About

Black River Homestead is a private wedding and event venue located on 120 secluded acres in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. We specialize in intimate weddings, destination weddings, weekend celebrations, bachelor and bachelorette gatherings, family reunions, and private events that bring people together in a beautiful natural setting.

When you reserve Black River Homestead, you enjoy exclusive access to the entire property. Rather than sharing your venue with other groups, you and your guests can relax, celebrate, and create memories surrounded by forest, trails, open spaces, and the peaceful beauty of the Upper Peninsula.

Our venue combines the charm of an outdoor wedding with the comfort of onsite lodging. Guests can stay in unique glamping accommodations just steps from the celebration, making it easy to extend your event beyond a single day. Many couples choose to host a full wedding weekend, giving family and friends more time to connect and enjoy the experience together.

Whether you envision a ceremony beneath the trees, a reception under the stars, or a relaxed gathering around a campfire, Black River Homestead offers the flexibility to create an event that reflects your personality and style. We are proud to provide an affordable alternative to traditional venues while delivering privacy, natural beauty, and a truly memorable experience.

Located in Marquette County, Black River Homestead welcomes couples and guests from across Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, and beyond who are looking for a unique wedding venue and unforgettable event destination in the Upper Peninsula.
