Sal J. Prezioso Mountain Lakes Park

eams. With miles of hiking trails, rowboats, a sports field, a pavilion, and a yurt village, this venue allowed us to bring family and friends together for a weekend full of recreation and connection. To this day, many of our guests are raving about what a wonderful time they had playing frisbee, rowing on the lake, and gathering around the campfire. Many of our friends stayed in the yurt village, and we stayed onsite at the charming Laurel Cottage (complete with its own private lake and rowboat!). There are also several affordable, nice hotels within 15-20 minutes for guests seeking more privacy and amenities. In terms of the wedding specific features: there are several lovely spots for outdoor ceremonies. The dining hall is spacious, graceful, and equipped with a full catering kitchen, tables/chairs, and restrooms. The park’s manager and staff were all incredibly kind, gracious, and responsive throughout the entire planning process. Because we couldn’t find too many reviews online, we were a little apprehensive going in. But Mountain Lakes turned out to be the perfect venue for a couple willing to lovingly craft a community-oriented wedding in a natural setting!
