Unforgettable Wedding Experience at Beach Retreat & Lodge at Tahoe

I cannot express enough how truly incredible our experience was at the Beach Retreat and Lodge for our wedding on November 2nd. From the moment we first toured the venue to the final goodbye at the end of our weekend, everything was beyond perfect, and so much of that is thanks to their phenomenal support and service.

A special thank you goes to Carah Frank, the venue wedding coordinator, who made our dream day come to life in the most seamless, beautiful way possible. Carah was an absolute rockstar. She went above and beyond every step of the way, offering thoughtful suggestions, and handling any curveballs with grace and professionalism. I was particularly impressed by how willing she was to pivot whenever necessary—nothing was ever too much to ask, and she always ensured we felt comfortable and at ease. She never once pressured us into making any decisions; instead, she guided us with a calm, reassuring presence, allowing us to feel confident in every choice.

A true standout that usually doesn't get enough credit, though, was the food. The catering, provided by the venue, was absolutely phenomenal - specifically the filet mignon and risotto balls. Guests are still talking about how delicious these dishes were! The filet mignon was cooked to PERFECTION.

The Beach Retreat and Lodge itself was the perfect backdrop for our wedding weekend. The natural beauty of the location provided a stunning setting, and the staff worked seamlessly to ensure every detail was taken care of. We felt completely supported and cared for throughout the entire weekend. Thanks to Carah and the entire team, our wedding was everything we could have dreamed of—and more. Our guests were blown away, and we will forever treasure the memories we created at this beautiful venue.

If you’re looking for a venue with exceptional service, a breathtaking location, and a team who truly care about making your day unforgettable, look no further than the Beach Retreat and Lodge. Thank you again, Carah and the entire team, for making our wedding experience so magical. You’ve earned our highest recommendation!

Our wedding day was absolutely perfect at the Beach Retreat & Lodge at Tahoe and we would have our wedding exactly the same if we go to have a do over! The location was breathing taking and we received so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was. The convenience of being able to have the ceremony, reception and lodging all in one spot made wedding day completely stress free for us and our guests! Carah was so helpful and communicative with helping us make everything perfect and special to us for our big day. Would highly recommend getting married at this location

The Beach Retreat is a gorgeous place to get married or have a corporate party because you can either use their newly remodeled facility for outdoor/indoor use or you can use their beach and outdoor/tented location. The staff is amazing and the food is wonderful as we've had the privilege of eating here on a couple of different occasions. You can't beat the views either. We love DJing at this venue and know you will love this location too!!!
