Clean, professional, and perfect location on the lake. Great to find a location like this in NW Iowa
The Shores was beautiful and so accommodating. They have a gorgeous interior space as well a gorgeous patio/staircase out the back that was perfect for the ceremony. I could not imagine having my wedding anywhere else!
