The Lodge at Mountain Springs Lake Resort

After having our wedding, we see why the Lodge wins so many of the Knot "best of" awards. They live and breathe weddings. Planning our big day with our coordinator Lindsay was both easy and fun. My husband and I had clear expectations of what to plan before each meeting. Lindsay was so helpful in thinking about the little details that might have gone unnoticed, and gave great suggestions on ways to make our day even more special. AND THE FOOD IS AMAZING. They have so many creative and delicious options that are all beautifully plated. We had so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful the wedding was and how tasty the food was! Their waitstaff is top notch, not only being very attentive to our guests but also to our bridal party. And if that isn't enough, the property is STUNNING. We chose to have our ceremony on-site and also did a first reveal, which allowed us to spend more time taking pictures throughout the property. We used their manicured fields and rustic roads for bridal party shots, and snuck away to their breathtaking lake after the ceremony to take what ended up being our favorite pictures of the day. Our wedding day was so special, and that is very much thanks to Robin, Lindsay, and the entire staff at The Lodge. My husband and I would highly recommend the Lodge at Mountain Springs Lake for any couple looking to have an authentic and romantic wedding day that they will never forget.

we were able to book the Lodge for our wedding weekend! Many of our guests commented that it was the best wedding they had ever been to- its a beautiful, quiet setting for a wedding :)

the bridal party and there guests bc we had some time before the ceremony started and we even offered to pay cash and run a tab so our guests can have a drink while waiting for the ceremony to begin. They should if made that happen after all the money we spent. So couples If you have time between the first reveal and the ceremony you should talk to whoever is running your wedding and get that straighten out bc it’s quite embarrassing for us to deny our guests for a glass of wine. Besides that it was a perfect night :)

as warm, professional, and incredibly organized. She had all of the answers to my planning questions. The venue is beautiful and well maintained. The ceremony site is next to the pond and is in the shade in the afternoon (my 4:30 pm ceremony in August was very comfortable). They had a well planned indoor option in case of rain. The cocktail hour appetizers and main entrees were delicious. Multiple guests commented on the high quality of the food. We had the best wedding day I could have imagined. I would absolutely recommend The Lodge to anyone venue hunting.

h all the details which is exactly what I was looking for in a venue. They have everything down to a science which takes a large majority of the stress off the bride and groom. Their different reception packages make it more budget friendly for everyone. Personally we chose the cocktail reception which went over fantastic with our guests. Everyone loved the food which comes out fresh and hot from the kitchen--which is another reason why I preferred this venue vs a place that needs a caterer. If I had to critique one thing here though it would be make sure the wait staff approaches the bride/groom with hourdourves vs leaving it at sweetheart table because SADLY we missed out on alot because we were too busy greeting our guests. Otherwise everything was fantastic. We recieved so many compliments on how beautiful and peaceful our venue was esp the ceremony and we were even told that it was the best wedding some of our guests have ever attended. It is a place we can come back again year after year by staying at the cabins that are on site which is another huge plus. Sharon was great to work with and kept everything organized and under control and is great with responding to any questions and concerns. We were so happy we chose the lodge to spend the happiest day of our life--it is truly our happy place!

can be and my guests cannot stop talking about the gorgeous venue and incredible staff. They are TOP NOTCH and I would recommend this venue to anyone getting married. It was the best day of our life and so much of that was because of the staff and beautiful location. I have not one negative thing to say because it was PERFECT! So happy we chose them!!

The venue is beautiful! If you are looking to save cost on decorations then The Lodge is the way to go. The venue is beautiful as is, you don't need much if any decorations to make it look nice. On top of that the food is AMAZING! You can't go wrong with any of the food options here. The service was incredible all day long. Our wedding coordinator, Sharon, was amazing too! So helpful, always responded quickly to emails. She made the whole wedding planning process enjoyable and made our wedding day run smoothly. I can not say enough good things about this place and the service. We had such a magical day and would not change a thing about our wedding. We got so many compliments about the venue, the food, and the service from guest at the wedding and even after the wedding. Thank you to everyone at The Lodge for making our wedding better than I could have ever imagined.

ied there in the future!!! We can not say enough that our day was absolutely perfect from start to finish and the attention to detail the service and the staff all added to that perfection. We want to sincerely thank every single person who helped play a part in our day for their time, efforts, and kindness to make our day better than our dreams and everything we hoped for and more. We seriously cannot sincerely thank you ALL enough!! Our only wish is that we can come back one day to enjoy the food again!! We cannot say thank you enough to The Lodge at Mountain Springs Lake Resort, it’s staff, the owners, and everyone who made our day the most perfect, dream come true ever. Everything went better than we ever could have imagined or planned, there was so much attention to detail, time spent, and hard work and efforts put forth it is truly almost unbelievable. We knew when visiting the first time that there honestly is NO PLACE out there like The Lodge, and after our day on July 21, 2019 that still holds so very true. From the moment you walk through the doors, you are made to feel special and so much more than just a number or customer. Our guests have raved since our wedding day and on, about the service, the beautiful grounds, the beauty of the venue, the food, and more. Not only did they make us as the Bride & Groom feel special - they insured that each of our guests did as well. I could go on forever about how perfectly wonderful our day way, thanks to The Lodge - but I will leave it at we truly feel so privileged to have had our wedding day here, to have had shared it with all of the staff, and to have such wonderful memories from this place. A billion thank you’s would never be enough. Thank you for facing the heat, braving the storm, sharing a double rainbow, beautiful sunset, and wonderful skys in such an amazing place. We had THE perfect day. We hope to be back some day. A very special thank you to Sharon & Lindsey (as well as all of our recommended vendors from The Lodge) who worked so hard with us for so long to make all of our dreams come true - your work cannot be matched and did not go unnoticed and, you will ALL forever hold such a special place in our hearts. 💕

azing. I literally had people tell me it was the best wedding food they have ever had. The place is gorgeous, and they take care or any needs from the start of your wedding day til the end. They go above and beyond, especially Sharon Potter. They do truly magical work and make sure you have the best day. They made my wedding truly perfect!

wonderful. We had Cindy as our coordinator and she made the whole planning process a breeze. She treated us like family every time we talked and took care of our wedding details in the same manner. Our only downfall was that it down poured the night before our wedding, causing us to move our ceremony indoors since the ground was so soggy. However, everything still went so smoothly and our guests loved the set up indoors. MSL really outdid themselves and our wedding was the sole focus of the day.

ion everyone we worked with provided throughout the entire planning process was superb. Cindy was our planner and day of coordinator, and handled so many details that my experience as the bride was as painless as possible. The outdoor ceremony space and indoor reception hall are BEAUTIFUL and kept in fantastic condition, and Cindy and her team set up all of the minimal decor I provided with such thoughtfulness and added so many special touches throughout the venue. The food was FANTASTIC - the best my husband and I have had at any wedding we've been to, and our guests raved about it. All of the staff were so wonderful and kind throughout our wedding day, making sure that we ate, treating us like VIP throughout, and even sending us home with leftovers, which we thoroughly enjoyed the day after. I'm so grateful that we were able to have our wedding at MSLR, and wholeheartedly recommend them!

about the beauty and intimacy of this setting. Also, regarding the FOOD! Guests were so pleased with both the taste/variety of the food and the service the staff provided. Cindy and Sharron were both wonderful to work with; friendly, accommodating, and helpful... plus they always offer champagne during meetings! ;) If you want a gorgeous, intimate setting for your wedding than look no further. This venue provides just that and more- such as a fantastic bridal/groom suite and honeymoon cottage that was perfect for ending our night as a married couple. This could be the perfect venue for you... give it a visit and you will see for yourselves! :)

was such an incredibly beautiful wedding venue. We really wanted a venue where we could have the ceremony outside and have the reception in a space that still felt connected to the outdoors. The huge windows in the Lodge gave us just that feeling. Cindy was our coordinator for the details the day of, and even though the weather was a bit misty she helped us pull off the outdoor ceremony we were really hoping for all while having a rehearsed backup plan at the ready in case of need. We found our photographer, DJ, and shuttle service -- who were all awesome -- at a tasting event held at the venue, and having Cindy covering the details of what decisions needed to be made by what date and the schedule & flow of the day was such a load off our shoulders. The food choices were all really delicious, and they let us give them the recipe and key ingredients for a specialty cocktail. We got such genuine, rave reviews from friends and family about the food, location, and attentiveness of the event staff. My husband and I wouldn't change a single thing about our wedding, and we'll always cherish the day and the memories of that beautiful venue.

ins on the gorgeous lake is also a total bonus! Getting married under huge canopy trees (next to a pond) and right by the beautiful historic Lodge + red barn was like a dream. We weren’t sure the weather would hold out and the great news is getting married inside the Lodge would have still be just as nice (basically all the walls are glass windows - just gorgeous -- and the green trees are all so visible). Luckily the weather held out for us and we were one with nature on our big day. I have friends who told me our wedding was literally the best wedding or one of the best weddings they have ever attended and MSL was a huge part of why. The Lodge was very supportive, attentive and helped us with any of our specific requests. Cindy was incredibly detailed focused (which I needed) and was always responsive and thorough in all our planning leading up. Cindy, Lindsay, Robyn and Pam made sure that on the day of, everything was covered. I did not have to worry about one single thing. No bride should! We loved the food and our guests only had positive things to say about the hors d'oeuvres, main course and desserts! Photos on the lake are a photographer’s dream and we were blown away by the lake and roads with high trees scenery (amazing first look back drop). We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. My husband’s family worked with Robyn & Pam directly for using the pavilion for our Welcome Party Friday night and sounds like they were a dream to work with too. The party was a fun BBQ and such an amazing way to kick things off with our guests. Can you say fire pit for s'mores? AMAZING! Ben was also very helpful in our Welcome Party planning! We got married labor day weekend so on Sunday we had a bagels and mimosas on the beach (West Lake) - the sun was shining and we hung out in floaties and played corn hole with our guests - it was the perfect relaxing way to end the perfect weekend at MSL. Book MSL before it fills up - if we could do it again, we would 100% choose MSL. Insider Tip- as soon as you book, work with the office to book cabins for all your guests as soon as you can - the cabins can fill up quickly! :) MSL will always be a special place to us and we look forward to coming back in years to come to celebrate our anniversary! THANK YOU SO MUCH CINDY AND MSL! We love you guys and thank you for making our wedding weekend the best weekend ever.

for us. We were worried because the "Plan B" ceremony site isn't great (it's inside, in the same room where our reception was). If you're planning a wedding, definitely visit the Lodge and for sure add on the massive cheese station....my brother and sister-in-law are still raving about the cheese selections. Thank you, MSLR for such a wonderful, perfect dream wedding.

focus on my day and my guests. Every guest we spoke to complimented the venue and the hospitality. The food, the cake, the decor... everything was amazing! I could not ask for more in a wedding venue and reception. Highly recommended.

arm Stand set the flowers they were exquisite and just what the bride wanted. The food was just delicious from salad to cake. Plated appetizingly and served hot. Since the bride has multiple food allergies her food had to be prepared especially for her. The chef exceeded our expectations making her special Hors D'oeuvres and entree. The servers were very professional and were very helpful to all. David Kish was the DJ and kept all on the dance floor. The venue is a photographers heaven. Dirt road, split rail fencing, lake, pond, pergola, beautiful fireplace, slate patio with steps, gardens galore, open fields. The bride has a bridal spa and groom has grooms room. Every detail is covered. I highly recommend the Lodge for your special day... they will even make it more special.

n Springs on Facebook and attended an Open House- I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone shopping for a reception venue. (When I got the wedding pricing over email, I was a little apprehensive because I thought they would be out of my budget.) Once we arrived at the Open House (me, fiancé, MoH, and my mom), I couldn't imagine any other space. The staff was attentive but not overbearing. The service was SOOOO refined without being stuffy. And the food.....OMG.....believe everything you're reading about the food. Far and away the most amazing food ever, not just for a wedding hall. Cindy and Sharon were so wonderful to me during the entire process- from contracts to payments, seating charts to packaging leftovers, we were THRILLED. The Lodge was worth every single penny and more. When I sat down and calculated what we were spending (about $150 a person) and factored in everything it included (cake, cheese display, sit down dinner, full bar, tons of passed appetizers, additional dessert tray, champagne toast, dressing rooms), The Lodge ended up being more cost effective than our other two reception venue choices. The Tasting / Menu Sample event was outrageously decadent. I can't believe it was included in the cost of our wedding. So much food, great music, gorgeous tables, and SO much help from staff and vendors. We did most of our planning on that day. Our wedding photos are spectacular because of the gorgeous grounds. I also suggest to other brides using their preferred vendors. Two notes for future guests, though: 1- if the ceremony is outside, have heel covers or disposable flats. The walkway to the ceremony is all grass. 2- Be prepared for dusty walk from parking area. The parking lot and roads are NOT paved. Thank you, MSLR for making our wedding day an absolute dream come true. We can't wait to come back!!!!

d with me to make my wedding exactly how I imagined. The resort was able to accommodate all of my needs and exceeded my expectations!

tiful and scenic and everyone was so helpful. Truly a perfect wedding.

and enthusiasm. No ask was too small. The setting made for the perfect wedding photos that will last a lifetime. And the food was outstanding....everyone is still talking about 6 months later.

ve that this was the place for us. The venue is breathtaking! This once old farmhouse is both intimate and elegant. From the inside looking out, the banquet room's walls of windows overlook a pond and the outdoor ceremony space, allowing so much of the outdoors to seem to be indoors. The grounds are immaculately landscaped and nestled inside of a wooded setting, alongside a 75 acre lake with private cabins all around that are part of the Mountain Springs Lake Resort. The separate Bridal Suite building is phenomenal with its salon feel in cozy quarters for the bride and her party to prepare for the big day and, as well, a separate space is reserved upstairs in the main building for the Groom and his Gents. We attended the Fall tasting last November and were extremely impressed with the bar and menu options to choose from. Everything was delicious! We chose the Elegant Dinner for our wedding, which proved to be a unanimous hit from all of our guests. Everyone has said how beautiful The Lodge is and how intimate and personal the ceremony was and that the food from appetizers to dessert was fabulous! The service from wait staff was high class and first rate and, as Bride and Groom, we were taken extremely good care of and missed out on nothing. The complimentary private Cottage Suite that is provided to the Bride and Groom on the wedding night is quite special. The Lodge caters to just one event per day, so all of the attention is yours for all of your needs. Cindy and Sharon were always available and quick to respond to any questions and changes that we had throughout the planning process and we could not have been any happier with how it all turned out. They really make you feel like family! If you book early enough and your guests can rent cabins, you are in for a ton of fun leading up to the big day reconnecting, relaxing, fishing, boating, grilling and beaching! To The Lodge Staff, we cannot thank you or speak highly enough! It was truly magical.

were throughout the entire process. I happen to have severe food sensitivities, and they went above and beyond to make sure that I had delicious and safe appetizers, drinks, and meal. It was raining off and on all day, and we wanted to be outside for the ceremony. Luckily we got some beautiful pictures on the grounds prior to the ceremony, but unfortunately Mother Nature decided we were to be inside. It didn't matter though because the room was transformed magnificently to make it feel like we were still in an English Garden (our theme). From start to finish, we had the best experience and the most perfect day!

highly recommend this venue to everyone getting married! We couldn't have asked for a better wedding and The Lodge at Mountain Springs Lake Resort made it happen!
