needed and made several excellent recommendations. He helped with last minute coordination, in general highly recommend.
After postponing our wedding twice in 2020, we were truly fortunate to stumble upon this gem in Le Claire! We live in Le Claire as well and it’s so sweet and memorable to drive pas...
sed it every day and be able to reminisce back to October 24th, 2020.
The ENTIRE venue is beautiful. It is crazy spacious and just when you think there couldn’t be any more amazing amenities, you find more! The grounds are beautifully kept as well, we had our wedding outside and then moved inside for cocktail hour and reception. It was so nice to be able to have wedding guest move freely around the venue. They could hang out in the bar area, the cozy living room, or dance in the reception hall.
Everyone to this day talks about how amazing the venue was and how they can’t believe something like this exists in the QC! The staff and owner, Steve was so accommodating and relaxed. He even let us hang our handmade chandelier in the reception hall.
This past year has really been difficult on a lot of us, but having our wedding here and staying with our wedding party for the whole weekend was the highlight of our year!
If you’re thinking about considering this place, DO IT!!! This place is breathtaking! And there is nothing quite like the River View Lodge anywhere else around here!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ literally giving this place a 10 star rating!
